A Woman’s Life Journey of Body
Acceptance Part Three:Moving into Body
Acceptance for Women
 For women,
body image issues can continue to dominate our acceptance of self through out
the college and adult years, ranging from focus on parts of our body we do not
like to ways that we feel in our body movement.
A woman’s journey of body acceptance takes many twists and turns as we
go into childbearing years, our mid life and as we age into our sliver years. I have found, like the writer of the Real
Simple article, that my journey as been similar in accepting this bigger built,
less coordinated body of mine! |

 “Twas the night
before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there.
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads.
And mamma in her ‘kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had just settled our brains for a long winter’s nap.
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter…. |

 Nature is a
wonderful teacher if we will take the time to watch and learn. It is God’s way of showing us how life has
similarities in all living beings.
If you ever
have had the sheer pleasure of watching brilliant bluebirds in your backyard,
you have probably noticed some unique behaviors regarding their nesting boxes
at different seasons of the year.
Today the
bluebird provided an illustration of how we, as mothers, grieve the past seasons
of life, especially the years of childrearing. |

In the hectic season of being a mother of toddlers, I have put away my own toys to make room for blocks, Little People, and books that entertain my kids. Honestly, I believe I originally put them away to keep them from being torn, slobbered on or eaten, but gone they are all the same. The excuse over the last few years for leaving my toys “in storage” however has been lack of time. As a mom, wife, and therapist I certainly don’t have time to “play,” right? Or do I? Surely I do |

I sit here today with so many tasks to accomplish; feeling rushed and knowing there is not enough time in my day to tackle all my goals. I keep asking myself, "Why?". Why is it so important to take my child to the doctor, get the house cleaned, the shopping complete, do laundry, change sheets, chauffeur kids to and from school, and meet with friends all in one day? (Let me put a side note that this is my “day off”.) Why is it I feel so much better if I accomplish all of these tasks? |
