The past few days on Twitter have been filled with Thanksgiving wishes and gratitude tweets. It's always heartwarming to see so many feeling appreciation for the blessings in their lives. And, definitely easy to spread cheer with like minded folks.
Yet, what about the people that don't feel so dandy right now? The ones that cut you off in line, aren't the best listeners, play the blame game, or the like. If you are one of them, feeling the opposite of anything "good," I want you to know that I'm thinking about you and wishing you well.
I have been in those "stuck" places, personalizing my suffering as if something was wrong with me and lashing out with irritation. Only later to find that the reason I felt so stuck was due to how I was taking care of myself. As much as I desperately wanted to think positively, I literally felt like I couldn't. As much as I intellectually understood that I was acting like a victim, it didn't seem possible to change it.
I didn't get it. I mean, how could this be? Especially for someone that has knowledge and tools to turn it around. Then I evaluated. What was I eating? How was I sleeping? Was my own energy clear or was I easily picking up other people's stuff? How much water did I have during the day? Did I exercise at all?
There are chemical imbalances that happen when the basics of health are not being met. This affects how you think, feel, and act. It reinforced that having a strong foundation of health is the bridge between where you are and where you want to be.
It now made sense why some people struggled with being stuck, with changing their thoughts and feelings, with getting the secret behind The Secret to work consistently. For new seedthoughts to take root, the soil has to be nutrient rich and fertile. Your health is that soil.
Before I made the health connection, I would have done anything to feel better. I didn't get that it would all be easier if I just took care of myself. Instead, I relied on the compassion, love, and well wishes from others. It made a tremendous difference, anchoring me when I didn't know how to do that for myself.
Give yourself the gift of health. Be ready to turn a new leaf in your life, to get clear and start moving forward in a healthy, grounded way. Join me in 2009 for both of these programs. I promise you'll feel better and be glad that you did.
In the meantime, I offer you blessings, during the holidays and every day thereafter, no matter where you're at or how you feel. May we all be blessed.
