Bodeci is an attitude. I have heard clients and students of mine refer to a recipe as being "very bodeci". Or a particular restaurant as being "bodeci approved". "I bodecied the chocolate brownie recipe". "I just bought a very bodeci outfit."
What
isn't Bodeci?
 |
| Skinny is no fun |
 |
| Slutty is overdone |
 |
| Starving is unhealthy |
 |
| Ouch! |
 |
| Chic or stick? |
 |
| Dieting is a racket! |
How can you live more BODECI?
- shift your attitude from need to gratitude
- love with a bit more passion
- lose expectations, gain inspiration
- smile because it gives you an instant face lift
- find your best attributes and show them off tastefully
- laugh because it is sexy
- make a positive difference in your world
- moderately enjoy good food
- make the healthier choice at least 80% of the time
- be generous with compliments to others and to yourself
- move more than you sit during the day
- make time for prescriptive exercise
- make time for joy
- be creative with food and movement
Live, Eat, Move Bodeci.... Tell me how you live more Bodeci
Love this Bodeci list...especially the eating healthy 80% of the time. That's a good do-able and reasonable number.
ReplyDeleteGreat post Debra. All those uber-skinny celebs are sick - in body and mind. So sad that they chose to live that way.
ReplyDeleteI would add "stand up straight, tall and proud" to the list. It's something I have to remind myself to do. When I do do it, I feel confident and oh so Bodeci.
Love and kisses!

Hi Debra,
ReplyDeleteI agree, diets are a racket...I never "diet", if I gain a couple pounds I know what to do. Right now my weight is exactly where I like it. Hopefully I can keep it there during the holidays.
Tara Reid looks like a stick with water balloons. And her botched liposuction...Yuck!
