Reconcile your old life with your new life.

How do you separate yourself from the person you were to the person you are now?
 


Often when we go through traumatic experiences, we’re fundamentally changed. We can no longer see the world the way we once did, for better or for worse. There’s a grieving period that comes with trying to figure out who you are now.

 

I’ve been through several experiences myself, which I'll discuss during my free 3 day challenge. These five things have helped me to reconcile with my old life vs my new life, whether that’s been from giving up my daughter for adoption, going through divorce, or becoming so sick I almost lost my life.

 

  1. Create a daily practice of gratitude.
  2. Recite daily positive affirmations.
  3. Get outside and walk noticing what is beautiful
  4. Enjoy a get dressed routine, choose colorful, happy clothing.
  5. Connect with a treasured friend who will let you vent

Keep going when things get tough.

Recently, I shared how I published my book, Zesty Changes, through many different challenges. 
I wanted to show you that your dreams are possible. You can do anything you want at any age, even when things get tough. 
But I also know how discouraging it is when things aren’t going the way you want. You might have dreams you want to make happen but keep getting set back. 
So, today I want to share with you 5 ways you can keep going when the going gets tough and stick to your power. 
  1. Be kind to yourself.
  2. Think outside the box to find a creative solution.
  3. Engage new help to get the job done.
  4. Believe in one small step that will get you closer to "there," and then take action.
  5. Surrender to the process, Rome wasn't built in a day!

Don't let negative feelings weigh you down.

Forgiveness isn’t an easy topic, especially if you’ve found yourself stuck in a cycle of anger and resentment. 
I had to learn how to forgive people many times in my life, including my daughter’s biological father and exes who hurt me. It’s led to a life full of freedom and zest, where I am no longer weighed down by those negative feelings. 
Here are 5 tips to help you forgive someone who has caused you pain.

1. When finding forgiveness for exes, remember you share experiences that shaped your lives. List some good things from the relationship, think of 'the good Karma break up'. 
2. If you are really angry go to a remote spot and growl, scream, throw sticks, do whatever it takes to let it out.
3. Keep yourself active, work out, do yoga, walk, get up, get dressed, and get out. 
Keep your self-care more important than your self-pity.
4. Don't keep taking the poison of victim hood. It isn't hurting him, it's killing you.
Find some way you can...
