"Attracting" a Healthy Body Weight

[Louisa Latela 226]

According to the Law of Attraction your life is a physical manifestation of your predominant thoughts and feelings. If you have spent many years battling with your weight and not liking your body, the primary focus of your thoughts and feelings has been that of discontent in terms of your weight and body. Every thought you think carries with it an energetic vibration and will attract experiences that carry with them like vibrations. If you are focused on needing to lose weight, not liking the weight you are now, and feel like it is a struggle you will attract to you more life experiences that will be an energetic match to that feeling thus showing up as excess weight, discontent with your current body state, and struggle. Focusing on what you don’t want is like having someone say to you “Don’t think of an elephant” (I bet you just pictured an elephant in your mind!!).

If you want a strong, slender, healthy body, you must keep your focus on the kind of body you want and the feeling of what it would be like to live in that body. It does take energy and effort to keep yourself focused on what you do want especially if your dominant focus has been on that of what you do not want. Answering the following questions will help you shift your thoughts in a positive direction.

Why do you want to resolve your weight issues? How will your life be different if you were at a healthy weight?

Use the following questions as a guideline:

Do you think your health would improve? If so how?

Would your energy level change? If so how?

Are there physical activities that you would participate in that you do not do today because of your weight?

Do you have any aches and pains you think would be resolved if you lost weight?

Would you walk differently?

Would you interact with people differently?

Would you talk differently?

Would your relationships change?

Would you eat differently?

If so how?

Are there people you would be more or less involved with if you lost weight?

Would losing weight affect your career? If so, how?

Would losing weight affect your family? If so, how?

Would you dress differently? If so how?

Would you have any new hobbies?

Would it affect your social life? If so how?

Do you think it would affect your mood?

How about your mental clarity?

Next week I’ll tell you how to use the answers to these questions to generate a powerful vision statement…

Blessings and Peace,

Louisa
