8/365 - Acceptance: unlocking the prison of self-judgment


"How can you begin to learn the lesson of acceptance?

By recognizing that what is, just is, and that the key to unlocking the prison of self-judgment lies in your own mind.  You can either continue to fight against your body's reality by complaining bitterly and immersing yourself in self-deprecation, or you can make the very subtle but powerful mental shift into acceptance.

Either way, the reality remains the same.

Acceptance or rejection of your body only carries weight in your mind; your perception has no bearing on how your body actually looks, so why not choose the ease of acceptance rather than the pain of rejection?  

The Choice is yours."  - Cherie Carter- Scott PH.D.  (If Life is a Game, These are the Rules)
