LOL Lisa. Im gonna talk to my hips today...seriosly. Maybe they will be gone when summer is here, and the bikiniseason starts. Looking forward to your "homecoming" and to see u in chat again. Enjoy your cruise.
Hug

good blog lisa. I must be one of your children as you are carrying my problems in your hips. I be a good girl I promise!!! lol. Have fun and I will see you soon.

Love Jodi xx

LMAO! Lisa! That is so funny, yet makes total sense. I have done meditations where I go to a body part and speak with it, so I know what that's like. I too, have gotten "hippy" lately, and I haven't changed diet or anything. I have always worked out. Anyway, I'm a single mom, a counselor to many friends and to my mom....and I definitely carry the worries and problems of others with me. I am going to have a little chat with my hips. Yes, I am!! haha! At any rate, you're a beautiful woman, and a beautiful soul. We ALL love you no matter who you're carrying on your hips! :)

Enjoy the rest of your cruise!! Take care!
Blessings~Keani
p.s. how's Seattle looking for the future book tours?? :)

*looks around my body*.. where should I start talking to... hmm.....

I prefer saying.. "determined".. rather than "stubborn." ;P

Your blog did make me giggle.. :)

Best of Luck on tomorrow's seminar!!

<3,
Vy

Boy did you open a whole new can of worms with that post!!

No wonder my hips are so much bigger now! Being an earth angel has it's pro's and cons! I have to confess the ice cream with hot fudge hasn't helped much either....ha ha!

All I'm asking from ya is to really slow down these next couple days so you don't burn yourself out when all the traveling and shows begin...Please??

Wish you were coming to my town, hopefully another time.

Love,

Cecelia xx

LOL

I LOVE IT

I dont think your a nutter AT ALL!!!!

I spoke to my hips. I spoke to my whole body. I still do :) but for the better.

AWESOME STEP!!
Good on you. Your such an inspiration you are!!

Im with Vy this made me giggle. Although im not laughing AT YOU.

I love how you are normal :)

LOVE YOU!

Brilliant post and it makes so much sense. I have gained oh so much weight since I started working in foster care and I always figured it was because I began to "emotionally eat" and while that may be true I think your "carrying of everyone elses worries and problems".

Brilliant and enlightening post

Enjoy part 2 of your seminar.

Janice B

LOL!

Lisa, That's great! You just made my day.

I hope they listen. I have some body parts that need to have a good talking too. I'm sure they are going to be just as stubborn as your hips!

~Jen

Please do not donate in my direction.

I have tried visualization. And self-hypnosis. I have a dual problem. If I am not opening mouth to insert both feet, I am opening mouth to insert 2 feet worth of food.

Presently, I am visualizing an ethereal chain saw melting away chunks of whatever I am carrying around. Hard to concentrate with the noise of the machine.

My problem did not start with self-indulgence, but with my last pregnancy. My body hit 30 & decided it was going to be retentive... and not just @n@l-retentive. I decided if I couldn't beat the hormones, I would join them. Bring on the comfort foods!

So the mind holds, this, the heart holds that, & the trunk stores the rest. Hmmmm The boot? You get the drift, but the pounds had better get the idea that THEY need to drift away to someone who really needs them.

I AM a nutter.... but I will have a go at talking to my rubenesque parts.. as long as I do not have to talk to them in a mirror. I do NOT go there!

Thank you for this new method for me to try. And, please put me DOWN. Do not carry me. Just get me a little car... "Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz? My friends all drive Porche's. I must make A-mends..."

So happy you are feeling Lighter & lighter! Continue to enjoy.... & knock them... well... dead 2moro!

Love, A

Love your post today, it has given me a good giggle too!

I will definitely give it a go though as I do agree that we carry the weight of burden....so to speak!

Enjoy your last days on the cruise, you will be back home again before you know it!

Sharon

Bless you x You do carry the weight of the world and I hope that giving yourself permission to step back from that will help you to donate all that unwanted energy love. I think you are probably absolutely right, Ian has lost weight since we came back from LA and I'm sure he was carrying some of his burden there and now he's released it it's shifting I think my tumour was the result of worrying about everyone too much and not in a caring way always but worrying about upsetting everyone and not doing what was best for me and my family cause I didn't want to upset or hurt anyone else along the way. One of the knock on effects of my illness was that I didn't have the energy or head space to care and it's one of the things I've tried to keep going. I now try to only really really worry about Laura and Ian (to a lesser degree cause he can look after himself) and while I still take other people's feelings into account I wouldn't do the wrong thing for us because someone else might not approve. Waffle waffle waffle!

I really hope you are enjoying your cruise love. How is your Dad coping? Bet he's loving it!

Take care angel,

Kate x

You have shared a very powerful insightful tool...you know I have this bum thing as well Lisa. It comes right around to the hips and tummy...I too will donate to the Universal Energy Source...my hips and thighs and bum....In a famine I would have plenty for everyone but at present it is a chore to drag behind. Excuse the pun. Any way power to your shift and donation....guess what I'm doing tonight..I'm going to talk to my bum....it better watch out I'm not taking any talking back....LOL..Hey Angela love you sister.

Linda X

oh boy ... made me giggle too .
But i also see another side to your blog today : I really should have a talk with my back, it's been killing me the last 3 weeks (and the 4 or 5 months before too, but not as bad as lately) to figure out what it is trying to tell me ...

hlove,
Ann

Hi Lisa,

I'm going to donate 30 lbs myself. There are so many people who need it.

At any rate, when I look at your shows and appearances page, I get dizzy. That's a crazy travel schedule. I hope you have plans for good self-care.

See you in Oak Brook!

Jenna

I totally understand this...I felt like I had to fix everyone ALL the time and that if anything went wrong I was somehow responsible for righting it. About three years ago I started trying to change this. I'm still a very responsible person and I still try to help out everyone that I meet. But, I now try very hard not to assume their problems and energies as my own. It wasn't really helping others anyway if I was the one running around fixing everything, they never learned how to fix things themselves! Anywho...over the course of those 3 years I've lost almost 70 pounds...sorry, I've donated 70 pounds of energy to those who need it more than my arse does!

Hi!!!
I loved this post!!! I deeply understand you, because my hips are truly bigger than yours!!! I'm ready to "donate" my energy too! LOL!!!
Beyond this, your a fabulous woman and when I look at you, I see your generous heart! you're a wonderful woman, always smiling! believe me you're fabulous just the way you are!!!
hugs & kisses from your portuguese/french friend

Oh!! I forgot to tell you: I bought your book yesterday!!!! I'm so excited!!! and I can't wait to get it (9 to 32 days...)
bye!

You are sooo right Lis'. We are all on our own journeys here and only we individually are responsible for the tour of duty we choose. Sometimes, it can really seem to suck, but I am trying to listen more carefully so that I don't step in pot holes.

I check in with Spirit, the Angels, elementals, and all the spirit brethren and it's been amazing! I try not to lean on the mortal brethren, as it's just as tough for them, as me, and as you've said, we can hold each others energy. All those etheric cords, etc...just better to not hang on to each other. This can be a fantastic trip if we let it be!

Peace!
Q

Let it be,
Let it be,
Let it be,
Let it be.

Oh, what a post, Lisa. So much, so much.."whatever you lose, you find again." Cutting etheric cords, Q. Yes.

Love Your Wisdom Nuggets!

Contine to radiate. That pure heart of yours can give, and not always carry.

Love,
Barbara

Still laughin' Lisa!
This couldn't have come at a better time!!! I need to sit down and really have a loooooonnnnnnnnnnngggggg chat with my hips and stomach! Just came from drs. yesterday, with many metabolic issues, was told I might be prediabetic and need to cut out the sugars and unhealthy carbs...so what did I do, came home and ate everything I shouldn't ...and then some! I guess my body was tellin' that dr. "So there...see what happens when you tell me not to do something!" It must be that spoiled brat in me...better yet I think my hips and stomach are the spoiled brats that have dwelled in me all these years!!! Boy am I going to have a talkin' to them! Thanks for bringing a strong message with humor! I too had a hysterectomy (at age 26, now 49) and I wonder too if it is to do with not only taking on stuff (for you other's problems, for me protecting myself too) but about the loss as well. I can't believe that somehow our bodies, as intricately as they are made...working in unison with each part...doesn't miss and long for what was taken away. Just a thought. (not sure where that came from??) But, thanks again, as par for the course, you have given me food for thought (no pun intended)ha, ha. Relax on the last leg of your cruise, hope it was a blast for you and your family. Take care
cindy

omg.... i was laughing so hard LOLOLOL... ok the first thing is as badly as i want you happy..i tend to find things that other people loose... so if you loose the hips, guess who will most likely end up with them?

It' ok... you loose it. i will deal.. after all what are friends for??? LOL

have a great last of the cruise... hope it's all smooth sailing!!!

{{{hugs}}}

OMG LISA......

I hear you girlfriend..... I was sitting here reading your post and the sun began to send the brightest sunshine into my window... and I thought to myself.... ha... she must have an answer for me.... Sure enough... you once again delivered me a very important message....My hips and I have been at each other as it seems that whenever I begin to lose weight and feel "skinny" again.... I find myself struggling with some issue that adds fat.... ugh... I think to myself... was I created to be fluffy or am I missing something.... then I realized.... why do I get so hung up on what I look like.... why does it matter so much to me..... maybe its because I to am carrying people on my back... maybe I need to learn to love my hips and all that they represent to me..... boy you should see this sunshine this morning.... I am sooooo happy that you are enjoying yourself on the cruise... by the way...how's your Daddy? Isn't it funny how even as adults we need their approval.... lol.... I really am looking forward to your book tour and I will be at your signing in Illinois.... Remember .... those hips don't lie.... LOL

Lots of love and sunshine....
Theresa

Well Dear Heart, once again you are spot on! Almost literally whilst you were blogging this entry I was in conversation with my psychic about my recent little old weight gain! And similar reasons for my gain, as for yours.

Thank you for the fabulous image! I am donating my fat to the universe as well!

Here's to seeing more slender versions of each other when we meet... whenever, however.....

Oh Lisa! You did make me laugh, but gave me something to think about as well. Isn't that always what you do so well? I'm going to give it a try..... hmmmm.. is the universe really big enough to take on my hips?
Peace and Hugs!!!!
