This is an amazing and inspiring post! Exactly where I want to be and right where I am headed. No lies, just Love. *Read for soul food. -------- I used to be embarrassed to wear a bow tie. 16 months ago I stepped on a scale and nearly vomited when the pin crossed 200 pounds. A lot has changed since then. I did a lot of soul searching and was blessed with epiphany after epiphany about how my body, mind, and spirit are intimately connected. Today, I weigh 159 pounds. I eat whatever I want. I always order dessert. I workout when that feels like a fun thing to do, but usually my body is fine with 10-minutes of yoga each morning. So, what changed? I became intimately familiar with my body and vibration. I learned how to hear, feel, and speak with my body. I realized the power that my thoughts have over how my body operates. I realized how powerful my mind is. I quit drinking booze because it was more important for me to feel good in every moment, than to trick myself into thinking I was having a good time. I still fall back into old patterns of thought every now and then, but Im MUCH better at finding alignment. Im much better at feeling good. Im much better at turning my focus to the thing that feels best. I get better at this every day. I stopped being afraid of things. I removed all guilt from the equation. I realized that GUILT was the only thing that kept me from becoming everything I wanted to become. I realized that true forgiveness is void of all guilt. I forgave myself. I fell in love with my body. I fell in love with my mind. I fell in love with my soul. I fell in love with food. I fell in love with every thing, every person, every moment. I stopped hating where I was and in doing so got to where I wanted to be. Am I there yet? No—I will never get there. I will never get there because in every moment I am birthing new desires, I am gaining more wisdom, I am becoming more of who I have always been. I am always EXPANDING—just no longer around the waistline. Today, I feel great. Im enjoying the adventure. Im excited about whats next. And I love the way I look in a bow tie. Happy Easter!
