Why are you restricting?
Why are you binging?
Why are you exercising like a crazy person?
Chasing the body of a photoshopped version of a model?
Why are you beating yourself up?
Being so freaking hard on your body?
Why are you abusing yourself?
Do you know?
The reasons why you disown your power.
The reasons why you kill your dreams.
The reasons why you take away pieces upon pieces upon pieces of yourself.
Do you know?
The reason why you just cannot seem to love yourself.
The reasons why you keep on trying but never getting to true peace around food.
The reasons why you always end up at a random Weight Watchers meeting.
Do you know?
Because it’s so simple.
It’s so obvious.
But so elusive.
The truth is:
it doesn’t matter why.
What matters is:
what do you want?
What do you actually want, desire, covet with all of your heart?
What do you need?
Without being clingy, without being desperate.
But what do you want more than anything else?
And what is keeping you from giving it to yourself?
Your pride?
Your fear?
Your desperation?
The belief that you won’t get it anyway?
That you don’t deserve, aren’t good enough, not worthy?
What do you need?
In this moment, right here, what do you need?
What is your soul, your body, your everything yearning for?
What would make your entire being vibrate with LIFE?
And why are you not giving it to yourself?
Are you scared?
Do you find excuses?
How about putting it out there?
And then letting it come to you?
Or just simply giving it to yourself!
Now!
How would that feel?
What emotions, thoughts and irrational fears would arise?
How would you push it away?
Because that is what you do.
You’re pushing your life away.
You’re pushing your freedom away.
The universe is handing it to you but you keep denying it,
not wanting it, claiming it’s not there.
What do you want?
Seriously!
Instead of wanting food, what it is that you actually truly are longing for?
Love, sex, intimacy?
Money, work, a career?
Relationships that go deep?
What do you desire?
A different home?
Peace of mind?
Another baby?
What do you actually need to feel?
Secure?
Excited?
Alive?
And how can you create these feelings for yourself right now
and every day for the rest of your life?
Here’s the thing:
You HAVE the capacity to call in those feelings NOW.
Don’t believe me?
Put on music that always makes you want to get up and dance.
How are you feeling now?
Upbeat?
You just called in a higher state of being.
Still don’t believe me?
Think of the last time you had seriously hot sex –
or imagine having the most intimate experience with your biggest crush.
With me?
How does your body feel?
Aroused?
You just called in a different state of being.
You can do the same with wanting to feel free
confident
aligned
at peace
full
fulfilled
rich
powerful
in love with your super awesome goddess body.
You can claim it for yourself.
Then sit back at watch it happen
or simply create it right now.
What do you want?
Being in love with life?
Your life?
Then create a life you can love.
You’ve got the power
– even if you don’t believe me just yet.
Those barriers, they’re all in your head.
Crush them by claiming what you want.
Write it down.
Say it to yourself.
Give yourself the permission to have it.
So, why do you restrict?
Why do you binge?
Why do you hate on your body and obsess about your weight?
It doesn’t matter (for now; it matters, but it doesn’t) but what matters
is exactly what you want instead.
So, tell me, tell yourself, what is it your heart cannot wait to feel, have, own, pursue, create?
Stop waiting for a guy
for food
for your body to fulfil those desires that only YOU can and will fulfil.
It’s your job to do jus that.
Nobody else can and will ever do that.
Even though we hope, we desire, we dream.
We have to love ourselves first.
Fully.
Unapologetically.
On levels another person will never love us.
That is our reason of being here.
That is what you want. That’s what we all want.
We just keep on searching in the wrong corners of our world.
Practice, observe, claim.
Repeat.
Make yourself flow.
Make yourself happy.
Make yourself feel the way you want others to make you feel.
So, why are you restricting?
Why are you binging?
Why are you exercising like a crazy person?
Because you seek love.
