Add Soulfulness To Your Weight Loss Or Recovery Plan

JUST FOR TODAY: Try adding SOULFULNESS to your weight loss or recovery plan. Your intuition will improve – so you'll achieve your goals more quickly!

To lose weight, most people only focus on diet, and 95% of dieters regain weight. Some people take the extra step of adding a fitness plan, which enhances weight loss but doesn't ensure long-term success. Others include the psychology of weight loss, which helps to prevent emotional overeating and other types self-sabotage. This facilitates the process of making lasting lifestyle changes, and yields better success rates. But what if you went one step further – to the level of your soul. What is your soul, anyway? I consider our soul the "core essence of who we are." I also believe that the soul is the source of our intuition. It's that sixth-sense, that inner knowing of what's right in a specific situation. This intuition comes from a deeper place than our mind – we don't think about what's right, we know. Our intuition guides us with career decisions, relationship decisions, financial decisions – and can also guide us with our eating, exercise and weight. To develop your intuitive abilities, you need to "feed your soul." Just as our bodies need adequate nutrition, so do our souls. What is the best "soul food"? Anything that allows you to relax and "just be" – any time you consciously slow down, you nourish your soul, and you become more in touch with your inner wisdom. Your "soul food" can be spiritual or religious practices, but it doesn't have to be. It might be starting your day with meditation, reading a book that helps you feel at peace, or pausing for a few minutes to enjoy the sunset. Try adding SOULFULNESS to your daily routine today and watch what happens – to achieve a healthy weight, and a healthy life!
