Relax Into Weight Loss and Lose Weight Naturally
Typical weight loss regimes involve pushing, forcing and shoving your way to success, coupled with denying yourself pleasure from food along with your natural instinct to slow down. As a culture, we tend to seek out low calorie diets, or the latest fad, vowing each time will be different, and punish ourselves at the gym as payback for our indulgences because for so many, actually enjoying food borders on a criminal act.
Where and how have we gotten so off course around the issue of weight loss? Since when should we torture ourselves in an effort to maintain our vanity and our health? Of course we all want to look our best, but are militaristic approaches really the answer we're all looking for?
I used to take these exact approaches myself, but my instinct cried out for years that something was amiss, and more so, that how I went about tackling the issue of excess weight was skewed, I just didn't know any better then.
Now all that's changed.
My new approach is simply put - more me. It's stress-free. It's submissive. It's natural and organic. It's about being in the divine feminine and allowing my body to course correct on its own, without my interference or misguided direction imposed upon me by mainstream media.
The path to losing weight naturally doesn't involve shakes, meal plans or chemicalized, pre-packaged food. It doesn't demand strenuous exercise that induces more stress on your body that outweighs any benefit, and it certainly doesn't require you to deny yourself the innate pleasure of food.
To lose weight naturally requires relaxation. In other words, letting go of the intense desire to lose weight altogether, and learning to slow down in all ways. Chewing. Trusting more. Developing healthy boundaries and learning to say no when appropriate.
One of the biggest keys to losing weight naturally is owning it and looking to decipher the inherent message in it. Stop trying to fight it and instead, claim it and own the potential energy it carries that once released, will invoke magnitudes of creativity and imagination on levels you never thought possible.
As women, it's not natural for us to employ masculine strategies to weight loss that involve weighing and measuring food, counting calories, and militant exercise, yet that's what we're taught to do so that's our natural go-to whenever we ride the weight loss roller coaster once again. What you've most likely missed along the way is that how you express your feminine polarity - or don't - strongly affects how you calorie burn. Dynamically, there's a certain soul place for men and women that has the matching polarity and when men are expressing their masculine there is more of a sense of flow and the same applies to women.
Intuitively, when you express who you are your body naturally starts to take shape, so it's clearly about so much more than just food. Until you let go of the notion that weight loss is strictly about what you're eating and how much you're exercising, you won't make lasting changes.
Slowing down and relaxing into weight loss is a new concept for most people (even though relaxation is core energy that's merely being suppressed), and can take time to take root, but it's simply a matter of reconnecting with the part of you that you've been ignoring for so long, stuffing down feelings with food that are dying to be expressed.
