I’ve discovered my will power!\"Will<\/a><\/p>\n

I was listening to an online training course last week when one of the people in the audience related her story about her eating issues. She said that she wouldn’t ever inject herself with drugs so if she had the will power to do that then she had the will power to overcome her eating disorder – and she did.<\/p>\n

That really struck a chord with me and I though – well I wouldn’t do that either. So if I can say no to drugs then I can definitely say no to unhealthy foods. This has been a turning point in my journey.<\/p>\n

This last week, if I’ve thought about getting something to eat that is not healthy I’ve resisted because that story is stuck in my head.<\/p>\n

The other thing I have been doing was reading a book by Wayne Dyer called Wishes Fulfilled.<\/p>\n

This is the extract from Amazon on what the book is about:<\/p>\n

This book is dedicated to your mastery of the art of realizing all your desires. The greatest gift you have been given is the gift of your imagination. Everything that now exists was once imagined. And everything that will ever exist must first be imagined. Wishes Fulfilled is designed to take you on a voyage of discovery, wherein you can begin to tap into the amazing manifesting powers that you possess within you and create a life in which all that you imagine for yourself becomes a present fact. Dr. Wayne W. Dyer explores, for the first time, the region of your highest self; and definitively shows you how you can truly change your concept of yourself, embark upon a God-realized way of living, and fulfill the spiritual truth that with God all things are possible\u2014and \u201call things\u201d means that nothing is left out. By practicing the specific technique for retraining your subconscious mind, you are encouraged to not only place into your imagination what you would like to manifest for yourself, but you are given the specifics for realigning your life so you can live out your highest calling and stay connected to your Source of being. From the lofty perspective of your highest self, you will learn how to train your imagination in a new way. Your wishes\u2014all of them\u2014can indeed be fulfilled. By using your imagination and practicing the art of assuming the feeling of your wishes being fulfilled, and steadfastly refusing to allow any evidence of the outer world to distract you from your intentions, you will discover that you, by virtue of your spiritual awareness, possess the ability to become the person you were destined to be. This book will help you See\u2014with a capital S\u2014that you are Divine, and that you already possess an inner, invisible higher self that can and will guide you toward a mastery of the art of manifestation. You can attain this mastery through deliberate conscious control of your imagination!<\/em><\/p>\n

I have also been listening to Wayne Dyers Moses Code Meditation every morning.<\/p>\n

Explanation from Amazon:<\/p>\n

The two words I am are the name of God. As Dr. Wayne W. Dyer<\/b> explains, \u201cI discovered while reading James Twyman<\/b>\u2019s book The Moses Code that the sounds you will be hearing in this CD were the result of some intense research to reproduce the exact sounds associated with the name of God found in the Old Testament, translated from the original Hebrew as I am that I am. <\/em><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cIt turns out that specific numbers can be assigned to letters. And the tuning-fork sounds you’ll be meditating to are the exact sounds ascribed to the letters that comprise the Divine name of God. This has been called the most powerful meditation tool in the history of the world. I encourage you to become open to the idea that these sounds, when accompanied by your own I am mantra, can and will provide you with the ability to live a wishes fulfilled life.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Using the I Am _______ – fill in the blank, has also been very powerful. I am doing this every morning and when I go to bed at night.<\/p>\n

I will continue to do this every day and I’m excited to see where this takes me.<\/p>\n\"\" \n\n
