Comments on: Stopping Relapses: Part 3 – What To Do or Not Do To Stay Recovered http://transcendbulimia.com/archives/184 An uplifting journey to recovery from bulimia - with tips and coaching for your own recovery. Wed, 02 Jul 2008 19:39:40 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Heather http://transcendbulimia.com/archives/184/comment-page-1#comment-46295 Heather Fri, 21 Sep 2007 05:43:08 +0000 http://transcendbulimia.com/?p=184#comment-46295 Djuro, Karen and Cher -- thank you for your comments. I know all of you understand the process of recovery, relapse and choosing to get up again. Can you see how much strength is required to do this? How much resilience? Imagine applying that to what we truly love to do? Imagine channeling that into belief in ourselves and our dreams? The first person that ever told me how resilient I was was my Ayurvedic MD. I told a story not unlike anyone reading my blog and when he said I was resilient, I realized that no matter what, I could choose again. During my process of recovery, I met healers who helped me see all the great qualities in myself -- and to trust these qualities as I moved forward with my life. It was as if I was waking up to parts of me that I had denied because I was too busy focused on the negative aspects of myself that I wanted to change. I was stuck in a holding pattern of wanting to be somewhere other than where I was. Imagine loving and accepting ourselves just as we are right NOW? That is my wish for you -- because you deserve it! With love, Heather Djuro, Karen and Cher — thank you for your comments. I know all of you understand the process of recovery, relapse and choosing to get up again.

I'm a great believer in picking yourself up no matter how you think you may have failed, a setback is not failure just part of the learning & the journey itself. Everything happens for a reason & I think there is a silver lining in all so called negative scenarios.
