Codependency Support Group
Codependency is defined as someone who exhibits too much, and often inappropriate, caring for another person's struggles. A codependent person may try to change, or feel shame about their most private thoughts and feelings if they conflict with the other person's struggles. If you are on a journey towards self-love, this support group is for you. Join us and find others...

working my spirituality and getting in touch with my HP was awkward at first. but now i find such comfort in it. i am practicing loving myself when i tap into the universe.
i posted this as a comment on a friend's journal, but i thought it was worth sharing here as well.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
in "healing the child within" he discusses the difference between spirituality and organized religion. spirituality is something we can all tap into, regardless of what we believe about "heaven and hell". if we had grown up muslim, jewish, hindu, buddhist...we would have a much different understanding of god...that frees me to create my own god, my own HP, the god of MY understanding.
and truly, that god is love. love for me, love for you, love for humanity....
god is the father/mother we all deserve to have and to have had parent us. we now must learn to re-parent and nurture our inner child....and when we perceive ourselves the way god sees us, then we can let go and let faith drive our bus. because we have the confidence in ourselves that god intended before humans and life on this planet screwed that up.
i think that is why it is so important to get in touch with our inner child. that child is love. innocence. trust and faith.
one quote in the book particularly struck me last night:
"Life is a Process, Force or Flow that lives us. We do not live it. When we surrender to it, i.e., flow with its Process and take responsibility for our participation in it, we become co-creators. We can then become free of our suffering that comes with our attachment to resisting flowing with our Life."
or
"We have a choice. We can use our bodies, ego/minds, and our relationships on this earth to reinforce our separation and suffering. Or we can use them as vehicles for our Soul, Spirit or Higher Self to return Home (God's love) and to celebrate that return."
he says that conflict or drama or tension is useful to us, if we choose to see it that way--probably as a way Home, or back to God's love.
The following info he titled "Some Possible Paths to Serenity" and it came from "Alcoholism and Spirituality"
He says that spirituality is to be experienced--it's personal, it's useful. to appreciate it, use it and realize it we have to experience it. we cannot know it ultimately through or intellect or through reason. it is not knowable. it is only be-able.
this book is just fabulous! i think it is a big part of my recent breakthrough. i highly highly suggest it for healing our core issues of childhood....
blessings to all of us, perfectly imperfect humans!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
The spritual journey is most likely the only thing getting me through this. Well, that and my family. Guess I will have to take another trip to Barnes and Noble :)
