Jill: Aaah, you were quoting me! I was confused.

OK. Glad you mom doesn’t do that! YOU hit your forehead? Huh. I wonder where we get these mannerisms from anyway. I sometimes do the side-of-head ‘DUH!’ but that’s only with an “audience” for a “dramatic effect.”

Oh no – MY mom doesn’t say that! Or hit her forehead. I just mean I hate it when I hear anyone say that. Actually, ****I**** hit my forehead…but anyway… Interesting on the skin/vitiligo, actually, all of that was interesting!

Mighty Morgan: Great addition! Yes, ACTion does reinforce thought and living out your beliefs (acting as if they were true) helps the rest of the universe to “tune in” to your beliefs and make them so. A “like attracts like” universal law.

Jill: Eek! Your mom does that, too?? My mom ALSO raps herself on her forehead. Whassup with that?

Regarding vitiligo – a skin condition. I’ve read about how different parts of the body are “metaphors’ for emotional problems so when you have skin problems, it might be that “Someone is getting under your skin” or something is getting under your skin. Skin ‘Protects our individuality” and the “new thought” or suggested affirmation is “I feel safe to be me.”

I have been having this problem with my foot and it does related to a “fear of moving forward.” Eee. But it seems to be getting better and I HAVE been moving forward so…who knows. Our bodies does tell us things!

I hear my mom say â€œIâ€™m so stupid!â€ and â€œWhat a dummyâ€ while knocking herself on her forehead. I tell her to not be so hard on herself and that thoughts become real and sheâ€™s NOT stupid but if she keeps telling herself that, sheâ€™ll make herself stupid. – ****I HATE THAT!!!!**** I’ve had a couple times when I’ve slipped into something like that, & have to remember not to.

I think it’s totally true about the stress. I have vitiligo and it was almost completely gone until I had my son. Then I was totally stressed for the next… nine years and it came back right away. One could argue I guess that it was the body changes from pregnancy & birth that caused it to come back so forcefully, but I don’t think that’s true because it never returned when I had my daughter, & I was under a LOT less stress when I had my daughter.

Same thing with eczema – I get it when I’m stressed & I don’t have it when I’m not.

I found your site via Mr. Speedycat….
I like this post in relation to affirming your worthiness to yourself.
Just a suggestion to put on top of it all (if I dare Act like you deserve as well…you can tell yourself something a million and one times…but action of the underlying beliefs speak VERY loud to the conscious and unconscious mind.
Everyday I affirm how wonderful I am..because I am, just as everyone else in this entire world is…but I also do something to reinforce this idea/belief…
Do something wonderful for yourself today…because YOU deserve it!
