So true! I believe that carrying around guilt, sadness,
resentment, bitterness, jealous, grief, fear…and a plethora of other negative
emotions was at the root of my obesity and compulsive/emotional eating. The “heaviness”
of the emotional pain that we insist on hanging on to is so easily manifested
into the “heaviness” of our bodies. As
difficult as it is; we simply must “let it go.”
I know, it’s much easier said than done, but it is so necessary for our
emotional, spiritual, mental, and physical well-being. Once we forgive, forget,
and move on….we will know freedom that we never imagined, and it’s almost a
guarantee that our bodies will reflect that freedom and it will be much easier
to shed the “protective layer” of weight that we sometimes use to insulate our
heart and feelings. It’s a daily choice….wallow
in negativity and emotional “stuff” or let it go…..and strive to not pick it
back up again!
Let’s all decide today to “lighten up” our minds, spirits,
and hearts…..so that we can “lighten” up our bodies too! I hope everyone has a great day today!
