One Week Without Did not Make Me Weak!
It has been seven whole days without having coffee AND I was in several situations where I could have chosen to have coffee. I was at a workshop on Saturday where lunch was provided and it would have been a natural to have coffee. Also, on the way to the event, I would normally had gotten a coffee. I didn't and I actually was okay.
This evening I went out for dessert with a friend and we normally both have coffee. I chose to have herbal tea AND it was delicious...I actually got to enjoy the new flavor without adding a bunch of cream and sugar!
So, what have I learned or am I learning from all of this?
It is important that I share with others what I am doing and get support for what I am doing. Ask for help. In this moment, I had some sadness come up and thought of my father. He had a program in his subconscious that said something like "Do it yourself. Don't ask for help. Don't let others know." He was an amazing man and he also was a man who kept a lot of his inner thoughts private. I know he wanted to reach out and he would...it just seemed like such a struggle for him...that is the sadness.
A workshop I went to this weekend was about our body's stories....the traumas/ wounds that we hold as memories in our bodies. I want to let go and bring to completion my contract of "doing it all alone." I don't need to prove anything to anyone (not even, you, Dad). It is actually a sign of strength to build a team of support.
So the lesson I learned from my Dad and in this past week is the importance of asking for help and support. (It is a reason I started this blog...to not be afraid of being visible and in so doing letting others know that I need their support as I go through life.)
