I used to have a thousand ways that I made life harder for myself.  Back in the days of my torment and my temptation, I “kind of” knew what I was doing to myself, but mostly I decided to blame others for it.  

Blaming other people and even blaming circumstances was a great way to say it was out of my control.

Think about it:  I was actually willing to declare myself a victim – because, let’s face it, that’s what blame is all about – rather than take responsibility for my choices.  

Imagine this:  I am a fully licensed spiritual practitioner (Science of Mind Practitioner) and I’m still acting this way and blaming others!  

You can imagine how guilty and ashamed I would feel because of my own self-judgment.  I couldn’t seem to stop repeating the loop of torture.

I’d behave badly and then judge myself for it and it really kept me feeling stuck to the point of really feeling helpless and hopeless.  

Here’s what changed things for me: It was my decision to actually be ALL in for Love and Light to the best of my ability.

I didn’t expect to be able to stop judging completely all at once, because I didn’t want to give up at the first sign of failure.  

I realized I could be “all in” while simultaneously doing the best I could each day.  

I couldn’t be all in and blame others – I had to choose what was most important to me.

I began to be more loving and less judgmental every day and that was miraculous to me.

It was a great learning for me because I realized that if I could stop judging myself for being judgmental then I could actually be less judgmental to others as well as myself.  What a realization!  What a relief!

Eliminating blame and victimhood is what our Change Your Mind About Your Body Program is all about.  It’s about breaking the habit of believing we’re a body, and believing that we’re not good enough to be loved.  It’s about getting to the root cause of our suffering over our bodies.
