SOMETIMES THE WEIGHT YOU NEED TO LET GO OF ISN’T ON YOUR BODY

Imagine we are all born with lots of pockets.

Imagine each time you go through some kind of trauma or negative event in your life, you put a stone in a pocket. 

The size of the stone you put in would reflect the significance of that event.

If you appropriately dealt with the experience at the time, you get to take the stone out.

Chances are, by the time you get to, say, 40-50 years old, you may have a fair few stones in your pockets.

Imagine walking around with all those stones in your pockets.

How bogged down, held back and exhausted would you feel?

Well, this is essentially what we are all doing in life. 

A lot of us are walking around with pockets full of stones.

Some people have a house full of clothes with pockets of stones, which leads to depression, anxiety and overwhelm.

Now imagine that you’d got into personal development early on.

Over the years, you’ve been dealing with each stone through counselling, coaching, energy work, talking to mates, forgiving people in your past… whatever way you need to in order to get rid of a few stones. 

While you may still have a few stones to deal with, you can generally go about your day without feeling like you’re bogged down.

You realised over the years how much lighter you felt each time you deal with your stones. 

And so these days, there are barely any stones going in your pockets because you choose to deal with the triggers along the way instead of resolving things later.

As a result, life is much happier!

You only have a few teeny pockets with pebbles in.

Much lighter!

I love this analogy for the emotional baggage that we accumulate that can hold us back.

Over the years we can feel so heavy and bogged down by our accumulated experiences and traumas.

This can lead to burnout, mental health issues and dependence on avoiding our emotions through addictive behaviour. 

We realise we just aren’t who we used to be anymore. 

When you start healing the shit that’s holding you back, interesting things happen to your body and mind.

Body weight can suddenly start dropping off after years of yo-yo dieting.

We feel lighter not just physically, but mentally too.

We feel more clarity around who we are and what we want in life.

We feel more able to set boundaries and love ourselves as a priority. 

We start treating our bodies better because we love ourselves more.

We feel happier. 

Want some of that? 

I created my online course, “21 Days To Letting Go Of The Weight”, for exactly that reason.

You can check out a sneak peek of it here with this link.

My course is for those who are happy to get an online course done in their own time (it doesn’t have to be in 21 Days btw, you can go at your pace)

If you feel like you’d need more accountability to get this done with me walking alongside you, book in a call with me here and let’s chat about how the premium programme can help.
