The moment you have children, it’s like your heart gets out of your body, puts on clothes, and walks away.
You have to work with your body when you dance; you can’t shy away from your physicality. For me, it’s really linked to an incandescent way of accepting yourself and projecting. The dancing was at the core from the beginning.
It’s a beautiful thing, diving into the cool crisp water and then just sort of being able to pull your body through the water and the water opening up for you.
It’s absurd that you know more about your car than you know about your body.
I feel like the human body is what it is, and the more you make yourself comfortable with it, the better off you are. Love your body and embrace that.
Even if you don’t have time for a big workout, stretching in the morning and night really changes your body.
It’s amazing that I can inspire little kids to know that you can be short or tall, and your body type doesn’t matter because you can do anything.
You need to listen to your body because your body is listening to you.

If you’re good to your body, your body’s good to you.
The acting part is easy; it’s the preparing – lifting weights and getting your body in tip-top shape – that’s the hard part.

When I had to have a little seizure, I looked up videos of people having seizures. I remember looking up symptoms and what happens to your body. You kind of just lock up and I had to prepare for that. A lot.
When you dive into being an entrepreneur, you are making a commitment to yourself and to others who come to work with you and become interdependent with you that you will move mountains with every ounce of energy you have in your body.

To step into reverence for your body, you must pardon yourself for all you have done and not done to care for it. You must bless what works and accept and embrace all you perceive to be wrong.

A lot of people think about food as fuel, where you need to get nutrients in your body.

Make choices that bring love and joy to your body. It’s not about perfection; it’s about love and gratitude for an amazing body that works hard and deserves your respect.
Completely, in the end, being at a club like FC Barcelona who must win titles, you have to stay motivated, and often times, using your head is more important than using your body.
You’ve got muscles and you use them everywhere else in your body when you want it. Why not your face?
Movement is exercise. Seemingly simple things – taking a walk, for example – can be just the spark your body needs to get back on a healthy track.
When I was dancing, whether it was the music or the story, the question was ‘Why am I doing this piece, and why am I dancing?’ It is exactly the same when you are acting. You have a very close relationship with your body movement. You have to find the physicality of your character.
A shoe is not only a design, but it’s a part of your body language, the way you walk. The way you’re going to move is quite dictated by your shoes.

I do think that the desire to permanently alter your body is triggered by this easy access to Photoshop on your phone.

It’s just so weird how you get so used to what we do: I could go in there and wrestle main events on Live Events for 25-30 minutes, but I couldn’t really get the sheets off me in bed. It’s weird how that works. Your body just adapts.
I believe that both people in a marriage should be concentrated on health, and you should be inspiring each other. How to make your mind healthier, how to make your body healthier. Healthy mind, healthy body, healthy soul.
I think the thing that I think about the most when I consider my father’s philosophies is attaining that third stage of performance where you no longer have to think about what you’re doing; you’ve worked long and hard enough to be able to have your body respond when you want it without your mind getting in the way.
Hunger changes you. As your body begins to claw at you, your stomach churning in anger, every person who shares a photo of the fancy meal they’re about to eat is no longer your friend.
If you’re going to train your body, it would be a really good thing to also train your brain.
Anytime you turn on your own concept of God, you are no longer a free man. No one needs to put chains on your body, because the chains are on your mind.
You have little to no response to AAV the first time your body sees it. If you used the same vector twice you would want to bump up immunosuppression. I believe there will be many new ways to deliver genes in the future as well.

Everybody has a spiritual body. Everybody has a physical body, and so your spiritual body is the stuff that holds all of your emotions like your body holds your organs, your food, your muscles, your water. Your spiritual body holds your emotional state and your mental state.

Simply switching to a healthy, plant-based diet can lessen stroke risk by reducing cholesterol and blood pressure, flooding your body with antioxidants and improving blood flow.
In figure skating, your body can only last for so long. I can’t be 50 and trying to skate but I can be 50 and be in fashion, so I have to look to my future and what I want to achieve.
As an athlete, you have to become quite selfish with your time and your body and your training.
Always keep your mind as bright and clear as the vast sky, the great ocean, and the highest peak, empty of all thoughts. Always keep your body filled with light and heat. Fill yourself with the power of wisdom and enlightenment.
Ninety percent of touring is a logistical maneuver, moving your body and everyone else’s from one city to the next. You’re like a piece of gear. Then you jump out of the box, get onstage, and play. That sounds cynical, but it sucks to move around so much.
