I would be more concerned with how I felt. I guess I never paid attention to my inner dialog. Any tips?

I have been doing dialoguing for the last 9 years. I write my feelings with my non-dominant hand. At first it looks like child's writing. The response is with my dominant hand and over time I've been able to replace the negative, shaming put-down messages with a loving, comforting response. I write from God's perspective as well in red. Give it a try and you may be pleasantly surprised what comes from it. Blessings from Bunny

The entire premise of this program is that our inner dialogue is so responsible for how we are feeling, inside and out. I also believe that removing the caffeine, sugar and alcohol (or other self medication ingredient) plus drinking plenty of water, eating lots of fruits and vegies, laying off the red meat, and moving the body in some way all help to add a feeling of goodness to our being. Some of it is very hard to do, but when you notice how much better you are feeling, you won't miss the bad habits that have buoyed you for so long. I hope you stick to the program and really try to recognize your negative thoughts and turn them into positive ones. Good luck, and be blessed!
