Poz Body-Talk #4

Self Affirmed
_________________________________________

Whenever you start to think or say something unkind about any part of your body, shout STOP! If you are in public, I suggest you only think STOP! at the top of your internal lungs! Or whisper STOP! STOP! STOP! to yourself.

For those more advanced, use the STOP! tactic every time you judge another woman’s body harshly.

Expect your conscious mind to argue with you but it is ‘not the boss of you,’ your body, mind and spirit combined are YOU.

Finally, borrow a tip from Kitty Carlisle who each night would look directly at herself in the mirror and say, “I forgive you.”

Post-it cue:

STOP!
I forgive

Re-focus ~ Re-frame ~ Re-gain Self


Put one Post-it on your computer screen, one on your bathroom mirror,
one on your frig and one anywhere else you may spend repeated time during the day.

The act of writing imprints the truth on your mind.
Every time you see your handwriting again, it further imprints your mind.

To increase the value of this process, smile when you see a Post-it.
Smiling signals your mind to increase endorphins and imprint what makes you smile.
