Close Kept Secrets to Weight Loss Lesson #46

Filed under: Diet_Tips — admin @ 1:24 am

I was asked a question recently and thought I would pose the same question to you.

What monetary value do you put on your health?

Think about this. You put a monetary value on your home, on your car, on your furniture..all these things have a monetary value and yet they can be replaced.

Now, let’s look at your health. Is it irreplaceable?

I asked a friend this same question, and she said her health is priceless. Well, what exactly does priceless mean in the context of health.

Before we do this, let’s look at an heirloom which is considered priceless to many. Thus, it’s irreplaceable. You take care of that heirloom. You place it in a space that is protected. You focus on that heirloom with such profound love because you want it to last so you can pass it on to family members. The intent is this heirloom stays in wonderful condition in order to preserve its meaning to all the family who will care for it for years to come. We look at that heirloom and say this is a part of us and it has incredible value.

Well if our health is priceless, then shouldn’t we be treating it in the same respect as our heirloom? Shouldn’t we be preserving our health and loving our bodies so that our family gets the benefit of what meaning we serve in their lives.

Yet, how many of us actually do this on a conscious level?

Most of the population doesn’t take the time nor invest in themselves monetarily choosing those things that will affirm nurturing, love and protection for its most valuable heirloom - YOU! Giving to ourselves each and everyday and investing in those things that affirm health is the most valuable thing you can give your family.

Which would you rather give your family? A necklace passed down from your great grandmother or a healthy, vibrant YOU filled with love for yourself? Which one has more value to pass down from generation to generation?

I can speak about this as my mother died in 1987. I have my mother’s wedding rings that I will pass on, and they do have great meaning. However, I would choose to have a mother who knew how to love herself, who knew how to take care of herself so that I could have learned from her in how to do this for myself. What greater gift is there to pass on?

I spent many years in struggle not understanding how to love myself. It wasn’t just from my mother; it was from my father as well. Neither one of them knew how to love themselves.

Guess what? Now, I have learned how to do this, and am showing my daughter, Lindsay, what this looks like. She, in turn, is finding incredible value from this as she is understanding and taking action in how to do this for herself. As a 21 year old intelligent, beautiful woman, she does the following:

eats nutritious foods
exercises
surrounds herself with positive people
reads spiritual books
loves spending time with herself
gets massages
sees a Naturopathic doctor and nutritionist
sees a chiropractor
dates a young man who treats her with kindness
a senior at the University of Washington majoring in business, and regularly makes the Dean’s list

I am so proud of Lindsay. This picture of her would have looked much different if I hadn’t learned how to lead by example

So let’s go back to my original question. What monetary value do you put on your health?

My answer to this question is.over a million dollars. Thus, I choose to invest my money where I will get the greatest return and that is in myself and Lindsay to keep affirming loving ourselves. Look at this priceless gift that will be passed down to generations to come. Is it worth it? Every penny!

I think of the money that it cost me when I lived in struggle, the energy and the time. Then I have to figure in the monetary amount impact to everyone else when I didn’t love myself.

Protect and nurture YOU to pass down the value to your future generations.

Close Kept Secrets to Weight Loss Lesson #48

Filed under: Diet_Tips — admin @ 1:23 am

Giving our burdens to God is the simplest thing we ever have to do. We don’t need to worry about all the details and how things are going to show up for us. It is that faith which Divinely guides us in our next step of action.

How often though do we give ourselves over to God’s loving embrace?

Did you know that things show up for us in the form of intuition, ideas, people, books? Sometimes we get disillusioned as we believe it’s supposed to be in the form we want it to be.

I asked for money, where is it? I asked for a better relationship, where is it? I asked for better health, where is it?

Guess what?

God always delivers. He knows exactly what you need, and the mustard seed is planted.
The harvest is here when God believes you are ready.

We do get impatient while we’re waiting for the harvest. We want to hurry up and dig up the seed to ensure it’s growing. We work ourselves with worry wondering if that seed will ever produce our abundance and prosperity. What we don’t see is the miracle that is taking place underneath the ground to deliver our bountiful harvest. The Universe, in its intelligence, is cultivating the right environment.

Sometimes the answer is right in front of us, but we miss the opportunity.

When we let go of the outcome, we let God and the Universe do the work. We have planted the seed. Our only job now is to be grateful that things are evolving exactly as they should and the delivery date is right here, right now.

God intends that we are joyful in every moment, regardless of our “perception” of our circumstances.

Trust in yourself. When you trust in yourself, you trust in the wisdom that created you.

How does this relate to your health and weight loss?

It is no accident that you are reading this. It is no accident that you have subscribed to this newsletter. You are right where you need to be.

You only need to ask yourself one question.

Is this the answer I’ve been looking for?

I don’t know if I’m your answer. I don’t know if I’m exactly what you need. What I do know is that God intends me to help people with their health, simply and beautifully.

Let me see if I can help you make your decision.

Just recently, I was faced with a decision in leasing commercial space in a healing center in Silverdale, Washington. I had heard a strong message that I was supposed to get out in the community more, but I didn’t ask to lease space. I have been doing my energy and weight loss practice from my home. The landlord, who was leasing the space, called and said she had seen my flyer for my weight loss program and Isagenix products so I thought she was calling me to help her.

No, she was calling me to see if I wanted to lease space.

So I closed my eyes and said, “Okay, God, if this is really meant for me, I want a zebra to come running through my living room. Then I’ll know it’s really from You.”

Now, this seems pretty silly, but I sure was going through some of this self-talk and also putting my fingers over my eyes and saying, “When I open my eyes, I want you to send me a clear sign that this is what you mean by getting out in the community more.”

There was no zebra! No black and white of anything!

I then called a friend asking for assistance with my decision who said these words, “How many more people can you help if you are more visible in the public?”

This is exactly what I needed to hear and I made my decision to lease the space. It’s been a very spiritual experience, but you want to know something? It’s what I have envisioned for many years. I could picture myself doing this.

When Arnold Swarzennager was interviewed asking how an immigrant could possibly be Governor of California, this was his response. I pictured myself doing this and now I’m just living that picture.

What are you picturing for yourself?

We miss opportunities because we don’t want to believe that God provides in ways that we don’t quite expect. We miss opportunities because we focus on the lack of money in order to take that step in faith.

God always provides and remember it may not be in the form that we expected. Did you know your salary at your job is only a channel; it is not your Source. Your abundance only comes from one Source and He sends it to you through many different channels.

Hopefully, I’ve helped you. Make the decision that is right for you.

Choose to have abundant health. I can show you how.
