If you wish to drown, do not torture yourself with shallow water. ~ Bulgarian Proverb

This Beliefnet blogger is just back from teaching a week-long workshop (entitled: Our Lady of Weight Loss ~ Your Fat-Burning Journey to Sveltesville) and wants to know ...

What are you tolerating? Putting up with? STOMACHING?

An Illuminating Question that LIGHTENS.
This question was discussed at length this past week, as we explored, discovered, and investigated the various things in our lives that are WEIGHING us down. Things from dust behind the refrigerator to people in our lives; from bad hair days to our own thoughts and beliefs.

I promise you that as you take the time to be honest, be brave, look deep and write down at least 50 things that you are STOMACHING, you will be brought to a place where you can see, feel, experience and even taste your 'lite.'

The things that you are STOMACHING are in your WAY.
Imagine all your tolerations as stones, twigs, and rocks - maybe even fallen trees - which you have essentially placed (tossed or thrown) onto your path; that you now unconsciously maneuver around.

These stumbling blocks slow us down and sap our energy. As you clear your path, you will build your 'clear sailing muscle.' It will become increasingly easier to recognize and to say no to anything that would slow you down.

Have Second Helpings.
Let the weight and heaviness of your tolerations go. Create an airy and spacious path. Have second helpings of fun and happiness.

What are YOU stomaching? What's weighing YOU down?

Spread the word (NOT the icing!),

"[All Is Forgiven, Move On] offers a place to start, as well as ways of following the difficult path to keeping that weight off, forever. Taylor may seem one French fry short of Happy Meal, but when you think about what she's saying it begins to make sense." ~ Chicago Daily Herald
