STWDM (Shedding The Weight Daily Meditations)

A few weeks ago, I ran across a free 21 day meditation serious titles Shedding The Weight.  It was provided by Deepak Chopra and Oprah Winfrey.  I was such a great tool, and would be will worth the investment!  I thought I would share my notes from the series with my readers and clients.    One of my favorite quotes comes from Mr. Chopra:

  "In the midst of movement and chaos, keep stillness inside of you."

Transformation can cause a lot of chaos.  It can be REALLY hard.  Transformation is much more than the food we eat and the exercise we perform.  It is also an adventure in mental/emotional healing.  I am a firm believer that whatever is going on inside of you WILL ultimately be reflected on the outside.  I am not a therapist, or psychologist, but these readings (I believe) can help you create awareness of how excess and heavy can reach through and affect many parts of our lives.  

There are separate posts for each day of the mediation - followed by some journal ideas that I found from another fellow fan of these meditations at https://myoprahlessons.com/ . 

Enjoy...hit me up if you have any questions!

STWDM2 - Transforming Heavy to Light

Day 2 Message: “When you allow your ways to be light you go high.” ― Raphael Zernoff In today’s meditation, we explore how to transform the heaviness in our lives to our natural state of lightness. The heaviness of our burdens comes from our attachment to past pain and trauma, as well as anxiety and fear of the future. As we learn to live consciously in the present moment, we find we don’t have to do anything to let go of burdens of pain and fear – they let go of us. Our natural state of balance in life is lightness and ease. O:  Everything in nature happens with lightness and ease in the moment, no effort.  Grapes ripen on the vine, roses bloom, the sun shines even through the darkest clouds – effortlessly.  When we commit to the lightness and ease of the present moment, we experience endless renewal and boundless abundance.  This is our essential nature.  This energy is our light.  Welcome to Day 2, Transforming Heavy to Light.  When you wholehearted...

I Am A Child Of God

Willa loved music, and so in addition to a beautiful piano rendition of  "Come Thou Fount" (my favorite hymn) played by a cousin, we also sang this version of  I Am A Child of God.  When I read these words, it was as if Willa was speaking to me - to us - through them. Here is a link to listen to the song while you read the words. MUSIC I am a child of God, and he has called me home. My earthly journey's through but still, I do not walk alone. (He) leads me, guides me, walks beside me, helps me find the way, (He) welcomed me with open arms. I live with Him today. I am a child of God and I have gone ahead. My earthly life was brief but oh, such peace and love you gave. (You) loved me, held me, stood beside me and though I cannot stay. (You) gave me much to help me and I live with Him today. I am a child of God and I will wait for you. Celestial glory shall be ours, if you can but endure. (I'll) lead you, guide you, walk beside you. Help you find the way. (I'll) welc...

Are YOU ready?

I am SO excited to get started!  Almost 4 years ago I reached a huge goal I had made for myself...I had successfully shed 100 pounds through LEARNING about basic nutrition and exercise, and then little by little COURAGEOUSLY adopting those principles into my life.  I am happy to report that for this foodie (I am  still one at heart) those principles which seemed so hard initially are now just part of who I am! The question came:  Now what?  And then, I uttered words that made me almost cry  "I want to be a trainer."  I wanted to throw up!  I had been obese my ENTIRE life...in fact I do not have a childhood memory where I was a healthy weight.  I did not even take gym in high school due to the complications of my obesity!  But that inner girl....the one who had been struggling to get free...WANTED it.   And so, it became the next mountain to climb. Here we are!  I have now been certified through NASM for almost 2 years, worked f...
