One thing I hear frequently, both with prospective clients in initial consults, and existing clients is the tendency to go back and do the same things over and over again. Usually something that worked.. ONCE.. and never again. And yet all subsequent efforts to try to get that approach to do its magic again.. ain’t workin’.
I have a joke that I make about one of the big commercial weight loss programs, one of the programs that many of my clients have returned to (countless) times, one of the ones that spends God knows what on really well done advertising.. that it will work..ONCE. But all of those times that you go back, rejoin, pay up.. you’re chasing the past. Novelty wears off. And diets are still.. diets. And in case anyone still hasn’t heard, they don’t work.. not really, not for the long haul. Maybe for a few people who didn’t have a longstanding struggle with eating, weight, body image. But for the rest of us.. well, you already know this.. And yet hope is a powerful thing, especially when you don’t know where else to turn.
I’m not here to bash any programs, whatever works for somebody is a blessing, but if it worked for you you’d not be here, or you’d have clicked off by now, so..Hopefully this will help.
My plea to you is don’t get stuck trying to do the thing that worked the last time..or three years ago. You’ve changed. Trying to go backwards is counter-intuitive in any parts of our loves, it rarely works. This is true here as well.
Figuring out what works is a very intuitive process and part of what gets in the way is that you’ve lost some of your connection to your guidance.. you don’t trust yourself so much around all of this anymore. You only see the struggles and so you make choices sometimes from fear..or from impatience, or from a place of hating your body. And when you try to take action from any of these places, it’s not happening, and it’s painful. It’s not fun, it reinforces all of your most painful beliefs..
How do you find your way clear?
Your intuitive body knows. Your intuitive self knows. Your heart knows. You get messages all the time around what would help, what you need more of and less of.. But you don’t trust it. You push the thoughts away. You say “I’ll do that when things calm down/after the weekend/when I can deal with making those changes” or some variation..
Or maybe you just need support. Truly this is a place where everything that stops you from having what you want.. the relationship with your body, your self, and others.. gets clear and resolves with some hand-holding and some powerful techniques. And with somebody giving you permission to break old patterns that you’ve used to feel safe and secure since you were small. Breaking those is also a big deal..It’s hard to do on your own.
If you keep trying the same thing over and over.. and you’re not getting anywhere, it’s not your fault.
It would seemingly make sense to try what’s worked again (and again). But here’s the thing.. if you force yourself back into a certain process, a certain protocol.. even if you got results at some point.. you will actually block the energy flow of new “information”, new pieces that want to come to you, new support systems and ways of resolving things.. it all gets gummed up. The truth is, relief wants to find you. Wellbeing wants to come to you. New solutions and ways of living, new relationships, new perspectives and practices, are all waiting for you to let them in.. gently, lovingly.. not from that place of fear but from your opening your heart and mind and letting them join together to create something new for you.

YES YES YES.
it is all about the intuitive and the looking ahead not rereading past life-chapters.

Hi MIZ Carla.. raising my tea in solidarity.. we both know that what may have worked in the past is no longer a match now.. time to really reassess what’s needed now and to attune in ways that are intuitive and compassionate, get whatever support is needed so people can move into a new spaciousness of relief and freedom…Love to you and thanks for the comment..
