What I put into my mind is so important. Junk in junk out. I have stopped watching the news. I didn't think that it had a huge impact on my thoughts but who am I kidding. I catch myself saying the meanest things to myself. I call myself stupid and scold myself a lot of the time. I say things like "What is wrong with you?!" So I have started to say things back like "There is nothing wrong with me. I am great the way I am." When I find myself scolding myself for not exercising enough or not getting 10,000 steps a day I pause and repeat "I am good just the way I am thanks" I repeat the Serenity Prayer all day. God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change (my past) the courage to change the things I can (my present) and the wisdom to know the difference. Deep breathing inhaling courage and exhaling fear. One day at a time, sometimes one minute at a time, one breath at a time. Accepting me, even the negative, frightened of failure so she scolds and nags, that me. Loving me through and through by having those feelings and encouraging that self to have heart. Because the change is happening slowly but surely, everyday. My intention today is to heal with love. Namaste
