‘The Secret’

I have started a treadmill workout where I use the timing of my steps to keep my focus on a mantra I say over and over in my head. Sometimes it's... I am on the road to thin, I am, I am... and I won't quit until I win.. I am I am I am I am. Over and over... Somethines it's Christina Agulara's "You are beautiful, in everything you do... words can't put you down" ... it can be anything but the thing I find most interesting is... I sometimes close my eyes to repeat these and I hold on to the handles which will read your heart rate and when I open my eyes... the reading is 180, sometimes 190, I have even had it reach 220 and more. As soon as I am focused on the numbers they decline rapidly. I don't understand this and I even asked my husband to look and we are both puzzled by this. Does this have anything to do with the energy that I am emitting when meditating like this, I have this happen every time I get on my treadmill now and start my mantra and not look at the digital readout of my pulse rate. Also, I so enjoy the walk now I walk for 1 hr twice a day, because... I am on the road to thin I am, I am.

Comment: This is the first time I understand this logics, I believe it is true, I am just getting into "The Secret" and I actually feels different inside. I guess what you explain is the reason for my weight but I am ready to change my thoughts about me and watch me change to the person I always want to be. thanks

I agree with you !!! What you maifest in your mind is what you get! So I think to myself i have got to lose some weight, then i think to myself Its not what i am eating because i don't eat that much ! I don't exercise my brain enough to have enough energy to do it so every time i eat and get no physical activity my first though ti soh my gosh i am going to gain some weight, i think you are making perfect sense and although mine is a little ran together i think you'll get what i am saying!

I'm not sure if you got my post or not so I'll try and repeat it. If I'm to understand you a person with a disease such as compulsive overeating or Alcoholism just has to think they don't have these 2 or either of these diseases and they don't have them????? They don't have to work a 12 step program any more they can just go out and be like every on else that doesn't have either of these 2 diseases the Acholic can drink like anyone else and the compulsively addicted food addict can have one pcs. of cake????? Is that what you are saying?????????????????????? LInda
