Breathe - Life's Inspirations with Sandra
January 2007
Recently, I stretched way outside of my normal comfort zone. Belly dancing! When I first watched Wendy dance, I thought, "I can't do that." Serious considerations of even attempting it were just not on my map of reality.
Why was belly dancing so far beyond my mental and emotional reach? I was positive that I would not, I repeat NOT be good at it. My natural inclination is to avoid doing anything that I'm not good at. So what if perfection is not possible. It just doesn't Look Good doing things badly.
Do you ever hear the words, "I can't do that" in your mind? Does Looking Good influence what you do, . . . and what you don't do?
However, I kept thinking about Wendy's belly dancing class. I decided to go for it. Then for two months, I found excuses for putting it off. "I'm too busy,""I'll miss several classes," and "I'll go next week."
When you are uncomfortable with doing something, do you distract yourself or otherwise delay beginning?
I have taken two classes. My body just doesn't DO those things. But guess what? It doesn't matter, because I don't expect myself to do it well. I'm actually enjoying the challenge of doing something that I'm terrible at. And belly dancing is FUN. Now I look forward to playing with costumes, which was also uncomfortable for me.
Do you have impossible expectations? Does you hold back, preventing yourself from experiencing growth, success, satisfaction, adventure, and fun? Holding back does decrease your failure rate, but you also never get the chance to improve.
Anything worth doing is worth doing badly." ~ G.K. Chesterton
Health Tip - Stretch!
Do you play it safe?
Where in your life does "I can't" get in the way?
Does concern about Looking Good keep you taking action?
Do you distract yourself to avoid discomfort?
Are you afraid to make mistakes?
Are your expectations impossibly high?
Consider stretching the boundaries of your comfort zone. Are you holding back in your business? Do you have things that you need to say to your family or friends? Have you secretly dreamed of climbing Mt Everest, sky diving, or writing a book?
Sometimes it's valuable to look at the emotions that come up associated with what you are avoiding. I frequently ask my Spiritual Alignment Consulting clients, "What is the worst thing that could happen?" The answers may be revealing. Heal your emotional stuck places and whole new levels of freedom may appear.

Featured Product - Vitashower
After belly dancing, I took a long relaxing bath. Before I discovered Vitashower, bathing was not relaxing. I feel like I'm being gassed every time I flush the toilet or wash the dishes.
Vitashower Shower Filters and Bath Tablets are fabulous. Vitamin C neutralizes chlorine, taking the smell away. Plus, it's good for your skin and hair. Put a chlorine indicating solution in our tap water and it goes beyond yellow to green. Yuck! Dip Vitabath water out of the tub, test it, and it stays crystal clear. It's amazing what a little tablet can do.
Go to my website for information about these products, their effectiveness, and the effects of chlorine exposure.
