Three things that have been different in my life recently. A week ago now I began the Insanity Challenge, an intense aerobic program that is CRAZY! I like to run, but I never sweat and push myself this much. It also came with a diet plan that’s been getting much more nutrition into my diet than I have heretofore had. My sleep hasn’t been regular yet, but I’m working on that. But the exercise program helps me to feel more ready to go to bed by the end of the day.
The third thing that has been very powerful has been a few changes in my Face it. Replace it. Connect. I started listing to an audio program called The Power of Visualization. In addition to breathing in gratitude and talking truth to my temptations I practiced a little visual spoken about on the CD. Dr. Lee Pulos. He had me imagine where I want to be. Picture it clearly, eliciting my senses of touch, smell, sight, sound & taste. Next you picture your current state, but don’t give it much energy, you can imagine it in black & white even. Then switch back & forth between the two visions. I found some great motivation doing this. Doing this allowed me to see the GREAT contrast between the two and I was very excited.
These three things have given me much more ability to keep myself from wallowing in false beliefs about myself.
