A couple of weeks into being 100% free from refined sugar and flour, I was out walking when I felt it—a familiar craving for my favorite sweetened beverage.
This one craving brought me to a superpower that we can all access. You just have to know it's available and how to use it.
As we enter into prime holiday season, I thought this was the perfect time to share so you're better equipped to make it through any temptation unscathed.
For the better part of a decade, I very rarely ate desserts or anything with refined sugar.
My one exception was this drink. It wasn’t just comforting and familiar, but it was incredibly useful for focusing my mind, being present, and getting work done.
In many ways, it was the most reliable thing in my life.
No wonder it was so hard for me to let go.
So on this day, when I felt the urge to return for “one more,” I really wanted to give in…
But that was my ego.
My higher self wanted freedom.
I felt the disconnect so I stopped myself, right in the middle of the sidewalk. Standing still, I put my hands on my heart and took a few big breaths.
**I felt into what I truly wanted…**grateful and excited for my soul’s deepest desires that I know are already unfolding, even if I don’t see them yet.
Did the craving pass?
No.
I totally squashed it!
And it was easy!!!
It could return, but it’ll be weaker, and I’m stronger, so there’s no worry.
All thanks to this new found superpower.
I’ve always had it actually...I just never used it consciously to overcome cravings.
But now that I see it in this context, I know it’s my greatest ally to overcome any challenge.
