\"Our<\/a><\/span>What are you ‘giving up’ for Lent? What are you ‘gaining’ from Lent?<\/em>
\nI am so inspired by the emails that y’all are sending me; telling me what you are giving up and\/or adding to your lives during Lent (the 40-day liturgical season that begins on Ash Wednesday and concludes at the Great Vigil of Easter<\/em>)!
\nSome are giving up …
\n… SUGAR<\/a>! most especially HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP<\/a>! (gaining health)
\n… adding WALKING<\/a> to their lives. (giving up being a couch potato)
\n… another is honoring herself by giving up “beating myself up for not living according to the rules, whims, and strictures of others-especially when it comes to what I should eat.” (gaining self-love)
\nCatholic or not, how might you use this period of time to explore the Yin and Yang of Lent and how you might live a healthier lifestyle and fully honor your body!
\nPlease comment below … what does the yin and yang of Lent look like for you?<\/em>
