Greetings and welcome to Week 9 Embrace Change.
This is an episode about change,
The only constant in life.
Embrace change.
You probably got up this morning and got dressed.
You may have showered,
Brushed your teeth,
Eaten breakfast,
Driven to work,
Read the newspaper,
And had a cup of coffee or tea.
You may have already been through at least six changes.
Every moment is a new change.
Every second is different from the last one.
Change is a natural part of the life cycle.
Learning to embrace change is a major step toward peace of mind.
Imagine seeing an old friend whom you loved dearly and giving him or her a hug.
Think of this image the next time you have to handle a major change in your life.
Picture yourself opening your arms and welcoming the opportunity to grow.
Change will show up at your door regardless of how you feel about it.
Learn to open the door and welcome your new friend,
Change,
With a warm embrace.
Practice.
Think of all the things that change in one hour.
If you're having difficulty accepting change,
Repeat the affirmation,
I am open and willing to accept change in my life.
Affirmation.
I trust the process of life and I easily flow with change.
End of excerpt.
I hope you enjoyed the Embrace Change excerpt from my book,
E-book,
Audio book,
Why Struggle,
Life is Too Short to Wear Tight Shoes.
I changed up the flow of this newsletter podcast for this episode to remind myself to mix things up.
Another change I made at the beginning of the year that is working really well for me is reading before bed.
Instead of having television be the last thing I do before bed,
I have been reading a book,
Something light and fluffy,
Or journaling.
I can feel a difference when I go to sleep.
Trying new things is change.
Doing something new opens you up for new possibilities and resources.
Can you think of a change that would benefit you?
Or what have you recently tried that has been helpful?
