Meeting Aesclepius

Hello Everyone,
 
During the Meeting Aesclepius exercise I was focuses during the first half.  I chose Jesus for my man/person to focus on, he seemed like a logical choice for me.   I live by a train track and the train decided to go by at the time I was listening. Most of my chatter in my brain was my brain singing christian music that I have heard on KLove.  I lost focus after the train though and my brain was going on to other topics like State Farm, etc.  Other than that I liked the exercise, she was easy to follow and listening to the water was nice and relaxing. 
 
Describe the saying: "One cannot lead another where one has not gone himself".  I believe this is saying we can not help another person and really understand them unless we have gone through it ourselves. 
 
Yes, I believe that the health and wellness professional has an obligation to your clients to be developing your health psychologically, physically, and spiritually. 
 
For me I want to be able to help people as nutritionist, but if I don't get my weight under control they won't take me seriously, thinking if I don't practice what I preach why should we listen to you. 
 
So far this month I have lost 10 lbs so I am off to a start.  I don't that by cutting back on sweets, coffee, and pop. Packing and moving help with the exercise.  Once it is nicer I plan on taking up walking.

    I know exactly what you mean. I have tipped both sides of the scale and I too am in transition. Living in Southern California weight is almost like an indictment of your character. As great as I feel I wonder how I will be perceived when the standard of fitness is so high. Keep up the good work.
