Make it to all my medical appointments without stressing out beforehand
Ask more questions assertively during medical appointment
Be more objectively supportive, in a calm, positive manner when others are stressed
Stop myself at the start of a negative thought, counter it with a positive one and smile inside and out, glorious!
Assertively confront when necessary, without breaking down in tears afterwards
Listen to music in my car and enjoy it
Allow myself time to sit, relax and do nothing
Let my home be less than perfect and be comfortable with this
Say "no" when I am too tired...and not feel guilty
Ask for help around the house...and not feel inadequate for doing so
Realize when I am getting a bit anxious and calm and comfort myself
Accept that "healthy selfish" is OK, even wonderful
Live day to day without planning months and years ahead for things that I have no control over anyway
Love myself more and more with each passing day
Look forward to the day and tomorrow, knowing that whatever comes my way; I CAN handle it, and a great deal better than ever before
Listen to the program's CD's whenever I want to, which is often, and know that it is simply review and reinforcement, and that I am NEVER going back to where I was!

Thank you again. I am so proud of myself that it brings joyful tears to my eyes now and then. I have shared information about your program with several people, and often feel like shouting from a mountaintop, "It really works!" That is how miraculous this program is to me.
Sincerely,
