What Message Are You Sending the Universe
Why are human beings like this?
We willingly do all the shit that is bad for us – smoke, drink, eat fast food, sleep with strangers, ingest chemicals…
and forget about the stuff that is good for us… move your body, eat healthy, meditate or pray… It feels good, too. (do me a favour and just nod, yes)
As I mentioned in my VBlog update today, it’s been WEEKS since I made time for meditation.
Why is this important to me?
Well, I’ve discovered that unless I sit still,
slow my head down,
shut my self talk up – I...

May 2/10 POWERShop

I became an expert at losing some weight and gaining more back in my early 20’s.
I would ‘try’ anything, and ‘tried’ everything – except surgery – telling myself (and anyone who would listen) that I can’t lose weight – it’s my genetics – my metabolism is slow – blah, blah, blah (sound familiar?).
