This morning as I sat and ate my warm bowel of oats I read over my "Power Thought Cards" - these are one of my favorite "tools" to use while I am eating a meal. They are beautiful note cards - with inspirational sayings by Louise Hay. Usually when I am eating my meals I like to distract myself by either reading, blogging or drawing. What kind of things do you like to do??
This was todays quote " Its only a thought and thoughts can be changed" I love this saying - it is so true - our disordered mind lets us think that what Ed wants is the right thing - by changing our thoughts we can overcome our fears!!!!

I recently bought "Zhena Gypsy Tea - in Coconut Chai Flavor
What did I think? Delicious - it has cardamon, ginger and cloves with a hint of tropical coconut flavor. Lightly sweetened with stevia it was heavenly - I highly recommend it!!!!!!
Well, Im off to therapy and then a jam packed day at work!!!!!! I hope you all have a wonderful stress and Ed free day and remember a thought can easily be changed!!!!!!
Oh by the way - if you haven't already checked out Maya and Eliza's video post - check it out!!!

Hi Aimee! So glad to "meet" you! Thanks for your lovely comments ;) They really made be smile! I already am loving your blog, I will definitely be a frequent reader!! I can totally relate to needing to distract at meals, and always have a good book or magazine on hand. You deserve recovery! I am a tea lover as well and woww that sounds so amazing! I recently found blueberry tea by Celestial Seasonings, never even crossed my mind that there would be a blueberry tea out there, but its soo delicious! My new go to tea! Hope you enjoy it and the rest of your day!

I have those power cards too! Great minds think alike, right? ;) I loove quotes. Seriously my collection has grown quite ridiculous and unwieldy. I sometimes look through them during meals as a distraction. I also complete the crosswords in People magazine, doodle with an inky pen, watch TV, etc. Basically anything that serves as a distraction and helps dial down my anxiety. Hope your appointment went well!
