What did my life look like before Lifebook?...Well, energetically, I suppose it looked a bit like an upward spike; a huge growth spurt. I was in a pretty good space. I had just come off of a super high from beating HPV #18 (Cervical Cancer Virus). It took me just over 2.5 years and a lot of research, courage, determination, and self-discipline to refuse the hysterectomy and heal myself naturally. I developed emotional, physical and intellectual fortitude. I believe that my spiritual practice of meditation, contemplation, and gratitude was also instrumental to my success, but getting there meant I had to make some sacrifices, or at least that was what I believed at the time. I found it increasingly difficult to be around people with poor lifestyle habits. My inner circle drew inward. Another unfortunate side effect of the diagnosis was not allowing myself to consider the idea of having a partner. Who would want to be infected by a Killer Virus? My only hope would be to find someone like me. Ironic. Isn't that what we all want? Joking aside, when I finally did get the "all clear"; a negative result on my pap test for HPV, something must have clicked. I believe this was the turning point for me and the impetus to join Lifebook. Jumpcut to the present... I am partway through the course and one of the things I observed is how my recent personal growth has mirrored the first five categories in the course. Going through the Health and Fitness, Emotional, Intellectual, Character, and Spiritual categories gave me a deeper understanding of my strengths and encouraged me to continue developing them further. I also realized how important it is to be solid in these categories in order to thrive in other areas of Life. They are truly foundational. I have just completed the Love Relationship category. Big release. I went into this one a little afraid. Afraid to ask for what I truly wanted. Afraid to acknowledge that I deserved to be happy, sated, Hot Sex, Cuddles, Kisses, Wonder, Inspiration, Motivation, Encouragement, Validation, Awe, Delight, Shits and Giggles, all of it! I have had many failed relationships in my Life, so many I lost count. Again, no surprise; things did not go well between my parents. They were divorced before I turned 18. I recognize that I have residual fear and programming in this area, but the structure of Lifebook gets you really thinking about what you believe, who you are and who you want to become. Lifebook gets you thinking about HOW to move forward to become that better person. So for me, the hard work really starts here, with the outward expression of Love. Mastering this requires looking back to what I learned as a child, identifying what wasn't Love, and saying "no more" to those behaviors. I am only partway through the program, but I recognize that mastering each category is essential to having the Life I want and I'm discovering that the journey is it's own reward. I would recommend this course to anyone who wants to be the Best Version of Themselves Possible and anyone who wants to Live Life to the Fullest. Thank you Jon & Missy. I look forward to the journey ahead. Namaste.
