I Am Enough

in Emotional & Mental Health, Featured, Health Tips, Home Page, Love Yourself, Love Yourself Naked, Renee's BLOG on 08/22/12

I am enough.

What happens in your gut when you say that out loud?

Are you defeated and the shame of “I’m not enough” comes up to the surface?

Does it make you think about what being enough means?

Or does it invigorate you pulling the air deep into your lungs as you smile at the possibilities of life?

I’ve discovered that my own personal journey included this awareness of women being martyr’s. In order to love we gave ourselves away or we neglected our body, soul and emotional self in order to please others or help them.

From an early age, I was a stand for women. I stood up for my friends even when I sacrificed myself to do it. I had dreams of being a woman entrepreneur because there wasn’t many and this felt like it would give me a purpose to make a name for women and probably selfishly myself.  I wanted to be a well know artist but not the starving kind… I also didn’t want a man to have to take care of me. I wanted to do it all myself.

I later learned that all of these ideas above were making be sick because they were contributing to the mountains growing around my heart. They were all based in fear.

As my body gradually broke down from the abuse that I had given it (daily coke’s, cigarettes, fast food, candy and potato chips. Yes, this was literally my diet) I began to wake up to a new way of eating, treating my body and seeing the world.

Food changed my life.

It also forced me to look at my emotional self and get to know Renee. The food changed my mood and allowed me look more deeply. I started life coaching in 2001, I was 21 years old at the time and I was just quitting smoking my pack a day of Marlboro Lights, finishing my undergrad degree and starting a business selling Cutco Knives.

Currently, as my team and I are lifting the curtain on the Love Yourself Naked™ Video Summit, I’m going to be sharing a story line of Love Yourself Naked and why I want you to be a part of this summit.

Remember, this summit is FREE of charge to you. I am extremely confident you’ll benefit when you watch, but I want to give you value first. Between now and September 10, follow along with this story and the bonuses you’ll get when you register for the summit.

My intention is to open you up to a new way of thinking about your health.

Dr. Christiane Northrop says this, “Good self care is the single most important aspect of our health, period.”

When i first heard about this “self care” stuff I had the food stuff down, with the exception of my former occasional sugar binges. I was thriving in my career, relationship, traveling the world, living life and eating amazing food. I was running marathons and very active. I was a pretty happy, but something was missing…

My self care/self love was lacking to say the least and it would waiver. Sometimes I would make time, sometimes I wouldn’t.

It caught up with me.

I started struggling with compassion. I remember buying books on it and still being so confused and scared by what was lacking in me that I didn’t feel that I could give it in the way that I wanted to others.

I learned that you can’t practice compassion for other people if we cannot treat ourselves kindly.

Why couldn’t I treat myself kindly?

First, the culture I grew up in allowed me to see women who didn’t treat themselves kindly. The media today is much worse. I wasn’t being authentic and making true connections in my life. I wasn’t letting people really in to see who I was.

Embracing Vulnerability.

My vulnerability is still a journey, but I’ve come a long way  after discovering the meaning of vulnerability in my life in the past couple of years. It is through my vulnerability being expressed that Love Yourself Naked™ was birthed and I have a whole new awareness now. I’m grateful for this.

My AHA moment.

I realized that when I was vulnerable it opened up the others around me.

I became more willing to do things when I had no guarantee of success or being loved in return. I had to let go of control. I had to trust.

I found out that my heart had been really closed down for years because of my distrust.

Joy, creativity, love, passion, belonging and faith began to emerge.

What I was doing in the past was numbing myself each time I felt vulnerable. I would use whatever was handy at the time… sometimes work, sometimes relationship drama, sometimes a donut, sometimes wine or a lot of dark chocolate or an entire bowl of popcorn.

Brene Brown said it best, “guilt, shame, fear – you can’t numb these hard feelings with a couple of beers and a banana nut muffin. You cannot numb negative emotions without numbing out things like joy, gratitude and happiness.”

Here is the raw truth.

When you avoid looking at your shit and you consciously avoid your self care and self love you are sacrificing your health in some major ways.

Self sacrifice leads to health destroying thoughts and negative beliefs that bring up even more anger, guilt, shame, fear and resentment.

Before long, you are dipping back into the bottle of wine or bag of doritos because you have learned from your culture that being VULNERABLE is something that you need to numb.

These emotions happen to be linked to high levels in stress hormones in your body. Note that stress hormones are also linked to heart disease, cancer, weight gain, etc.

The question I have for you is this…

What if you made a choice to feel this stuff and open it up like a present versus numbing it away?

I promise this summit will impact you greatly and to give you everything I’ve got in this launch.

This is my gift to you, please receive it with love.

I see health from a stripped down perspective now and let me tell you this…

I AM ENOUGH.

I am more open, happy and full of love than I have been in my life and I’m just getting started.

I AM ENOUGH.

In fact, I am more than enough and that makes me smile to say that.

I intend to point the arrow in the right direction so you can see it within you too.

Food + “stripping down” has helped heal my body. Now, I want to show you how. In this summit, 14 amazing women, that I have personally chosen to interview with share their secrets to tell you a little story of Love Yourself Naked™.

Through their vulnerability and stories, you will learn and be guided to your own journey.

Don’t wait for permission to get started because you will never give it to yourself.

Make a choice and click here to register for 12 days of 20 minute videos with world renowned women.

Vulnerably yours,

Renee

In order to love ourself, we must learn to LIKE ou In order to love ourself, we must learn to LIKE ourself first. We can choose to be accepting and our own best friend first. 
You don’t fall in love until you like a person first...
How are you being a friend to YOU?? 

Right now, the external chaos is going to reflect back to us how we are choosing to “like ourself” in our darkest moments and through these life experiences we are having and witnessing.

Loving ourself fully and deeply with trust and acceptance has never been more important.

In my experience, loving me is a practice every single day (sometimes every moment) and it happens when I choose to like me first.

I need to know i got a friend in me, that I will have my own back, so to speak... whether I am in bliss and joy or in pain or self sabotage. 

I realize more and more that when I’m not living my highest truth creatively, it’s more challenging to like myself. 

I believe at the end of the day, every person wants to feel that they contributed something of value and that they genuinely like themself.... ideally love themself!

Cheers to new beginnings. 

DM me a note if I can be of service on your holistic wellness and emotional mastery to Love You.

I see you! How are you doing right now? I’m need I see you! How are you doing right now? I’m needing more rest these days to show up in bigger ways! Hey... that rhymed! Fortunately, rest helps me write a lot and create more. It got me thinking... 
What if we did something new, that we’ve never done before, every single day?
It could be as simple as drinking more water or calling a friend or walking outside or making a video...?
One change every day will change your whole game. I will continue to keep you posted on my experience, it is working wonderfully over here so far 😉
Humanity is not cancelled out. I’m sure of one Humanity is not cancelled out.

I’m sure of one thing now and that is change. 
Uncertain change is to be expected. 
I am not in control. 
You are not either.

As I observe the vast and sometimes terrifying range of humanity on full display right now, I feel so tempted to try to grasp for some semblance of control.

I used to have this overwhelming fear of owning my power and also of other people misusing their power over me.

This fear resulted in me trying to remain in  control.

This was a deeply embedded root within me, that I was so unaware was planted at the time. 
I learned of it because I kept living through examples where I was giving my power away. 

I was losing myself in things, people or grandiose story lines (both true and false).

I was under an illusion of control. I was not at all at the steering wheel of my own life.

I wouldn’t express myself clearly.
I was looking for safety and security and “love” in all the wrong places.
I was attracting relationships from a fear of wanting to be liked, validated or accepted.

I did not know how to source my own core sense of safety and trust myself.
I did not have self authority or sovereignty from within.
I did not know how to love myself.

I was addicted to bullying and criticism and shaming of myself. It is where I went to any chance I got... I would storm in on myself with rage and anger.

This suppressed rage ultimately looked like addictive behavior for me... mostly with work, food, people, situations, substances or anything that helped give me a false illusion of momentary control.

This unhealthy place was the most vulnerable, painful place to be in for me because I had to take self responsibility.

I didn’t like what I saw going on “out there” and it was disruptive to my life and others lives and I had no real power to change much without facing myself.

I had to look in the mirror!
It is a choice we can look in at anytime.
What can I learn from this?

Humanity is holding up a mirror to us as individuals now.

^^^^^^^^^
Thank you for being in my world, I am so unbelievably grateful to be in yours.

Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanzaa, Happy New Year, Happy Life!

2020 sure has put things into perspective and directly impacted the very primal and core wounds within us that needed security and to feel safe.

No doubt it tested you in ways you never saw coming.

You were likely forced to face some of your deepest fears this year that eventually invited you to live in uncertainty.

For some, many wonderful experiences also occurred in unexpected ways.

Although, not always pleasant, 2020 was a very powerful spiritual teaching year.

I have often said to my clients over the years, "in my experience, this (emotional, mental, spiritual and physical) healing work is no joke, it's not always easy and light. It's deep shit at times and the hardest work you'll ever do while also being the most rewarding!".

We were forced into it and because of that, I have seen people rise up and open up in ways that are miraculous.

As we go into this new year, I invite you to sit with the miraculous human that is YOU.

On this day, I want to give you full on permission (although you don't even need it from me) to be human.

What this means is that you have permission to honor the human within you that has made mistakes.

You can also honor the human within you that has witnessed miracles or tiny shifts in perception that have created change in your life.

You can show up exactly as you are, flawed or in your most beautiful form.

You can be free.

As a culture that has been divorced from our bodies and biological needs for so long, we have been at war within ourselves.

Now, moving forward from this year, it has invited us to connect with our humanity in a different way while stepping into our highest self and intuition.

In order to trust ourself and that innate intuition we must master our physical connection to this body that we have been given.
