This morning during the workout I was actually trying to remember what it felt like to be almost 90lbs heavier, so very weak and in pain every day. Why? Because after being fit and healthy for years, I never want to forget what I accomplished to get here. Funny thing is though- I couldn’t. While I can sort of remember hobbling to the bathroom in the mornings and that uncontrollable urge to be alone in the house so I could eat my feelings away (which of course didn’t work, they were still there!) I literally have no memory of what it was like to be so unhappy and in so much discomfort in my body. This is actually a delightful feature of neural plasticity called synaptic pruning- our brains erase the old neural connections when we practice being our new selves over and over again. That old me is literally gone. I’m so glad I can still appreciate the work it took to get here (mostly working with my mind and the body followed!) without ever having to feel that old story again! I’m grateful every day NOW. The past doesn’t matter anymore 💪🏼❤️ If you want to know how you can break free and become who you are truly meant to be, I’m here to serve you.
