Good morning Char and to all the other APC positive peeps :)

Char, ENJOY YOUR DAY !! You've chosen to feel good today ! Good for you :) You'll have to fill us in when you get back.

Much love to all and I hope everyone else will CHOOSE to have a great day also !!!!

Good Morning! Success Story :D

First thing as I woke up this AM, I started mentally going through the alphabet and thinking up positive words for each letter, Amazing, Beautiful, Caring, Delicious, etc. I only had two negative thoughts try and intrude and they just moved on as soon as I ID'd them as neg thoughts.

Then, I came down and made breakfast. Still felt OK and without neg thoughts or stories. When I felt wobbly/groggy I told myself, "this is just normal morning SLOW stuff as I get moving for the day. Also, I might have started to body scan looking for trouble and stopped it.

Then, best of all I got dressed and went to Publix (grocery) to pick up a prescription. The drive there was fine, no fear. When I got out of the car and headed towards the pharmacy I felt the adrenaline start pumping. I said to myself, "OK, let's see what just happened. I was fine driving here. As I walked in adrenaline started pumping..." I immediately felt it stop and I calmed down. I went to take my BP which usually is high in public or at doctors office. I got 120/89! Usually, I am 150/100 at a doctor's office or in public. 110/70 at home.

Soooo, I might have bored you but as you can hear I am (wooHoo) very happy.

I drove to Publix (grocery) to pick up my meds

PS: I think what stopped the anxiety/adrenaline was that instead of fighting it I analyzed it. I guess when I said, "OK, let's look at what just happened." that was a true allowing and no fighting.

:D

RIGHT ONNNNNNNNNNN, Betsy ! You're getting it !!!!

It's when we try and FIGHT IT that it feeds from the negative reaction FROM US. By accepting it, we've taught it a lesson. You continued about your mission, and YOU DID IT !!!

You didn't bore me at all. I LOVE hearing all this success ! It can happen for everyone if they just "let it".

GOOD JOB BETSY !WOOT WOOT !

Hey everyone!

The weather is beautiful here for a change---Have a great day---Hugz,Kim

I had a great time at the Y!! I went to the siver sneakers workout and they had a little party after for all the January birthdays. They do this the last Tuesday of the month. I then was able to join the diabetes class. It started two weeks ago and I was able to join in on it. It runs for 10 weeks. I feel so good today! I'm really going to enjoy going there and working out. I'm going back tomorrow for the yoga class and to work out on the machines. I even have a work out buddy!!!

Hi Kellie and Happy Tuesday :) Kellie, use the positive "what if" thinking. Instead of thinking negative do "what if the snow is pretty and as long as I drive slow, I'll be fine like I always am"

Hey Kim and Happy Tuesday to you also ! Glad you've got nice weather. Cold here and snowing a bit, but nothing drastic. Again, at least we're in the positive temps instead of negs.

Char hehehehhe, isn't it GREAT ???? My GAWD woman, I can't believe how far you've come ! I'm so very happy for you :):) And the YOGA is wonderful, I really enjoy it. It helps you with your breathing,too. And a work out buddy ???? Hold smokes, you're on a roll !!! Keep up the good work, Char. I can see the benefits it's given you JUST in your writings alone :):):)
