Affirmations:
I want to feel happy and at peace with myself.
I choose to satisfy my real needs and wants.
I am grateful I give myself exactly what is right and best
for me.
I love myself for living with moderation in all things.
Too Much for You?
Have you every found yourself uncomfortable with not knowing
what is “right” for you?
Does it
seem like “When it rains, it pours.”?
Are you
caught wanting more but not knowing if it will be too much?
Moderation
is the ‘Goldilocks’ solution.
In all things consider moderation.
There is no
need to binge on anything.
Trying to
always get more is a sign we feel unsatisfied.
When what
we are receiving never seems enough, we probably are not receiving what is of
value.
What we value satisfies us.
What is
healthy will fulfill us in small doses.
When we
keep wanting more, it is always the “wrong” solution.
We need to
choose what is simply right and true and healthy for us.
The absence of self love shows up with addictions and
excessive cravings.
Excess
shopping, eating, gambling, drinking, TV, etc comes from being addicted.
What we
really need is deeper than all the habits we may choose.
What we
give to ourselves in excess is our desire to feed a deeper need.
Take time to ask, “What does this do for me?”
Give
yourself credit for wanting to understand feeling “It is not enough.”
When we
have too little, we want more.
When we
have too much, we want less.
Too much time on your phone talking and texting?
Too much time shopping and feeling guilty about the debt?
Too much alcohol, pills, smoking and other numbing agents?
Too much gossip, judgment and negative stories?
Anything can become too much.
When you
find yourself sick of over doing, stop and ask “What do I really need?”
You may
have learned to seek short term gratification.
You may
want to just stop the introspection before it hurts.
When you are obsessed with one problem, need or situation,
begin to write.
Write what
you want, without censoring your answers. “I want …….”
Make sure
you write and think, “I want……
Most people
never allow themselves to want what they really want.
How do you want to feel?
Who do you want to be?
What do you want to have?
What do you want to give?
Your real wants will lead you to where you have denied
yourself.
Your
underlying wants will tell you what you think is missing.
You secret
wants will show you where you need to go, do and have next.
Begin to
vision and believe, trust and plan what you want for yourself.
I totally appreciate you for listening to and honoring the
REAL YOU!
