My dear anxiety

My dear anxiety,
Come to me
With scary face
And wrap me with bad thoughts.
Play me a tune that lacks of peace
As only you know best.

My dear anxiety
You’re always within me
Coming with surprises
Whilst wanting to control me
And wanting to destroy me.

My dear anxiety
I hear you
Laughing at me from afar,
How at every test
I fall into the trap of yours.

My dear anxiety
Come to me now,
For I am ready
And not afraid of you anymore
Nor running away from you again.
Stay as you like!
Though it will no longer be interesting for you
Because never again will I surrender to you.

My dear anxiety,
I'm ready for the battle of the brains,
Come,
Come to me!

A Free Bird

I’ve watched her for hours,
Every step she has taken.
She is so flexible
And she dances with confidence,
Without fear.

I want to dance
With her
As if floating in the air
With her.

I lift my hands
Up high
Whilst watching her
And the music grows.
I am a bird now,
A free bird.

My passion

Look closely
My passion is everywhere,
At every glance
In every smile
In each word
Even now,
Right now
There's something burning
Something wanting to discover
New capabilities
New worlds
New challenges!

My passion
Has lots of names
With different faces
But all the same voice

Eating Mindfully - Week 2

I’m eating when I’m hungry.

I’m hungry then I eat.

I don’t eat anymore with my mind. There are a few times but no more than three or four that I was eating with my mind. Something like a little biscuit or chocolate spread on bread. However, I do it with consciousness, and I know I do it not because I’m hungry but because my mind needs it.

I eat small pieces and littler than before. I’m chewing and I eat very slowly.

There are amazing moments when the man in my life finishes before me. It always makes me smile.

In a few days, I’m going to be in week number three in my daily eating mindfulness plan. I post this so I can hear myself. I post it because I know you hear me…

My goals for the next week:

1. To chew.
2. To eat slowly.
3. To eat when I’m hungry.
4. To stop feeding using my mind.
5. To eat healthy.
6. To keep on with sports.
7. To be happy.
8. To love myself.
9. To love myself more.
10. To post to you guys.

Eclipse

He revolves,

He shines

And then is dark

He is omnipresent.

He is part of you,

He is part of us.

He is the magic of the night.

Look up now!

You can see his face

Maybe smiling

Maybe singing the blues

And for a moment

It will appear as if in a movie reel.

Mindful Eating Diary - Day 6 & 7

It’s Friday today and I weighed myself. I lost almost 2 kilos and I am not even on a diet. I started to do simple things like chewing my food, eating slowly, being focussed and eating healthy food. My body loves it and I feel great.

I discovered that when I am under pressure or something is going bad with my day, I eat my food faster. However, this time I stopped and I began to think about it. I know that yesterday I ate my food faster than has been normal this week, but this time, I was aware that I did it. This is a big step for me.

I have a memory from childhood where I secretly slipped food away and ate when and where nobody was looking. It reminds me of a cat snatching food from the street and scared that someone will see her.

I don’t believe that I have shared my biggest fears that I’ve had since childhood, here in my blog, with the whole universe. But I know, that I have changed and that it’s normal and that it’s better to tell the truth and not to lie to myself.

A slow eater enjoys food much better than a fast eater. It is clear to me now.

It is a week into my new journey and it is going great. I am in focus, I love it and I know it is just the beginning.

By the way, I feel beautiful!

Mindful Eating Diary - Day 5

Day Five,

There is a big desire, desire to taste everything. I know it lasts just a few seconds in my mouth, but still, it is an amazing feeling. I don’t know how to explain it but maybe if you love this beautiful part of the universe that’s called “food”, then you can understand.

Food can make me happy, food can make me sing and really good food can make me dance. Through all my body, it’s a high feeling, like natural ecstasy and the taste is like music to my body.

For years, food also made me say. I suffered for years from self-blame and feelings of guilt from the food on my plate. I did not enjoy the food even though I was sure I did.

This journey makes me enjoy the food. I finally start to feel good about what I eat. I eat less and exactly on time and I even discovered that I can find enjoyment from some foods I could not eat before.

I start to feel healthy in my mind…
