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...
from Faith in the Valley--Iyanla Vanzant:
It's not the problem, the people or the situation. It is your resistance to the problem, the people, or the situation which causes pain, anger, fear or frustration. Resistance is when an immovable force encounters an unrelenting energy. Something comes at you. You don't want to know it, see it, or hear about it. Maybe you want to be right. Could it be that you are trying to get your way, and someone or something is in the way? Perhaps you are afraid and don't want to admit it, and now something or someone is challenging you. What do you do? You could cooperate.
When resistance comes up in your body, you want to shut down or run away. It may feel like you just don't want to be bothered. Unfortunately, if you shut down, you will miss a valuable growth experience and an opportunity to get in touch with yourself. Cooperation means you do not try to block the energy, within you or in the environment. Listening to what is being said does not mean that you have to act. Allow yourself to feel it and decide what to do about it later. Make a decision. Take a risk. Whatever comes at you is coming to teach you or heal you. Whatever you do, don't push the experience away. If you do, it will show up later with more force and urgency.
Affirmation: I am open to this experience

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...
