That voice in your head is holding you back

Have you ever wondered how much of your external life is being dictated by the voice in your head?

Pay attention to what the words are that this voice likes to say. If they tend to be, this is great, I love this. Wow. How lucky am I? Oh my gosh, I couldn't be more in love with life or if they tend to be, why me? Oh Great. Here we go again. God, I'm so tired. Why can't I get a break? Why it does this keep happening?

Which one's more common to you?

I know for me, especially in the past when it came to needing a break, slowing down, admitting just how worn out I really was, how tired I was of chasing this food, that food, this diet, that diet, this exercise, that exercise, this magic supplement, that magic superfood, and having that perpetual sense of let down that I done that one thing and done it diligently without relief or real change…..those voices were perpetually negative.

I spent years doing that to myself, even as a doctor, because the truth was I was wearing myself out, I wasn't resting, I wasn't renewing me, I wasn't giving to me.

I was giving to everyone else but me because the voice in my head said, if I don't who will.

To change that, I had to get really clear on what the consequences were of continuing that path. When I evaluate clients in my program, I use the same processes that woke me up and I hear from them the same thing that I heard inside myself.

“Oh my God, it's real, I really am that worn down….there's a reason why my joints hurt,  a reason why I have headaches, a reason why I'm stressed out and I don't sleep, and why my body won't release weight, why I feel old and frumpy and kind of gray and foggy and not creative and disconnected and a bit hopeless.

When I could see it in black and white in front of me verified it was like a release. It was like getting seen for the first time and then suddenly I could look at myself with compassion and say, my gosh, you have been working so hard on every aspect of your life and you haven't been giving back to you, and that's why your thyroid doesn't work, your adrenals are tired, your cells are ageing, and that's what I hear from women all the time.

When we begin the process and finally get the results back and we see what's happening, it's both daunting... I hear from many of them, “my God, I really didn't expect that it was going to be so deep” and then hope-filled because there's an actual path forward that is compassionate and kind and understanding to our system, which means the healing is inevitable.
Before cultivating this understanding, I had already done the functional medicine path, the hormone replacement path, Keto, veganism, raw veganism, CrossFit, Bikram Yoga.

I done every path that had a name and none of them ever bothered to give credence to my exhausted cells.

I was relegated to riding that same hamster wheel around and around and around and around...and maybe that's where you are right now.

This is certainly where the women I work with are when they start….too many of us are wasting our life riding that wheel.

There is no way we cultivate something new and brilliant and amazing, circling this same space over and over and overdoing the same things by different names.

Yet, I get it seems hard to trust.

How is there a different path

I felt the same way until I realized that no one had ever helped me understand the role of the stress response and how it affects cell energy and how the stressful world I was living in was not going to change, which means I had to have an ability to work past that stress response to antidote the stress of the world so my body could keep thriving and none of those paths were interested in helping me do that. They were just about controlling body processes, super feeding, hyper feeding, making the cells turn into this or turn into that.

That's one of the reasons why I was so tired, I had spent my life making things happen. And the truth is healing doesn't happen because you made it happen, it happens because you partnered with your cells, with your organs, with your systems.

That was the magic I learned... to let go of the need to force everything to fit the box as I designed it, and instead begin to learn the language of my body so that something beautiful could actually happen.

So if that's what you want and you really want off that hamster wheel, great, reach out.

This is not a diet. This is not a quick fix. This is not a lose 20 pounds in 10 days. This is healing. This is freedom, and this is release.

If you want to explore freedom, set up a call with us and let's see IF we can help.
