Affirmations for losing ze saddle bags. Do they work?
"Affirmations for losing (rhymes with "mate") is a search term that brings hundreds of women to my site every single day.
Which, to me, is a bit disturbing.
Don't get me wrong... On one hand, I think it's GREAT that women are seeking to feel fitter and more fabulous by shedding excess flabby-do-da.
What disturbs me, however, is that they're searching for (rhymes with) "mate" loss alone.
And (rhymes with) "mate" loss in itself, is not a stand-alone issue.
A woman who thinks she has to lose ze saddle bags may not be doing it for the right reasons.
If she's doing it because she feels fat (in comparison to the models in magazines), or she needs to wear a size lollypop (to fit in with the friends), then no amount of affirmations is going to help in the long run.
This is because a healthy body goes hand-in-hand with a healthy attitude towards your sacred self.
Boosting your sense of self-worth and self-appreciation are key contributing factors to (rhymes with) "mate" loss or gain.
Boost your sense of self-worth and deservedness and your
attachment to baggage and low-esteem will naturally fall away (as will
your excess flabby-do-da).
Likewise, build your self-confidence, self-appreciation and
self-love, and you will become less obsessed about the numbers on your scales, and more
loving of your natural beauty.

Who said this?
"Hands down this is one if the best certification programs I have ever taken!"
Answer: It's part of a testimonial from the latest Goddess For Life coach certification graduate, Julie Randazzo.
She also says:
There is no skimming the topics in this course. Anita is extremely thorough and makes sure you really know your stuff.
For ridding excess baggage? Artemis is your gal.
I know that for a sacral-chakra-feminine-divine centric message, you might assume I'd pick a feminine role model, like Aphrodite, Baubo, or Ishtar...
But considering that lasting (rhymes with) "mate" loss is embedded in lasting "baggage loss", I was intuitively led to choose Artemis as the bearer of this month's inspiration.
Her message to modern goddesses is --
"If you are feeling threatened by a project or circumstance that seems to be leading nowhere, don't be afraid to nip it in the bud - Artemis offers you the strength to rid your life of excess baggage, to confront the forces that threaten you, to destroy the elements of destruction in your life. Once this is done, you can redirect your energy and celebrate new life."
"Baggage" in the case of (rhymes with) "mate" loss, could be the underlying emotional wounds that lead to comfort eating. Or the feelings of ugliness that rise from a low self-esteem. Or the abuse of food as a means of control (where everything else seems out of control).
Once the baggage has been unpacked and sorted, the body will find its own rhythm and "happy place" in accordance with its owner's attitude towards it. That is --
Love your body and it will love you back.
Abuse your body and it will not cooperate as a healthy, functional, sacred vehicle for your soul.
Call on Artemis as your role model as you tackle the "package" that makes you think you need to lose numbers on the scales.
Once you're in a space of self-love, self-acceptance and deservedness, you'll find you may not need affirmations for skinny-minniness at all!
Shine on beautiful one,
Love,
Anita
Got it? I'd love to hear your feedback...
