So, believe it or not, I say thank you thighs, thank you butt, for all you’ve done. There are times I look myself in the mirror, and say to my body, “I’m going to need your help.” All my energies are working with me, like a posse. Other people work and work, never getting anywhere; it’s because they never appreciate their bodies.

One day, while I worked with Denzel, I said, “Oh my gosh, my body’s having a bad day!” Denzel replied by repeating my mantra, “Show it love! Show it some love!” And I was back on it! That loving energy is miraculous!

Kacy, where did the idea about loving your body, and its individual parts, come from?

This idea evolved within me. I’m a student of metaphysics for many years. I chose a certain path. I had a really abusive second marriage and I said I’ll never do that again! I say thank you for the lesson, but that’s all. I know I do not want that kind of man again. When I see a fool, my brakes are on!

Instead, I started asking God and the universe for people in my life who have good qualities. That’s the kind of man I have now. It’s good to be nice to people. Don’t ever let someone treat you like damaged goods.

When you put what you want up front, that’s what you get. So say, “I love you thighs, I love you body. Thank you for getting me through that.”

I think people should embrace their lives and believe in the magic within you. It’s activated when you give yourself attention in a loving way. Be gentle, but encouraging. Have a sense of power and grace to get going. Believe in your body. This is your body. Make it a part of your life.

When you think about fitness, think bigger. Take a fitness week of seven days and actively participate in exercise, yoga, rest, massage, and meditation. These are aspects of how to balance yourself emotionally, spiritually and physically. Go for it. Don’t set yourself up to fail by limiting yourself to exercising just once or twice a week and not getting results. Empower yourself. This is just like sending men to the moon. They said it couldn’t be done, but it was.

I’m passionate about this! Show It Love and the rest will follow.
