AWESOME!
I'd do a happy dance in your honour, but the only reason I'm sitting at my computer right now is because I got a little exuberant with dancing/exercising in my living room and managed to roll my ankle. Nothing serious, just sore... or so I hope! I'm just happy I'd managed to get a bit of a sweat going first...
I've definitely felt that reluctance with the weight lifting too, but that's always a pre-feeling. Once I'm doing it, I find I'm okay. And once I'm done, I'm always pretty proud and very pleased with my efforts. There doesn't seem to be any logical justification for not liking weights, so I think those emotions belong to my pool of resistance... and I'm trying to make that pool a bit more shallow these days!
I see Steve's not much of a fan, but I'm experimenting with some EFT to see if that helps me cope with some of my emotions and sense of deserving. It's not a substitute for eating properly or working out, but I'm hoping it's a tool that will get me over those 'blah' or 'I don't wanna today' moments. Even if EFT is the equivalent of Dumbo's feather, I like that it makes me pause and think about my energy when I'm in a rough/weak emotional moment, and I tend to have quite a few of those. But even though I have rough and weak emotional moments, I choose to deeply love and completely accept myself anyway, as the saying goes!
Looking forward to your next update Erin!
