The Lighter Life

At this time of year, as we conclude all the parties and over indulgence many of us start thinking about losing weight, taking up an exercise regime and making all sorts of promises about how we will change in the forthcoming year.
For most of us, these promises will last somewhere between a few days and a few weeks, very few will continue their new choices until they are ingrained as new habits in their life. Why is that I wonder?
Personally I think it's about motivation.
As you start the goal setting process for the forthcoming year, I invite you to ask yourself, "Why?". What is the reason that you are setting this goal? You may be surprised by the answers.
When I use this type of exercise with my clients the most common answer is based around the word 'should'. E.g. "Why do you want to start dieting and losing weight?", "because I should want to be thinner and healthier".

When we take this deeper, we see that the 'should' comes from social norms, parents, school teachers, fashion magazines, media advertising and many other outside influences.

What if you turned within and asked that inner wisdom that you have, "what do I really want to achieve, be, do or have this year."  As you tap into the voice of your inspiration you will be amazed at what you are really motivated to achieve.  As you operate from this place of connection you become lighter in your spirit, unfettered by 'shoulds' you are set free on the wings of true inspiration.
Once you realise what you truly want to achieve for yourself you are much more likely to reach the goal or target, you are more likely to make the time to take the action steps, and you will feel a lightness in your heart as you do all the things you know to do because it will be carried on the wings of your inspiration.

Are you ready to get lighter from the inside?  Let go of the 'shoulds' and start living the unlimited possibilities of your inspiration. You will fly so much higher.

In love
