Truth

I have this client, who is working on trying to tell the truth. She is giving me permission to share this with our readers. A 36 year old woman trapped in a body in her opinion, does not feel comfortable with. She like many women who want to look their best, can easily get obsessed with how her own opinions of herself become racing thoughts. Yesterday, out of the blue, I get a call from her. This particular woman, is successful, intelligent, and has not addiction. I think she would let all of you know that her challenge is trying to keep up with other beautiful women in this world. She is a model turned actress trying to get commercials. The phone call started with, "Tod, do you ever pick up your phone"! She vented quickly, and soon began to fill this writer on her current negative energy. However, something was different this time. She was telling the truth on how she feels. She was actually doing her homework, (that I gave her- feeling charts, 1-10 etc..) breaking down her negative energy with how she felt. Truth was being told! There was no fantasy thinking.  I wanted to stop her right there, but decided to let it play out. The conversation ended with her reading a journal entry to this writer! She reflected on her desk with a pen!  I almost fell out of my chair, when I heard she was journaling, and reflecting. Now was the time for this writer to speak the truth. Remember, honesty for helper and client are needed in any healthy session. I let her know how proud of her I was and that she was able to construct a healthy platform that was based on her letting out the negative energy, reflecting on her feelings, and being able to identify her current behavior with the truth! Lying to yourself, get's old quick, been there, done it, does not promote healthy behavior in any capacity. Stay in your health, stay in the moment. Self-Balance-Higher Power-Fun
