After years of
blood, sweat, tears and, eventually, a kind of truce, I've finally discovered
what I've been doing wrong all these years!!!
As a qualified Life
Coach, weight loss is not a topic I've been comfortable contemplating coaching
another person about, as it has been such a major (negative) part of my life
since the age of eight. But as I've continue down this life path I've chosen for myself, my need to grow
spiritually and mentally has led me to research many different topics. So imagine my delight when I came upon a new
concept!
Since I have long
ago come to the realisation that nothing happens “by chance” in life, I accept
that I was meant to find this particular website which promotes the concept of
loving yourself thin. “Yeah right”, I
hear you snort in derision; but hear me out.
The entire concept
is based on the premise of positive self love … after all, if we can’t love
ourselves, how can we expect other people to love us? It also embraces the practice of mind power
and the power of your thoughts. They
speak of releasing weight as opposed to losing weight … why didn't I think of
this?!?!? When you put it out into the
Universe you wish to lose weight, the subconscious thinks, “Wait, if you lose
something, it has to be found. I’ll help
you find that weight and put it right back where it was!” So, instead when you decide to release
weight, the subconscious thinks, “I’ll give you a hand with that … I’ll help
you undo the ties that bind and we’ll release that pesky, unwanted weight right
out into the universe. I’m sure there’s
a soul out there who could use this extra weight.”
What a concept!
But, if you stop
and really think about it for a moment, it makes good sense. Any change you wish to bring about in your
life all begins with a single thought!
There is nothing we do, consciously or unconsciously that doesn’t start
out as a thought. The trick is to be mindful
of your thoughts. Have you ever noticed
that when you’ve consciously decided that today is going to be a good day no
matter what, it is? Why? Because you have consciously decided it will
be so. So why can’t that include how you
view shedding weight? The more positive
your thoughts are the more positive the results are.
I have put this
theory in to practice and over the past 2 months have “released” 4 pounds (2kg)
without making any significant changes to what I eat. All I’ve changed is the way I look at the
situation. Yes, it does mean that I have
made a conscious effort to be aware of what thoughts I have and how they are
worded. But, yes, it has had results.
If you are
interested in finding out more about this concept, email me at dorothy@inspirante.co.za, and I’ll help you to release your inner slenderness.
Wishing you great
success with releasing you weight.
