Beauties…When you’ve had enough of the breaking promises and endless cycles of starting over that keep blowing your goals and your heart’s desires…read this.
I was working with a client earlier who wants to change some habits around eating/weight and also alcohol. Common for the women I work with.
And if you’ve ever tried to lose weight, or eat in a more healthful way, or change any kind of addictive habit that’s been with you for awhile… it’s likely you’ve made some big promises to yourself.
And quickly broken them
Which does almost more harm to your heart and self-worth, than the actual behaviors you’re trying to change.
And one of the reasons people fail so often with their big promises, their annual resolutions, their Monday morning intentions…
Is because those big sweeping promises are too big.
i have often said if you fail it’s b/c you took too big a leap… and I stand by that.
It’s ok to set intentions as long as you know that change has to happen in the teensy tiny and in the consistent and regular.
What really matters is what you do at the moment of every choice. What to eat for lunch, whether ot order another drink, whether to press ‘buy’ online, whether to make another excuse for doing what you want (what you think you want in the moment, that is familiar and yet going to take you away from the goals you set).
It’s in that moment that you either move towards your goals or away. It’s about how you navigate that choice, and if you can remember that each one really *does* matter… one after the other after the other…
An ongoing series of choices that support your goal… both build trust between you + you… plus build momentum for your success… they add up quickly and before you know it you become somebody who sees changes.. and becomes somebody who now practices new and more self-loving behaviors..
It has to be this way… each choice, one at a time.. is pretty manageable.. hardest at the beginning, easier once you’ve done it a few times and shown yourself that you can and are willing to move through even while experiencing some level of discomfort.
Getting there… almost always requires support. Because we don’t tell ourselves the truth (we lie! we make excuses! we pretend it will be different tomorrow!)…
Having support for those moments and help you see where you are perpetuating a certain relationship with yourself and often depriving your SELF of what your heart desires… is invaluable… less painful… less expensive, and less demoralizing… and lets you create success pretty fast… worth it to change a pattern…
I have both individual and group options… Reach out when you’ve had enough of the breaking promises and endless cycles of starting over.. I”m here.. I know how to help, my clients have big success where it means most to them.
All love xo lisa
