"I feel good!"
Sisters, let's dedicate this next year to feeling good. No more moaning and groaning and crying and whining about fat and aches and pains. It's time to take action. Our success in creating a healthy, fit lifestyle absolutely depends on a powerful belief in our ability to manifest. Don't let past failures undermine your belief in your own power. Some of us have been playing at the diet game for so long that it's easy to remember the failures while forgetting the sheer tenacity it has taken to keep on trying. Think about all the roadblocks you've experienced over the years: illness, pregnancy, stress on the job, stress in relationships, grief, the fact that you're a woman and your body has been designed to retain fat. Hey, how about plain and simple hunger? That you have not succeeded says nothing about your worth as a human being--the fact that you keep trying does. The ability to lose weight is within you, so you must never lose the faith. If "faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen," then you are already slim, fit, and healthy. Keep the faith!
Doubts have no place in my thinking and feeling. I believe in my power to manifest a healthy, fit body!
11 years later...
Sister Feelgood was published in 1996 by Crown Trade Paperbacks. In its heyday, it was named one of the top 10 health and fitness books (in 1996 or '97) by Cooking Light magazine. Before going out of print, it sold around 25,000 copies. In today's market, that may seem like a drop in the ocean, but to me it means that thousands of women found its positive daily messages a comfort and an inspiration. Rather than letting it disappear completely, I've decided to release the whole thing on this blog. It's still under copyright, so if you share with others, please acknowledge me as author. Let me know if you'd like to see it republished in book form. In the meantime, enjoy!
