Words of Wisdom

I just came across something I sent to a client a long time ago.  I hope these thoughts/statements are of use.
Mind

• I accept that my eating and weight concerns are creating emotional distress, discomfort, and suffering in my life.
• I choose to accept my body and weight as they are at this moment.
  Committing to accept myself is a choice only I can make.

Body

• I accept that my genetic inheritance strongly influences my body shape and weight.
• I accept how important it is for me to eat mindfully in order to live a healthy life.

Thoughts

• To accept my body and weight does not mean that I am judging them to be perfect
• Acceptance only comes from within myself. I don’t seek it from the outside.

Feelings

• I accept that my worth is not reflected by my weight and shape, but, rather, my worth is determined by who I am as a whole person.
• Acceptance includes rejecting the cultural and social messages I receive about weight.

  I hope your Sunday allows you some time for reflection and planning.
