To release weight permanently requires faith. Faith there is a bigger life waiting for you beyond food and weight.
~ Catherine L. Taylor
In my coaching practice and the groups that I run, something I witness over and over again is that when women stop trying to control their food and bodies and relax into the present moment, magic begins to happen. They actually begin to lose weight when they stop trying to force things to happen.
Successful weight loss requires flexibility, surrender to the process, acceptance, and above all faith and trust. Trying to force the process and outcome creates struggle and frustration. Acceptance and trust puts you in a place of allowing and receptivity.
Relaxing into your life, into this very moment, requires trust - trust that everything is happening as it should be. Life is unfolding according to a higher plan and at its own pace.
You become impatient when you think life should happen the way you want it to
happen, and according to your timetable. The Universe often works at a difference pace than you do, therefore, patience is required. You need to trust that when the timing is right and when you’re ready, you will receive what you want and need.
