Day 9 Cleanse

Higher self, I come to you with questions. For so long, I have not understood what keeps me down sometimes, what invokes fear and anxiety in me, and what prevents me from becoming the person I strive to be. I gave up drinking and I think that really helped me, but there is still something blocking me when I awake.
Higher self, help guide me and show me what I need to do in order to become a happier, more fulfilled person. I will be attentive to the answers and I will try to quiet my mind when I am distracted so that I can really listen. I know that if I really pay attention and "let go" of what I am holding on to that is keeping me down I gain a universal knowledge and understanding.
Higher self, I want to be your servant in this life and I accept full responsibility.

Outer goal: Being on time to my appointments, keeping my appointments, and maintaining a full time work schedule will help me to achieve this goal.

Inner goal: If I work and pay more attention to the exercises in the Feeling Good book, I can gain more access to this goal.

Day 8 Cleanse

Today I will throw out all the old clothes in my closet that I do not wear, including old night shirts, button up shirts, and the brown corduroys. I will throw out the old food in my refrigerator that is no longer needed.

Outer goal: I will liberate myself from inaction so that I can build my life back up.

Inner goal: To gain self confidence I will not eat past 10:00 and I will only eat "junk" food 1x- 2x per week.

Day 7 Cleanse

I fear that certain emotions are "bad." When I am feeling guilty I sometimes dwell on it. When I try to rid myself of emotions they tend to cling to me and make me upset and angry. When I accept these emotions as a natural way of getting over my obstacles they tend to flow in and out of me.

Outer goal: Today I will do all the work I scheduled myself to do. I will not be late to any of my appointments unless I have an emergency. I will work as much as I can handle so that I can begin to take control of my life by paying off debts and living more comfortably.

Inner goal: Today I will watch a movie or a clip again gaining confidence in yourself.

Day 6 Cleanse

When an emotion comes up that makes me uncomfortable I start to worry and fear that this emotion will take over my life and I won't be able to be happy because of it. I fear that I will not be able to reach my goals of success. These fears are compounded and I begin to worry about my future and it makes living in the present moment unbearable.

Outer goal: Today I will do my job and if an emotion comes up that I do not like as I am doing it, I will accept it and tell myself I love myself and that it will pass.

Inner goal: Today I will get all the work done that I needed to do and I will not let laziness or fear of worry take me over. I will accomplish my work with the mindset that I am doing this for the betterment of my life and that I am extremely competent at what I do.

Day 5 Cleanse

Hello Body. I want to tell you that I am sorry for how I have disrespected you in the past. You were and always will be beautiful and divine. You are a gift from God that shouldn't be taken advantage of or taken for granted. I am sorry that I overfed you junk food when my emotions were depressed. I am sorry that I went on alcohol binges instead of exercising to deal with my stress. I am sorry that I constantly abused marijuana and turned you into a lethargic lump. You have always been there for me, healthy and strong, and I am so very grateful for such a wonderful body.

Outer goal: For the next 16 days I will give up my thoughts/ beliefs that my body is less than attractive. I will look at my body as a work of art and something to be desired.

Inner goal: Today I will work out at the park to boost my confidence in my body.
