Day 37 – Embracing the Moment
Life changed when I realised the difference between making conscious choice daily compared to being on remote control unconsciously.
What does this really mean?
In relation to my food habits, the majority of the time I would unconsciously choose food that made me feel good for a couple of minutes without any conscious thought about the consequence.
Life was presenting a challenge and for a couple of minutes the food gave me a relief in the beginning then what happened was I did not get the relief because the pattern became an unconscious habit.
Now I was eating the food and not even getting the couple of minute’s relief.
My mind would justify the pattern by saying “No one will tell me what to do” “You have a right to eat what you want”. Ok both these statement are no wrong but what they fail to mention was that I ultimately live with the consequence. Interesting the mind does not look at how the pattern is hurting the temple in which I reside.
“The I and the mind are 2 different entities
whose control and power changes when we awaken to a different reality, “Conscious Choice”
For me this became a whole different reality, it required me to take responsibility for how I responded to everything that appeared in my life. I may not have appeared totally responsible but at some level I knew I was as I am the creator ultimately of my reality. It would have been so easy to slip into blaming myself or making excuses but I already understood that all experience bring a gift of healing followed by growth or go straight to the growth gift.
This became an exciting reality, yes there would be challenges but as I have mentioned before “This too shall Pass!” http://jennyleather.com/life/day-7-this-too-shall-pass
What was required was to focus on the vision I was holding and tale one step that would take me towards that desire. Take One Step today and ultimately your vision is a done deal.Enjoy!
Love always

Day 36 – Persistence
When I have a passion inspired vision for what I am creating and understand my WHY for travelling this road, PERSISTENCE is a very valuable gift to give myself. The actual time frame that the journey takes does not matter in the end when I can look upon the outcome. If it took 2 extra weeks, months or years in the end the timeframe will not matter especially if I have documented and understood the lesson acquired along the journey.
It only becomes difficult when I have not understood the value withheld in the journey. I remember thinking if XYZ happens or if someone does ABC then everything would be OK, I would be OK!
“This meant my joy and happiness was in the hands of someone else,
I was giving then my power.”
This realisation caused me to say “NO MORE” if I was to BE happy it was a choice I get to make. I finally got the value of the journey; it was supporting me to become the person that could walk authentically within my vision for my life. A leader who lived a life that was inspirational to others to follow their hearts desire for their lives.
Looking back 5 or 10 years ago I had the vision but not the belief or understanding about myself internally to be able to walk this road. The numerous challenges over the last 10 years have developed my backbone to BE able to withstand anything life sends me.
For those of you that do not know my story these challenges included.
– A son had cancer
– Jenny’s only brother died on train station after massive heart attack, no warning.
– Invested large sum of money with a businessman referred by friends and lost the lot.
– Middle son had a work place accident amputating 4 fingers
– Their property development went into liquidation after the GFC.
– Financial challenges escalate.
– Lost Family home
– Huge credit card debt
There came a time when I dropped to my knees asking / yelling was more like it; to whomever was listening or to the universe, I cannot take this anymore and asked “what have I done wrong”? The answer came back intuitively
“there is never anything wrong”.
An incredible calmness followed with a knowing it was all part of my journey to be able to stand in any heat that life presented and understand WHO I AM beyond the challenge.
Persistence has been my friend. All I needed to do was let go of the feeling holding me back. http://jennyleather.com/life/day-28-power-of-emotions
Have a great day
Love always

Day 35 – What is “IS”
I have enjoyed reviewing different fascet of my life journey over the last 5 weeks of surrendering 12 kg to the universe with ease.
Interesting how I have spent my life wanting things to be different instead of focusing on “What Is” and being grateful. The game of our minds is NOT to be content, happy while in gratitude for what we are experiencing in the moment.
“If we truly understood this truth we would not be so easily controlled by the system at play”.
The media moguls have made sure we desire more or something different than what we have today. The materialistic reality needs us to be purchasing more things that ultimately get us into debt unconsciously becoming slaves to the game that has been created to have use controlled so that a few get outrageously financially wealthy.
This game expands in to all areas of our lives, the larger home, the better car, the different body along with the next fad of clothing that the industry describes as fashion this year.
It is interesting when I was caught up unconsciously in this game I never stopped to realised how blessed I really was, in truth I never desired for food, clothing or a roof over my head. I travelled the world stayed in the great accommodation and mixed with lovely friends.
“How come I could not recognise what I had at that time?”
I was unconscious to the hypnosis that I was experiencing that had me believing the stories that if I did or had XYZ that in some way I would be enough. The truth be known the mind would never be content while this game was playing in the unconscious level of my life.
Someone once mentioned you cannot change what you do not know that you do not know, very interesting insight!
So first we have to desire to wake up to the games that we are presently playing that we are unaware of at the moment.
Do you ever get the feeling that you really are not getting ahead? Do you ever have that feeling that there has to be more to life than you are experiencing at the moment?
I am guessing for most of us there is, we need to learn where in life we are giving our power away and how to take steps to “ Reclaim our power”. I have spent the last 10 years intensively studying this topic from the perspective of my life.
I enjoy sharing my insights, Love to hear whether you resonate with my story.
Have a great weekend
Love always

Over the last 5 weeks of sharing my journey of surrendering 12 kg to the universe with ease I have experienced the value of leaving the past behind because it is not where I am going. As I have shared I have dieted numerous times over the last 30 years yet I have never known the value of dealing with my emotions along the way to creating a new physical image.
It is interesting to note that in the past my mind got all it validating data from the past even though those experiences are gone. I now realise I am being asked to let go of creating from past reality and to design from envisioning what i desire NOW!
SLIM TRIM FEELING TERRIFIC!
This vision will require me to let go of feelings attached to the old stories with ease supported by grace. The hook into the past is attached by emotions to certain situations. These can be entertaining to investigate, when I learned how to disassociate from the blah blah chatter which was is filled with judgment, excuse and blame within these stories.
Yes there is a new way, dare to dream again with the intent coming from how can I add value to my life first then ultimately to others by sharing my passion and talents? What do I enjoy doing every day?
“My lesson has been to take responsibility for all that is occurring in my life while surrendering to the learning’s available.”
What if the things you love others are not ready for yet?
As I mentioned this week patience is a virtue. I have always been a bit ahead of the game and now realise everything I have learned was needed firstly by me to become the confident person I am today. To increase my self-belief and self- worth!
Anything beyond these gifts for me would be a bonus; I still have the dream of sharing the insights with others, this already happens on a daily basis, interesting the dream does not always occur in the format you originally thought; only time will tell.
I am open to what life presents for the next road to appear, which I will now be able to travel with ease and grace. Over the last 6 weeks I realise physically I have been preparing for this new road to appear. 7 kg surrendered to the universe, feeling slim, trim feeling terrific amazing journey.
The insights and life lesson experienced over the last 10 years have been incredibly valuable to my life, now in being the change I have experienced I will see what life has to offer.
Then it enters my mind that maybe I will endeavour on a totally different path that is just around the corner. Only time will tell!
Good to be open to possibilities beyond what you had envisioned, the universe works in mysterious ways.
Yesterday I was discussing consistently moving forward enables you to create your vision, http://jennyleather.com/life/day-33-consistently-moving-forward
Have a great day!

Day 33 – Consistently moving forward
I am just BEING in the now feeling calm yet shaky on the inside. It is like something is about to pop and I am not sure what it is at this moment. My journey to surrendering 12 kg is progressing with ease. I am realistic what took years to gradually attach itself to me may take a while to leave.
I am OK about taking consistent steps daily and yet realistically I would love it to happen faster. (What is IT? To be slim and not to have to worry, well this is not realistic because this is a change of a way of being and in truth will always have to be monitored due to the fact for me this addiction has become a habit)
Here is this duality dilemma that is part of our daily reality. This is when focusing on what you do have and letting go of the old stories that are anchored in your past will serve your new reality.
I need to go back to my vision of BEING slim trim feeling terrific while being grateful for all that shows in my life.
My reality today IS, I am 7 kg lighter than 2 months ago, I am moving with ease when we go for our walks and I also feel great. Calm and centred believing that what needs to occur in my life is in place.
What happens when other areas of my life seem to have stagnated? What is the internal chatter? Release the emotion attached!
Keep taking one step towards my ultimate vision. Today I am going to work on some new educational videos to support other people’s journey to “Reclaim Your Power”.
A common question that I get asked regularly:
What do I do when fear gets a hold of my mind?
On recognising its presence I firstly slow my breathing and take 4 deep slow breathes that allow the energy to shift. In the beginning I use to find by starting to journal the thoughts out of my mind onto paper helped. At least we are staring the process of releasing there hold within the body. Then I would break the thoughts down into categories so I could define what the issue really was that needed to be dealt with NOW.
“Personally I would do a couple of fear release techniques that enables me to then re-examine the situation”.
Is there one area that I can see an action step to support me to be able to move forward? Yes then I do it NOW!
What are You afraid of NOW?
If I you really are stuck it is time to ask for help. There are numerous clearing techniques that can be used to shift the energy and help you to see the opening to break through.
The issues that are showing did not occur overnight and will need some time and effort to release.
As I mentioned yesterday “Patience is a virtue” http://jennyleather.com/life/day-32-_-patience-is-an-asset
Enjoy the day
Love always

Patience has not always been my strength!
I should have remembered from past experiences when I decided to surrender 12 kg to the universe it would take time.
Even though for the last 5 years it seems to be a consistent message that I need to acquire patience. I always want to know NOW yet I seem to have to wait to find out whether something is going to work out or not.
When I have been patient dealing with all the emotions that show during the time of waiting the next step eventually shows with relative ease. I am assuming because I dealt with the frustration, anger and in general annoyance is the reason the next step appeared.
I have assumed if XYZ happened then I will finally BE happy and everything will turn out the way I dreamed. I now understand I have to choose to BE happy in the now whether things turn out the way I desire or not. Happiness is a choice especially in an amazing country like Australia where we have fresh air pure water and food along with a roof over our heads. We live in the absence of war and within reason are free to live a reasonable standard of living better than 95% of the world population.
We have a choice to focus on and be in appreciation for all that we have or we can continue to focus on what we do not want in our lives. Whichever one we choose to focus on will be the reality we will live. The choice is ours on a daily basis, I am choosing to focus on what I have and can do every day.
“What are you focusing on today? Do you look at the problems and Lack or do you see the abundance and opportunities?”
The choice is yours every day in every moment, choose to have a great day, make choices to ensure it becomes your reality. Start small grow strong! Read more http://jennyleather.com/life/day-31-everyday-is-a-new-day
Love Always
