Changing my life with fitness and healthy eating has had a profound impact on the rest of my life. At first, I went through a mental transformation. I learned to conquer my thoughts and use them to my advantage. I learned firsthand that our outer world is determined by our inner world, not vice versa.
Through fitness, nutrition, and choosing which thoughts I focused on, I was able to kick a lifetime of depression and anger. Anyone who has been in a dark depression knows how miraculous this can be. This led to forgiving all who had hurt me in my past, as well as taking responsibility for how I had hurt others. This forgiveness, this letting go, then led to a widening and deepening of my spiritual world. It led to an expansion of my consciousness.
I have learned how to hold a positive energy of love around myself most of the time. Through meditation, yoga, and spending time in nature, I have learned to observe my thoughts instead of being victim to them. I don't claim to be perfect in any way, however now I can recognize when my ego is at work and that recognition takes away the ego's power.
As a person that used to stuff every emotion deep down inside, I went through quite the purging process and now feel and process my emotions on a daily basis. I love this. Anger has it's place, but I used to use anger as my base of power. I quit that addiction and now recognize that my true power source comes from a place of love. I now know a deep sense of peace.
I feel as though I am at the beginning of my spiritual journey, my awakening if you will. I feel very much centered in the present, and also a great hope for what the future has in store. Life's limits have started to fall away as I begin to realize all that is possible. I will be writing blog posts and making videos as my journey continues and would love to hear from all of you as well as we build a community of love and support. xo
