Foregiveness

Ahhhhhh forgiveness!!!

I personally believe that forgiveness is one of the main keys to living a life you love! Forgiveness is key in releasing things that might be holding you back. Personally speaking I have had a hard time forgiving those in my past and present thinking that they are the reason of my unhappiness until I truly forgave them and released them and their thought patterns from my life. I have felt a big shift and weight off my shoulders! They were/are doing the best they knew how at the time.

Here is a simple step by step to do with me!

• Think of someone you hold animosities towards or someone you think wronged you in some way. This can be someone currently in your life or in your past.
• Take a deep breath. Imagine their face and say (with love) out load or to yourself, "I forgive you, I understand you were only doing the best you knew at the time, I thank you for the lesson you taught me, I release any holding you have on me."
• Forgive yourself for not knowing how to release them sooner. Everything happens for  a reason
• Send them and yourself love!
• Imagine yourself walking up stairs and at the top you raise your hands up and lift your head and say out load. "I AM FREE"!
• Take another deep breath and thank yourself!

Forgiveness can be a process but recognition is the first step. Now honor yourself and the next time you have a choice of what to eat choose the healthier option because you deserve to give your body the optimal nutrients available so you can thrive and live a life you LOVE!

I had been thinking of creating one for a while. 2011 has taught me many things but above all it has taught me that my dreams can become a reality.

Learning to apply simple ways to love a healthy lifestyle and take the initiative to better our physical well being in return creating a better mental well being. It starts with simple steps that become habitual. My posts won't be too long so you won't get bored. I hope you enjoy this adventure with me.
