Now that we have an idea of the thoughts, feelings, and perceptions regarding your excess weight, it is time to release it all. One great way to do this is through meditation. The following meditation is adapted from "Suite of Armor" by Linda Bennett:
Imagine yourself encased in a suite of armor, looking into a mirror. Notice how heavy it feels. Become aware of the metal surrounding your body. Notice how difficult it is to move and how much it holds you back. Realize that it once served a purpose but is now unnecessary. Recognize that you are ready to let go of this armor.
Now, imagine someone has come to help you- this could be a friend, family member, spirit guide. They are here to help you remove your armor, one piece at a time. ...
They first help you remove the armor around your knees...then around your calves, around your feet.. as they pull the armor from off of your legs, they begin to remove the negativity, the fear, the anger, the self-doubt...all of the limitations that have kept you from your your weight loss goals...they then remove the heavy metal from your thighs. Notice how light your legs feel...notice how less burdened you are by negative thoughts, feelings and self-doubt.
They now remove the armor from your stomach- removing all fear, anger, and all uncomfortable feelings you feel in the pit of your stomach...you begin to feel a sense of freedom...you begin to feel the desire to put your fears aside and move forward into your weight loss goals.
Now they remove the armor from around your back and with it all of the weight from the past has been lifted from you...you are free from the weight of past disappointments...letting go of painful and dark memories from the past...
They now remove the armor from around your arms.. feel the change...they are lifting away the fear, anger, limiting beliefs that have held you back in the past...now your arms can move freely and reach out for anything they want.
The armor is now removed from your chest....the heavy metal that restricted your heart for so long...all of the sadness, hurts in your heart are removed..... Now, feel your heart expand..allow it to fill and expand with light--allowing you to love and be loved completely and unconditionally...
As the armor is removed from the top of your head all of the negative thoughts that limited your past success is released.... Your thoughts become free from negativity and you are now open to thinking more positively.
Now the armor is removed from your eyes and face and with that, you can see clearly...you can see yourself and see that all of your previous limitations are gone- you have let them go because you don't need them anymore.
In the mirror you can see yourself- thin, happy, healthy, focused and successful in losing all of your excess weight...you feel encouraged and motivated by the freedom to be free and achieve everything you desire.
Practice this meditation over and over again, every night as you are falling asleep and/or every morning that you are waking up. This is when the subconscious mind is more active and the conscious mind is sleepy and out of the way. Being guided through a session is incredibly helpful with this.
