Losing Weight vs. Losing Keys
Lydia,
I actually paid a hypnotherapist to tell me the same thing, so at least you didn’t lose money (which I do hope to find!) while learning this phenomenon. I mostly use the word “weight reduction” now.
I also changed a few words to Rickie Byers Beckwith’s “I Release & I Let Go.”
It goes like this:
I release and I let go
Of this weight I(‘ve) been holding on to
And it’s already going as I sing.
No more trouble
No more strife
With my Faith I see the light
And I’m free in the spirit
Yes, I’m only here for God!
Most of the song has Rickie’s words. And she is an amazing Singer/Songwriter as well as a Choir Director.
Her husband, Reverend Michael Beckwith, runs the Agape International Spiritual Center http://agapelive.com, a place where I learned I COULD be Spiritual and not religious. I healed a lot in my time attending Agape. Now I continue healing, mostly on my own, but I do occasionally get guidance from others.
The one thing I learned from all my years in LA is that words are powerful so say the ones that will give you what you want.
I’m still working on the weight reduction, though I am getting stronger, gaining muscle and losing fat.
I just need to continue in that direction! ;-)
Peace,
Sherrie

Her husband made a video for her novel. He wrote the song too:

P.S. It took a lot of visualization and affirmations to get to where I finished and published my debut novel, but if you knew how far I've come, you would be pretty amazed! ;-)

The other day I was talking to someone about what’s been happening in my life and mentioned that I have been, among other things, losing some weight. She was quick to remind me that this isn’t a positive statement.
If you lose your keys, your first instinct is to go looking for them. So, in the same vein, if you lose weight you imply that you will find it again. So, I have decided that just as I have avoided weighing myself every week so I don’t set myself up for failure every week, I will not be searching for those lost pounds.
I started searching for another term that would fit without having another meaning.
If I were to drop the weight I could catch it again
Shedding pounds just makes way for new ones to “grow in”
Taking the weight off means there is room to put some…
