Breaking cycles, color therapy, current obsessions, & life realizations

I was always drawn to mood rings…

Today’s Message & Ponderings: Breaking cycles, color therapy, attracting health/abundance/love by the way you dress (present yourself), current obsessions, what I’m most proud of & life realizations

🗣️On breaking a cycles👉channeled message…

Themes for October: clearing out the cobwebs & RE LAUNCH!

A “LFG”. A wake up to what has been dormant inside of you. A reboot, a transformation, an innovation. A time to go for what is right in front of you. It’s not out of reach anymore, It’s here. This eclipse portal is going to provide you with so much insight, wisdom & understanding (even if you feel like you don’t have the whole direction. Join the club. I feel you.)

What areas have you not been developing or harnessing at full potential?

What weakness do you need to work on?

Take fitness for example. Are you not working out intentionally at the gym? Are you there but not fully committed & doing what you need to be doing with your workouts?

Are you wanting to make changes in your diet, but not fully committed to that? Are you “shoulding” all over yourself?

Don’t be angry if you’re not getting the results you want because you’re not putting in the work or resting when you should be resting.

Are you struggling in your relationships but not taking the time to efficiently communicate with your partner or friends or family?

It’s ok. It takes time to develop & bloom. The valleys allow you to feel where you don’t wanna be to give you the energy to ascend up the mountain to a better destination, your “peak.” 🏔️🌋🌄

There are no finish lines only the journey & the experiences along the way.

The eclipses in October will give you the energy to uncover what needs to change.

Love yourself along the way. Self observation/critiquing doesn’t have to be mean or hard or harsh. It just is.

In the current world today we’re so disconnected from our bodies & our minds. We let distractions of the outer world muddy the waters.

Spend time in nature, spend time alone, spend time in quiet, disconnect from social media. Unfollow accounts. Read a book. Connect with strangers, actually talk to people & get your nose out of your phone.

Something my mom told me a long time ago, stop, living your life through your phone. And that changed everything for me.

You’re back, but you’re different.

You’re always a different version of yourself. So it’s OK if you repeat cycles, just observe the energy around the cycles & why they’re happening.

Maybe you’re meant to go through those cycles again as a different version of yourself. It’s time to step out of your chrysalis.

This is the time around the holidays that people start putting themselves & health (as well as finances) second.

They start feeding the fiend instead of the friend, especially when it comes to overindulgence with the food & spending.

Thinking of food with this perspective helped me heal my bulimia & binge eating, addiction to exercise, & orthorexia.

You want to feed the friend not feed the fiend. Your body is a machine. It loves you. It keeps you alive. Food is your friend that loves you & keeps you alive. Keep the nourishing things close to you & get rid of the rest.

Feeding the friend = self loving exercise, nourishing food, portion control & mindful eating, fueling your body & eating for FUEL, positive self talk & inner chatter, surrounding yourself with a positive growth invoking environment, sleep, self care, nature, deeper community connections, personal development, avoiding trigger foods/people/places/habits, saying NO when you don’t want/need something without feeling you have to explain, resting.

👆Get the idea? 🫶🥰

🌈COLOR THERAPY

Follow @walaa.colorways & her work

Color therapy is a huge tool in my life to increase my frequency, give me energy, more happiness, attract more abundance, more love, better health, and enable myself to be the person that I want to be. I don’t consider myself materialistic, but an aficionado of creative expression. My wardrobe is a HUGE part of who I am, how I feel, & express myself. I dress accordingly. It is true what they say, how you present yourself not only dictates the way you present yourself, how you feel about yourself, AND the way that others treat you as well.

Personal ponderings

Fuchsia, Gold, & magenta are my favorite colors the majority of the time. (Fyi: Fuchsia is usually a more pinkish-purplish color, whereas magenta is more reddish. Nerd alert 🤓🚨🙋‍♀️)

I find I am typically drawn to bold, bright colors & neutrals.

I don’t typically like dark colors or black. I used to wear a lot of black when I was younger. I’m aware now this was because I wanted to hide, I didn’t feel good about myself, & I thought I looked skinnier in black, which came from a scarcity self loathing mindset.

I am currently drawn to:

Anything sparkly ( 😂 ALWAYS)✨💖🪩
pinks 💓 & purples 💜
orange 🧡
golds 💛(Boiler up) 🚂
Colts blue 💙😉🐴🏈

+ Decadent neutrals like:

camel 🐫
white 🤍
cream🍦
rich browns🤎

Patterns/Styles/Themes:

Western/rustic/ranchy (again, always 😆 🌵🏜️🐮🤠👢Yellowstone af)
Regal (think queen, victorian era)
Lacey, pearly (think feminine, denim & diamonds)

I find I get the most compliments when I dress in: Sparkles, Blue, Red, & Pinks

Our aura colors change based upon how we feel. I’ve always been in tune to this about myself. Even with other people, I can feel their vibrations & energy. I wear m headphones a lot when I go to the store & when I’m at the gym because I’m so sensitive & it helps me simply focus on myself more.

It’s “weird” but I can sense what’s going on in someone’s life, their emotional state, even see & hear their thoughts sometimes. I thought I was making the shit up when I was younger but now I realize this is one of my biggest gifts (and also a bit of a curse.)

I have to wear my headphones OFTEN & make sure I stay consciously present in my own body & mind & spend a LOT of time alone (which people interpret as me being antisocial, stuck up, etc. which isn’t the case at all.) I do it so that I can love others & serve others at my fullest. I have to serve myself first because of this.

I have to ground often (time in nature & solitude) I have practices in place to energetically & physically cleanse what is not mine everyday. (Infrared sauna therapy, red light therapy, colonic enemas, nature, workouts, meditations)

🧿🧠Personal observations at this snap shot in storybook time

Proud of myself for being unattached to things, people & places. (For you👉Research stoicism. That’s your homework if you’re not familiar 😉) Unattachment has taken a long time to develop & embrace. I finally released fear + labels & truly embodied & embraced my authentic story + everything that makes me (not what I think I need to be for other people).

Truly enjoy conversation & deeper connections with people. Anyone from coworkers to strangers, to patients, to my family & friends. Quality over quantity. These give me energy with the right people.

Such Gratitude for the special friends in my life. They mean much to me. The ones that don’t make me feel guilty for not keeping in constant contact, but always making me feel loved & supported no matter how much or little we talk or physically see each other.

Super proud of myself for loving my body & health, food & workouts & everything that I am enough to not feel the need to chase body goals or change myself anymore. No more self judgment from a criticism standpoint, but an appreciation & observation standpoint.

Super proud of myself for being able to stay present and savor the things I truly enjoy and consider decadent. Especially with carbs, spending, & alcohol. They no longer control me. I no longer use them as numbing mechanisms but something I use for enjoyment. I no longer drink to get drunk, but to savor what I desire in the moment in self loving moderation. Same with safe carbs & spending (I now say investing &/or gifting the Universe).

I no longer feel guilty for spending money like I used to. I tell myself now when I spend I’m gifting the Universe & the people I invest in.

If I know I made an ego or impulse buy, I return it & say thank you for however it served me. Amazon is my best friend, easy returns! If I buy something, I also make myself release/give away something. I don’t like clutter, I like a clear, organized fresh space.

I purge my space weekly. Anything that feels heavy or hordes old energy I now am unattached to & get rid of.

As far as career & fulfillment, I realized it doesn’t matter what job I’m doing or task I’m doing, I simply like doing things, learning, being productive, connecting with people, taking care of people & as long as I’m satisfied in what I’m doing, everything will be amazing. I love being physical & mobile & moving energy.

I don’t have to have a particular job to be worthy or successful or important, I just have to do what lights me up, be kind, & mostly importantly, leave myself & other peoples’ lives better than before they met me.

I realize no matter what I do & put out into this world. My purpose is to make people feel something.🥰

I realize I have the absolute perfect professions for me as a radiologist technologist (which I used to doubt in the past). I literally see people’s’ inner beauty & this matches up perfectly with my medium gifts + being a nutritionist. I finally feel I am on my divine path without the need to question everything.

Current Obsessions:

Cord cutting, new beginnings, vibrational living, food, fitness, & flying your “freak” flag…

One the best things my therapist told me,

“If you’re angry or regretful you’re living in the past, if you’re worrying you’re living in the future, if you’re content you’ll know you’re living in the present. And that’s when life all starts to make sense.”

And THAT my friends is what I hold onto…Every. Single. Day, now.

Walked in the moonlight this morning. 🌙 There’s something about early mornings that charge the soul & allow you to discover & reveal yourself.

I find I wake up now by 3 AM every morning no matter what day it is. I stopped, forcing myself to go back to sleep. 🙄

🚗🤭👉side note, I have made a bed in the back of my red Ford Ecosport. Her name is Ruby btw. She’s my bestie & I’m so grateful to have her as my sidekick during this season of life. She’s keeps me safe & gives me freedom. Bed kinda like this one 🙂 👇

I have made naps my new favorite thing during the day at lunch. I have also stopped forcing myself to stay up when I’m tired. My nap whenever it feels right. I sleep so peaceful in my car. Good thing I’m fun sized. 😂 (5’1 & 105 on a good day 😆 I can still hear my dad telling me I need to put some more lead in my ass Haha) Random thought & confession 🤷‍♀️

Where are all my nappers at?! 👋

I open up my fridge. 🥩🍖

We eating good up in this bish. Beef chuck roast & pork country ribs today from Sam’s Club. I’ll cut these up and air fry them. (Surprise surprise 😂)

Some thoughts about my current food & body. I really love my softer, yet still “athletic” physique. The former more “serious CrossFit athlete” Katie glimmers thru.

(you can scroll through my Instagram to see previous versions of myself. My personal healing & weight loss story is in the link in my Instagram bio) link: https://lilbitoffit.com/my-first-1-year-on-the-carnivore-diet-my-story-journey-transitioning-to-a-meat-based-carnivore-diet/

It’s much easier to maintain muscle & shape once you’ve done the due diligence to build it. That means you have to eat & train with intention Y’all. Not stepping on that soapbox, but somebody needed to hear it. In fact, probably a lot of you who are under eating.

I no longer judge or compare her to the former athlete, or any other former version of myself. I am really proud of every single version I have been. I want my energy to be good now, my digestion to be effortless, & to feel robust & healthy. I call it vibrational, living & eating.

That’s all I care about now. I don’t care about setting body goals anymore, but I am truly grateful for everything I’ve learned throughout all of my seasons…as someone struggling with bulimia, being underweight, being overweight, being a former competitive CrossFit athlete, runner, & everything in between.

Here lately I crave variety in my diet. Higher fat, carnivore than what I was used to. Less ground meat, more steaks, ribs & pork. I’ve been able to consume pork now without any issues in moderation. It’s amazing how the body transforms.

The air fryer is still BAE. His name is Abe by the way. He travels with me. I cook just about everything in him. He’s an instant Vortex 6 quart.

I laugh cuz I feel I’m at a “weird inbetweener” age at 41. I’m an old soul but have such a young spirit.

Stuck between young enough to do it often, old enough to do it right & old enough to know better, young enough not to care.

💁🏼‍♀️MOOD.

Anyone else?😆

Many times I’ve had to remind myself & ask what I’m living for & who I’m living for, & if none of those answers are ME, well then, I’m living the wrong life.

I’m weird as hell according to society standards. I own it with acceptance, love, & PRIDE, now.

I name all my plants, animals, favorite appliances, & things I use because I feel everything in life is alive, has energy, & deserves to be respected & loved.

Denim & Diamonds… image below taken of me by the talented Dave McKenna of Brownsburg, Indiana.

I love all things sparkly, lacey, & pearly. Recently bought these super EXTRA little girls pants size 14 from target yesterday. Totally don’t need them but they fucking make me feel so happy when I put them on. I literally sit in my living room with these pants on & feel like Jasmine in Aladdin. Another semi embarrassing confession, but again, idgaf.💖

I see & treat the janitor the same as I see a physician or someone highly affluent & “successful.” I see souls & energy first, not race, color, sex, sexual preference, or status.

Q from a follower: How do you make decisions & know what’s right for you?

A: you’ll have to feel your way but as far as for me, I’m a human design, manifesting generator profile 2/4 (google or YouTube it if you don’t know yours) I’m driven by my gut feelings/intuition. Warm/light/happy feelings=a YES, heavy/icky/forced/or cold feelings=a NO.

Feel into your feelings & body. There are your answers. I find now as far as food I’m less of a volume eater & more of a nourishment + energy management + experience eater. I no longer have bulimia or binge eat.

Some days I crave different foods or colors or textures. Some days i crave savory food, different textures, crispy food, creamy food, nourishing food, savory foods, cold food, hot food, denser foods, lighter food, sweet food, etc. Some days I want more carbs, most days I don’t & simply want meat.

Daily energetics. Some days I feel certain colors. Like brights or neons Or neutrals or specific colors and I dress & accessorize in those colors because they make me feel amazing, vibrant & share the emotions I’m feeling.

They make me more abundant, help attract more love, higher vibe people and places, feel happier, lighter, more joyful . Eating the foods I’m desiring also does this just like colors. A reason I don’t force things anymore like diets or workouts or jobs or wardrobes or people or my style.

(A reason I hate uniforms & HARD RULES for anything because this is society trying to control us & our creative, vibrational expression.)

If I can offer you anything today with this diary entry, one of the hardest lessons I’ve learned is that it’s MY JOB to create a joyful reality.

RECAP of last nights big life announcement if you missed it…

“Old keys don’t open new doors. BIG Life update!!!⁣

⁣Monthly vibe check for October: clearing out the cobwebs⁣

⁣I slowly started paying attention to the glimmers. ✨ The things that lit me up & made me feel sparkly & light & happy & joyful.⁣

⁣Taking note of the areas that felt stagnant & heavy.⁣

⁣I think it’s important to address how & why cobwebs & dust accumulate. It’s because we are avoiding or not seeing a process/place/people/etc we need to clear out. ⁣

⁣Today (9/29/23) is also a full moon, which is a period of clearing & releasing.⁣

⁣Allow the change of seasons to clear out the gunk/corners/hard to reach areas. Open your windows, seasonally clean. Literally & figuratively.⁣

⁣I had to do this, too.⁣

⁣My BIG announcement as my time here in Quincy comes to an end…⁣

⁣I struggled with the comfort in extending my contract, or staying in Fishers, IN, or choosing the excitement/fear of another unknown adventure. (These still make me scared sh*tless.)⁣

⁣As you learn to lean in & trust, the Universe always shows you your path. Doesn’t mean it ain’t frustrating…trust me…I’ve been heavy & grumbly. ⁣

⁣🥳But today, I officially accepted my next chapter & adventure, I’ll be moving to Omaha, Nebraska very soon for my next assignment with @aureusmedical at a family medicine practice starting November 6th. I’ll be there for 20 weeks into March!⁣

⁣Cannot be more PUMPED & grateful.⁣

⁣LFG🫶 Watch out Cornhuskers, this Boilermaker is comin in HOT!⁣

💛🖤🤍🚂 🤍🖤💛⁣”

Affirmation for you if it hits you in the feels at this moment in life. I know it does for me.

Cord Cutting for New Beginnings

“I release any & all negative past, present, & future energetic cords that are attached to me. I release any and all cords that no longer serve me. I call my energy back to me. I go forth new, recharged, healthy, happy, abundant, & full of love.”

Let everyday be YOURS, OWN IT, & NEVER APOLOGIZE for who you are.

Use the Weekend To Build The Life You Want, Instead of Trying to Escape the Life You Have

I used to get wasted every Friday & Saturday (sometimes Sunday too). I used to wish my life away & only live for weekends & vacations.

Triggered much? 👀🤔😮💭🧐

I reflected upon this memory yesterday as I admired myself in the mirror at the gym. I looked myself in the eyes, smiled, & gave gratitude to life being much different now.

I joined a new gym @blessingwellnesscenter here on my current #travelxray assignment in #quincyillinois with @aureusmedical 💀☢️⚡️🦴🩻😷🏥🚑

Gym & I had a date night 😉 😘 🦾🦿🏋🏼‍♀️

I thought about how many beautiful moments of breath I could’ve used differently.

Point of this diary reflection👉 𝗨𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗪𝗮𝗻𝘁, 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗼𝗳 𝗧𝗿𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗘𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗽𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗛𝗮𝘃𝗲.

You know how they say they invest wisely?Invest your weekends!

A perspective is like a seed. If you get it right, sow it right, take care of it; it will yield you fruits.

One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power.

Most half a$$ their way through life, never deciding to master or enjoy anything in particular, especially those things that light your soul on fire!

🩵Learn something new!

🩵Adventure & collect experiences!

🩵Better your brain 🧠 & your body🫀🦾!

🩵Connect with yourself, nature, & other people!

Weekdays + Weekends = 7, not 5!

The shift to “investing” will happen once you start saying NO to a lot of usual stuff:

❌Say NO to those vapid people & energy suckers.

❌Say NO to unhealthy food & binge drinking.

❌Say NO to the “It’s Ok, it’s the weekend” attitude.

❌Say NO to late-night parties & networking with a crowd that doesn’t care &/or uplevel your being!

❌Say NO to all the things that don’t shift your perspective towards a better self!

Weekends are not an end. They are a beginning. But only when you change your perspective 🧠📈🌱🌻❤️‍🔥

Some things I’ve learned in 41 years

I turned 41 this year.
𝘚𝘰𝘶𝘭 𝘧𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘚𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘢𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘴 & 𝘱𝘩𝘰𝘵𝘰 𝘥𝘶𝘮𝘱.

I don’t remember what I thought life would be like when I turned 21 & thought about turning 40. But right now I can say I feel better now then I did back then.

Days off, simply being present, enjoying nature, wearing clothes I love, doing my nails, doing anything that lights my soul on fire is me creating my heaven & I’m proud of myself.

Along this journey I’ve figured a few things out 🙂 & I want to share with you my biggest takeaway for the last 41 years…

Ready????

It’s easier being EXTRAordinary & exceptional than it is being mediocre & average.

🤷‍♀️Here’s the hard truths & proof…

Most people are unhealthy & overweight. I choose not to be.

Most people are in debt & broke. I choose not to be.

Most people are complacent & lazy & have zero success routine. I am not.

Most people gossip & complain. I do not.

Most people stop learning. I have not.

Most people accept 0 responsibility. I take full accountability for myself, past, present, & future.

Most people are not a good example for their kids or society in general. I try to be the human I’d want my kids (if I could have any) to look up to.

Most people cower from hard conversations & tough situations. I embrace them & choose brutal honesty.

I am not saying I am perfect but a human that simply learns & strives to be better.

If you do the exact opposite of what “most people” do, you will live a pretty exceptional life.

I should warn you tho…

Doing what most people don’t do is not easy. But it’s also what makes it exceptional.

I hope me sharing life & getting older has inspired you 🙂

Go be EXTRAordinary & exceptional!

Thrifting, lifting, Country Style Ribs + how to build your strength workout program

Who do you think you are?” she asked me (my supervisor).

In a performance review when I was 27 I was told that I had a “strong silence” & was “different” which others took as me being arrogant & cold & that I “needed to be more understanding of other people‘s weaknesses.”

💁🏼‍♀️In Beth Dutton fashion, let me interpret this: “Your resting bitch face, your sparkle, & the fact you can do other people’s jobs better make them uncomfortable.” 🤷‍♀️😆

It was eye-opening & ego shattering at the same time. I had no idea that was how I was being perceived. It did encourage me to sit down & observe past behaviors & presentation & how I was “different.”

At that time I was going thru a divorce, in radiology school full-time & working part time on top of it. As I put it, stressed to the titties.🫣

I was like come on sister, my life feels like getting stuck halfway putting on a sports bra when you’re sweaty & ya need Jesus to come down & cut you out of it 😂

When you’re “different” & a “high performer” in life, you might notice that some other people, well — aren’t.

If you want a great life, tattoo these words on your brain: LIFE IS NOT HARD ON YOU; YOU MAKE LIFE HARD FOR YOURSELF.

Life can be hard & people won’t understand you sometimes, yes, but the majority of the “hard” sh*t in life people think is really “hard” in my opinion is really the EASY SH*T.

Just be you & stop over complicating things. People don’t need to understand you you just have to love yourself.

Took myself thrift shopping & a rainy date to the gym yesterday. Had a beautiful day of treasure hunting!

The thing I’ve learned over the years is that many live life haphazardly complacent in a mediocre, lost state…

I hope this can meet you with inspiration today ❤️

HOW TO SHOP AT THRIFT STORES: 7 TIPS FOR FINDING THE HIDDEN GEMS

1. Go in with the right mindset—it’s about finding a treasure.

2. Look through everything, ALL sections. Try them on, they look different on 🙂 If it looks even remotely interesting, throw it in the cart. Have fun!

4. Go often & when the store opens to get the best buys.

5. Feel good supporting the community! My FAVorite part is giving back! My thrift store order of ops: Mom & pop stores → Church stores —> Salvation Army —> Goodwill.

6.Wear outfits that are easy to layer over so you don’t need a fitting room.

7. Buy it if you LOVE it!
