GETTING OUT OF YOUR OWN WAY.....

Welcome to my world!!   I am a seeker. Now you might find that fascinating, but to tell you the truth my life has been challenging.There are times I feel like a five year old kid in a dress I want to take off.We read books,do therapy get rid of the old - bring in the new, do inner child work, become a vegan - change therapists, do reikki, cleanse, go to anger management classes, join new groups, change religions- etc, etc, Then you finally realize you are stuck with you - the good, the bad and the ugly.  So here you are -YOU stuck in your own body..What do you do???  You investigate every part of you - and you learn to change some things but the bottom line is you embrace who the hell you are in this lifetime.  Always seeking a new way, a new look, a new reaction, a new what??  People change when they are scared out their minds - they are either losing someone, something or themselves.  Great! in order for us to change we have to hit a cement wall? Change is certainly a personal perception - Have you ever noticed how people think they are changing & you silently say to yourself "I  don't see any consistent change."I am one of those progressive people who wants change all the time and yet sometimes I feel like I am on a treadmill going where??   Real change to me is not changing jobs, changing relationships, changing your residence - real change to me is how you feel inside.  Have you noticed your thoughts changing from negative thoughts to healthy empowering thoughts - have you noticed you do not react to things in an unhealthy way - an example would be if you normally get angry over things that really are not that big of a deal in the grand scheme of life and you learn to talk to yourself or calm yourself so you do not overreact - have you noticed a new, healthy adult voice in you that reasons with you when you know in your heart you are just about to do something stupid - like call a guy you really want but he has not called you - or you take that extra cookie when you know you do not really need it -  real change is when you can access that healthy wise voice within your own soul. I am writing this blog so I can reach people.  I am writing this blog to help those who feel they have no one to really talk to.  I am writing this blog because I have gone through so much in my own life and so much want to guide you to a healthy place in your own life  - no one is an expert - we all struggle in our own way.  I can promise you a couple of things.  I am not perfect, I am not always right, but will always come from a honest place in my perception of life ...Hopefully I will make you laugh, and make you cry, and make you feel  - so you can get out of the way of yourself...
