Passionate about losing weight and being healthy?

"YES - You Expect Success!" - YsPp

Praying? What's the point?

Picture plus passion is prayer.

Are you passionate about losing weight and being healthy?

Can you picture it? Being slimmer? Being healthier?

Praying with any doubt won't work!

Be sure what you want, ask for it, and let it come.

Then celebrate the inevitable!

Yes TV? No!

"What's really important here, now? See, accept and value it." - YaTv

Drinking more water. Eating more fruit. Continuing to swim.

Focusing on what I eat and drink.

Valuing myself, my health, my fitness and feeling good.

Changing my diet has changed my physique, my attitude and my relationship with Self.

I see and accept things differently now.

Especially the consequences of what I eat and drink.

And the changes are good.

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.

Healthy living goes on and on ...

"Permit yourself a vision beyond completing your current goal." - YPPV

Yes is not the end. It's a beginning.

What's next?

Continuing the journey of healthy living.

With a new goal.

Seeing it already achieved.

Building on the good work already done, not undoing it.

Then seeing what feels right beyond that.

"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!

Where's the harm?

"I am open to exploring new ways to access and feel genuine remorse about harm caused." - SRHO

To feel remorse about harm caused, we've got to identify the harm.

So, ask yourself ... "Where's the harm?"

In this biscuit, cake, snack ... etc.

Feel it ... with com-passion. Then decide ...

Am I really going to do this? Do I really want this?

And the consequences?

Whatever you decide, do it with feeling!

Finding fault, fixing it & feeling fine!

"I feel remorse (sad) when I mistake negative (not bad) thoughts and feelings (not guilt) about my weight, shape and health as part of my identity." - SRNI

It's OK to feel sad but not bad when we make mistakes.

Don't feel guilty or b-Lame. Guilt and blame help no-one.

Find the fault, find a way to fix it, and feel fine.

Treat yourself - well!

"Giving myself permission to be responsible for my health allows delightfully different outcomes." - SRYP

Enjoy responsibility - your ability to respond.

Our bodies and health are responses to how we treat them.

Treat yourself - well!

Making healthy mistakes

"I am responsible for my mistakes, the consequences to my health and impact on others." - SRSR

Mistakes are OK. They're more than OK.

Provided we learn from them ... and celebrate that learning!
