New year new me

Because the old me wasn’t good enough, or so many of us think.

So what do we do every single year to shame ourselves into doing better? 

Christmas is the time for jolly and all that, bringing us closer to people we want to see and some we are happy to see at that time only. We eat we drink we laugh then we feel bad about ourselves, as the nights grow colder we don’t want o go out we want to stay in and reach for more handfuls of nuts or crisps or sweets or cake or biscuits to make ourselves feel better.

Now I am not trying to shame you about your easting, but rather paint a picture as to what is and how. we place ourselves in impossible positions based on how we shame ourselves.

We do such a good job of shaming ourselves we don’t need support but every now and then we get it, from that family member who calls us porky or squeezes our sides.

Negative beliefs have so much power over what you do and don't do. So many times I have tried to overcome a negative belief only to be held accountable for what I am attaching meaning to. 

To break free from this, we gotta understand the link, where is it coming from, what triggers it and what are we avoiding what is the pleasure we gain fro not dealing with his belief

Creating habits can be a very difficult task.  often we make the new habits way too complicated and it takes too much work to even conceptualize them.  S.H.R.E.D. stands for Sleep, Hydration, Relaxation, Exercise, and Diet. 

When we shred all the old stuff we can make room for the new stuff.

Ever made that promise to yourself at the start of every year?  No sugar no dairy no carbs, I must lose weight this year.  I must get my summer body. 
But only to fail come the following month of February, by March you don't even bother getting your gym kit out but April who is  gym is there guy down the road called Jim.

Why do you do this, because of the stories you ar telling yourself, the ideas about yourself that keep rushing through your mind, and the self-loathing that you embark on yourself on a daily basis?  

it's really quite simple, just stop it, stop being so mean to yourself.  Evoke a different attitude and a bit more love.

In this podcast, I go into the ins and outs of why we fail so many times.

Define the types of relationships we find ourselves in by categorizing the terms of what the relationship is actually doing. 
I have termed a relationship as a journey of combined partnership
Sitauionship as an interaction based on convenience
Dictatorship is a controlled manner in which an interaction is directed
Rockingship is a volatile experience of interaction.

Which one are you in? ]This does not just apply to intimate relationships but ones that we have with those around us. 
Identify how you enter into them and how you interpreted what is going on in terms of conflict.

Your brain is like a computer, your mind is the operating system, and your body functions and actions in the order of the brain which is structured by the mind.

Trust in yourself supports your belief in yourself and totally enables you to simply be yourself.  It is common that many of us simply don’t trust ourselves, we fear our emotions our thoughts and we stuff it down.  Often this results in feeling trapped stuck and unable to express ourselves.  Now firstly there is no such feeling as being trapped but the feeling of hurt, anger, depression contribute to thoughts of not being able to speak and feel free because of how it may be perceived by others and that what we are feeling is wrong and therefore we must not express it.

Our inner saboteur seeks to tell us how we are not able to achieve so don’t try. 

Those of us who experienced bullying in one way or another take on the belief that we will be bullied and nothing can stop that unless we follow a set of rules and assumptions that we created in order to keep ourselves safe from the world. 

For example, your inner saboteur may state “nobody likes me” this becomes engrained and therefore evidence when placed in social situations we may shut down not respond find it difficult to interact therefore appearing standoffish or distant which may lead to others not engaging and this reality of people not engaging or having no interaction will confirm the belief that nobody likes me and this adds to more evidence.  However, this is the fear the false evidence appearing real nonconclusive fact that becomes fact based on how people respond to us when we are in social situations.

Affirmations intentions and coping statements 

Mindset controls, the ability to set your mind in motion to deliver the emotions and thoughts that support you to move forward. 

Intentions are so powerful but can sometimes go askew when we started creating unattainable intentions that require us to reach for impossible highs that bring us to our defeat when we cannot achieve the

There is a better way to support your abilities and manage your direction by the use of intentions and affirmations and coping statements

It is common to see on social media affirmations detailing great heights and aspirations that often don’t allow us to achieve according to what is available to us and what we are capable of.  It is counterproductive to set an achievable goal that is clearly unattainable and encompasses too much magical thinking.
