My disease has 3 parts, physical, spiritual,emotional, my recovery also has 3 parts physical, spiritual, emotional. When I don't work all 3 somethings going to give and I'm going to fall over.
My physical part of the program I have a food plan. It's not carved in stone either, it changes as I change. Since left on my own I eat the see food diet I have a sponsor that helps me with this and every part of my program. I also have a doctor that helps me and I have a loving HP that guides me through it all. I pray one day at a time that HP will help me with my food choices, then I tell HP what I've chosen and then I turn it over. If I get any correction on the choices from sponsor or doctor HP and I take a look and I follow what I know I need to do in my heart. None of this results in acting on my disease.
Exercise is dealt with in the same way. Today I'm starting a new exercise which has been prayed about talked about and now is going to be acted on by me. I'm going to a Yoga class. No one else can do this for me they can just guide me. This will be my first time. I have five free classes given to me for my birthday and I will use them and then re-evaluate and see if this is something I will continue.
This is how I do my physical program. I don't do it alone, alone is what got me here today. Have I always done it this way "NO" I did the let go and let God thing and finally decided there was action to be taken on my part, my HP has the ability to snap me thin but apparently that is not what is good for me as it hasn't happened yet.
Hope this is of help.
