Good morning, everyone! Happy Wednesday!
Another week, another newsletter. February 2025 is nearing her end and we are all met with countless forks in the road. Which path are you going to travel? Which path deserves your time and attention as you reconcile who you are now compared to who you were 5 years ago? Who are you, reader?
Let me tell you…I see the changes I moved through and how my willingness to change resulted in a deeper understanding of who I am, my unconscious and conscious patterns, and just even more of a destroying to what I thought I was so I can become who I really am.
Like exercise! Oh lord. Ever since my abdominal injury last year and another health issue…I haven’t been going to the gym nor exercising. To be honest, I am a bit scared because I don’t want to hurt myself again. If you were to tell me XYZ years ago that I would not be going to the gym 5 to 7 days a week…I’d vomit in disgust! I was consumed by the “need to gym” and my whole life focused around that. I do believe that my injury last year was for me to wake up from this DAZE and realize that I don’t need to push myself so much and I was forced to EXAMINE my thought-emotion-action loops.
I absolutely recognize the benefits of a HEALTHY exercise routine…but I just have no desire to spend 1 hour each day at the gym. I learned much more about how weight management is mostly regarding what we CONSUME. So what if I can pink some fat on my stomach? I would be terrified at that idea, but now I really don’t care. As long as I’m healthy, I like how I look (especially now that I’m not a calorie and exercise nazi), and life is just much easier without the NOISE. I plan to resume exercising, but I do not foresee myself doing all the hours a week when I could just do 30 minutes a day and continue to just eat predominantly healthy while also enjoying some weekly treats!
How have you changed, reader?
There are many more ways that I’ve changed especially regarding the work that I do and self-perceptions, healthy boundaries, integrity, and all that jazz.
Will you find yourself walking down a new path before you as you release the thought-emotion-action loops that are no longer a part of your Mind/Body/Spirit Complex?
You may find yourself out of touch with those who matched your now outdated thought-emotion-action loops. You may find yourself a bit disgruntled at the discomfort of now having to adjust to your new energies and perceptions.
You will BALANCE. You will ADJUST. Remember that it is perfectly fine and expected to Change Your Mind - to enjoy different things - to no longer be attached to XYZ.
Who are you now, reader?
I have not much else to report other than that above piece which wanted to stream through me as I can now see why I got the breadcrumb to write my newsletter a day earlier than normal.
I can’t tell ya how much I’m enjoying writing on my blog again. And so! I’ll continue to attach my recent blog entries to the bottom of the newsletter.
May you find something to celebrate today, reader.
Have a lovely week!
Sincerely,
Jake
