Hello All, I am challenging fps by sharing with you this morning. When my fps are active, I shut down and don’t show up and don’t share about myself and instead ask others about themselves. Today I have churning and burning in my solar plexus and tightness in my throat and a type of tightness/wall in my forehead. My beloved partner of 6 years ended our relationship and I have been making the responsible choice of coming from a lp of my personality as we say our final fare well. I have experienced the gratitude and appreciation of all the beautiful moments we have shared and the learning and growth that I have experienced. I am focusing on all the ways that I love him and he has loved me and seeing this as an opportunity to practice creating authentic power. I feel that the Universe has given me this opportunity to practice in a way that is very challenging to me so that I may experience true learning in the Earth School. Love, Joan

Hi Cheryl, Self judgement is certainly one of my roots too. When I treated myself with love, then I was able to feel relief from my addiction. Love, Joan

Hi Jaye, It was meaningful to me to hear that you saw hope in my sharing. For so many years I have felt hopeless about recovery from my addiction. As I continue to turn towards love rather than make choices from fear, I feel more peace and contentment. I am grateful that you did not delete this post. I too, appreciate your spiritual partnership. With love, Joan

Hello Dear Spiritual Partners,
During the past 18 months or so, I have been putting much focus on my food addiction. I recognize that my addiction is one of my deepest frightened parts and that healing it will be a path to creating authentic power. I have been working so hard on making responsible choices. Recently, I realized that I have relaxed a little and miraculously (most of the time) I am free from the compulsion to over eat. As I process this, I see that my initial work came from fear….fear that I would be forever addicted. Lately, I have been approaching my addiction with love and as a result the compulsion is lifting. I am exploring other ways to bring joy to my life besides eating. I see this as treating myself with love instead of shame and disdain. I plan to buy a paddle board this week and get out on the ocean, which I love!

My frightened parts become very active when I am experiencing some deep pain and that is typically when I choose to eat to stuff those painful feelings. I still do that at times, but at least I am aware that I am responding to my feelings with fear instead of love. I can always make the conscious choice to treat myself with love. More and more as I continue this journey to authentic power, I am making the choice to respond with love,

Love, Joan

Hi Mohamed and Steve, I appreciate both your comments. I also have a deep commitment to my spiritual growth and that gives me a lot of hope too. This decision to the spiritual path has helped me to look at my personality and my soul. The call this morning was very powerful about acceptance and tolerance. I am experiencing more joy in my life. With love, Joan

Hello everyone! I am in Canada and our programming must be different. I just watched the Spiritual Partnership conversation with Oprah, Gary and Linda from 2012. (I have it on my PVR and have watched it many times!) Gary spoke to me today when he defined spirituality. Becoming more aware, more responsible, looking at everything as sacred...creating harmony, cooperation and sharing. I am looking forward to more of that in my own life.
