    Loving Your Lovable Self

    We are all 100% loveable. There is nothing we can do to be more worthy of love. We can’t earn it. And it can’t be taken away. It’s just there. If you don’t love yourself or even like yourself, it’s a reflection of your choice not to. It has nothing to do with your lovability. Having an amazing relationship with yourself boils down to how you choose to think about yourself. If you want to like yourself more, simply commit to thinking awesome thoughts about yourself.

    What is a Life Coach?

    What does a life coach do exactly? I’m getting this question a ton right now. A life coach is someone who can help you get perspective on your life and your mind. A life coach is NOT a substitute for a therapist who will treat mental disorders and diseases. A life coach takes healthy functioning people and helps them make their lives awesome. A life coach works with clients to understand and analyze what they are doing in their cognitive, emotional, and behavioral lives. Because a life coach has an outside view and a different perspective, they can spot what is working, as well as areas for change and improvement.…

    What If?

    What if happiness = thinness and not thinness = happiness? What if you stopped blaming your body for your unhappiness and decided to just be happy in spite of what your body looks like? What if you decided you loved your body enough to care for it the way it wants to be cared for, not the way the world and our culture teaches? What if you stopped tying your weight to your self-worth and just decide that you’re worthy just because you’re you? What if the way out of your weight struggle was not through changing your body, but through changing the way you think about your body? What…

    You Be You

    People Pleasers – A People Pleaser is one of the nicest and most helpful people you know. They never say “no.”  You can always count on them for a favor.  They spend a great deal of time doing things for others.  They get their work done, help others with their work, and they are always there for family members and friends. People Pleasers need validation from others in order to feel valuable. They believe other people’s opinion is more important than their own, especially when it comes to themselves. They conform themselves to the standards of others just so they’ll fit in. People pleasers put all their self-worth in people…

    Piper, Pipe Down!

    As a human being, you have this voice inside you that likes to talk to you -all- the -time. This voice tells you things like: You’re not good enough. Other People can do that better than you. Why are you so stupid? You don’t know what you’re talking about. What’s wrong with you? You’re too old, fat, ugly, etc This voice goes by:  Ego, the Natural Man, Inner Mean Girl, Inner Critic, or Inner Naysayer. And nothing she says is true. Inside you is also your spirit. This is the part of you that is total love. This part of you existed before you were born and will exist after…

    Love

    With today being Valentine’s Day, I thought I’d  share what I’ve learned about love, particularly about loving yourself.  Most  women have an easy time loving others. We’re very nurturing, kind, and caring to those around us. However when it comes to ourselves, we’re our own worst enemy. We are constantly beating ourselves up over every little thing. We scold and criticize ourselves endlessly reminding ourselves of every little imperfect thing about us. We deny any of the good in us. News Flash! It’s our job to love ourselves, and to like and approve of ourselves. I’m not talking about being selfish, or arrogant, or stuck-up. I’m talking about having a…
