I read something interesting. Some people are getting body tattoos instead of using medical-alert jewelry that states information like "diabetic" or "do not resuscitate".
As an Energy Medicine practitioner, I want to bring to your Attention that your body is mostly water and it absorbs any words that it comes into contact with.
Therefore, if you label directly on your skin "diabetic" or another message, you are sending that message into your subconscious mind that this is who you are or what you want to experience. You are then "owning" this label or disease for as long as the message is tattooed on your body.
I have two small, discreet tattoos with powerful and meaningful symbols for who I am and my purpose in the world.
If you want to create a life of health and well-being how about getting a tattoo that says "Love"; "Divine Being"; "Beautiful" or "I am Health"?
