Realize the choices you make.

Say No to others' choices if they're not what you want.
Think about what you really want instead.
Consult your feelings.
Then choose and act.
Go for what gives you pleasure.
Without regrets.
It's the only way we can all be happy, isn't it?

Do you stick to your No decisions?

Can you say No, easily?  And when you do, do you stick to it?
When is it more difficult?
Saying Yes just to please others isn't a good idea.  It creates feelings of resentment.
Just say No!
Then you can do, or continue to do, exactly and only what you want to do.
There's no need to apologize or feel guilty.
Accepting that we all have the right to say No will make the world a better place.

Let go ... and let life ... be!










"Relax. Let yourself go!" - YPYP

Not your health. Don't let that go!
Rather, permit yourself to explore new ideas about healthy living.
Feel the relief of allowing rather than preventing.
Of embracing and expanding rather than shunning and contracting.
Intend to live well.
Regret times when you haven't and don't.
Life and well-being are as good as we allow them to be.

Feelings help. Don't regret regret!

"I will cooperate with all I need to do to reduce my BMI to 25 and then keep it at or below this level." - SRPC

But, exactly what is required to achieve this?
How can I cooperate, if I don't know what's required?
Feelings offer useful clues.
Begin and end with "Does this feel good?"
Cooperation included.
If not, ask yourself (and perhaps others) "Why do I feel this way?"
Agree what is, and act accordingly.

No need to feel bad ... for long!

"Repairing, 'making good', enables me to exchange feeling bad for feeling good." - SRHE

When we discover we've caused harm,
Think and check exactly what harm has been done and how.
It's likely, we'll feel differently about it than others.
What can be done?
Ask ... "How can I make amends?"
Repair the damage.
And then agree all bad feeling (guilt and blame) is gone - great!

"Big boys don't cry!" ... but don't they need to?

"I accept that remorse is a feeling not a thought, that I need to accept it, not shun it, and only then can repair begin." - SRYA

We're often taught not to admit mistakes or fault.
Isn't that a mistake?
How can we learn to love ourselves if we can't love and feel remorse about the errors we make?
Trial and error is all part of the adventure of life and growth.
We are likely to falter on unfamiliar ground.
That needn't stop us treading new pathways.
Ultimately only good can come from it.

Feel it to heal it!

"When I don't feel any remorse about a situation or condition, particularly my health, I look for the harm being done." - SRSR

If we don't feel it, we can't heal it.
Look for the harm being done.
Be grateful when feelings of remorse arise.
Decide to let them come and really feel them.
This is a major step towards repairing the damage.
Find within, your "I can do this!"
Improvement is then inevitable.

Intended In-tension doesn't work - relax!

"To achieve and keep my BMI below 25, I intend to feel the consequences of 'over-eating' before I do so." - SRPI

Ask yourself ...
Have you identified your intention?
Is it clear?
Does it feel good? Any tension?
Even when you're doing it?
Have you imag-in-ed (in-imaged, and imaged-in) the consequences?
Does it still feel good?
OK ... then relax, and do it!

Feeling good about feeling bad!

"I greatly value feelings that inform me I'm off-centre, that things aren't right." - SRTV

Our bodies tell us when things aren't right.
This is good!
Such feelings are to be welcomed ...
And then acted upon.
What is it I really want instead?
That will make be feel better.
Accept this. You know it's right!
