Simplified Meaning:

Each person has full control over their own body and mind. Just like a king or queen has complete power over their country, you are the boss of your own self. Imagine you are the ruler of a small island; you decide what happens there. In the same way, you get to make choices about your life, like what you eat, how you act, and what you think. No one else should make those decisions for you; they are all yours to make. This idea teaches us to take responsibility for ourselves and be confident in our decisions.
