I now give myself more time to decide things and really try to feel what my body is telling me. For me a yes feels like my heart is filled with joy and enthusiasm. So far, doing this has helped me to choose more wisely and I’ve experienced good results.
I have learned to make choosing words like love, peace and joy a part of my life. Once when my boyfriend and I had had an argument and the atmosphere was really bad, I decided to repeat such positive words silently to raise my energy level. The effect surprised me because shortly afterwards my boyfriend, who was nearby spoke to me in a kind and loving way. This was an amazing experience because I then realized that I was not only calming myself but influencing another person.
I’m so happy that this course has been helping me to change negative thinking patterns such as self-criticism and judgment into a more confident and loving attitude toward myself, others and life in general.
