Now get in the touch with your highest and best self, where your wisdom and intuition reside and ask your highest and best self, “Is this acceptable to you, is it acceptable to release this weight, to lighten up, to just let go?” And listen to the answer.

Now gather all of your answers and come up with one big answer, something that’s totally congruent, something that’s acceptable, something that rings throughout your entire body, your soul and your spirit. Is it acceptable to your entire body for you to release your weight, to let it go, to lighten up? And listen to your answer.

Imagine now all these different parts of you, especially the parts that have affirmed that this is the right thing for you to do. Imagine them all singing in a beautiful chorus, affirming to you-all of you-that this is acceptable, that this is beneficial to every part of you. Let that chorus sing in one voice and one note that this is what you want. If any part of you says it is not acceptable, let that part be muted for this moment and listen to your entire body singing loudly in one note that this is acceptable, that this is good for you to release your weight. Now just imagine, with all this congruence, with all this acceptability, with all these parts of your body in harmony and agreement, imagine your body, your lightened up body, your body that has released the weight that it needs to release to be this functional, comfortable person you choose to be.

Now all parts of you and all systems of you are ready to go and move toward this goal that you want to create and build, this wonderful compact, efficient and healthy body.
