You Are Lovable & Worthy {Key #2}

Tanya Penny Occupational Therapist Vibrant Body Abundant Life Coach

I’m Tanya Penny, Self-Love Catalyst, Vibrant Body and Abundant Life Coach. In this post we are focusing on Key #2 of the Vibrant Body and Abundant Life Blueprint – You Are Lovable & Worthy. I’ll be giving you a taste of this key. If you haven’t signed-up to learn about all 10 keys yet, you can receive the Guide and Guided Therapeutic Meditation Practice by clicking here.

When I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 2004 (and weight, anxiety, depression, pain and headaches before then), and was searching on how to heal it, what I found was that cultivating self-acceptance, love and worth is key to not only heal all of it, but to also receive abundance in all areas of your life- love, money, purpose, passions, all of it. One of the most common beliefs in the world is that “I’m not acceptable, lovable, or worthwhile” (or some version of that). I haven’t met one person who doesn’t struggle with this belief to some degree.

The beliefs you hold create what you are experiencing and receiving in life. They can hold you back or support you to have a healthy, abundant life. Your beliefs come mainly from your childhood – the way that you were treated or not treated, what you also saw or heard growing up. We look back but we don’t stare…and we are not here to blame anybody. The truth is we all struggle with the “not enough” belief to some degree, including our parents. Example- I grew up with a father who was very critical (of himself, me, my mother, other people) and perfectionistic. The “not good enough” seed was planted. I also saw my mother not having a lot of acceptance and love for herself. She stayed in an abusive relationship for 16 years, often put herself second or last due to giving her time and attention to other people. She also criticized herself and her body. So those experiences are part of why I struggled with self-acceptance & love. I also had other abuse growing up which made me feel that there must be something wrong with me (or I wouldn’t have been abused). In a nutshell, it is the experiences of your past and past lives that have formed your “not good enough, lovable, worthwhile” beliefs.

So how do we shift these beliefs? Learn to accept and love ourselves more? Embody our worthiness? Here are some tips and tools to get started with:

1) Rate yourself on a scale of 1-10 (1= very little self-acceptance, love and worth and 10= complete). Rate yourself with no judgement, just awareness. We need awareness, as we can’t change anything we’re not aware of.

2) Reflect: Why do you struggle with feeling not good enough, lovable or worthwhile? How were you treated (or not) growing up that contributed to this.

3) How is not having 100% self-acceptance, love and worth affecting your seven life areas currently- Self (self-talk), Health (mind/body), Love/Relationships, Purpose/Career, Passions, Money/Material, Spirituality? Again, awareness and acceptance is key, not judging or beating yourself up for what you become aware of.

4) Listen to a guided therapeutic meditation practice daily to accept and love yourself.

5) Every time you notice negative or unkind self-talk, change it to thoughts or words of compassion, acceptance and love.

Those are a few tips and tools to get started today, and you can check out the programs below to receive more wisdom, tools, and support from me.

xoxo Tanya 🙂

Discover & Shift Limiting Beliefs {Key #1 – Part 3}

Tanya Penny Occupational Therapist Vibrant Body Abundant Life Coach

Hello, I’m Tanya Penny, Occupational Therapist, Vibrant Body & Abundant Life Coach. In this post we will be focusing on Key #1 of the Vibrant Body and Abundant Life Blueprint – Your Beliefs. If you haven’t signed-up to learn about all 10 keys yet, you can receive the 10 Keys Blueprint Guide, audio lesson and guided Therapeutic Meditation Practice by clicking here. In this post, we are going to talk about why it’s important to discover your beliefs, where these beliefs come from, as well as tips & tools you can start using today to discover your beliefs and begin shifting them. Why take the time to discover and shift your beliefs? We’re going to begin today and then go more deeply in the Vibrant Body & Abundant Body Mastery program. I invite you to check it out at the link below. The truth is that your beliefs 100% affect your behavior and your actions (or lack of). Your beliefs also cause emotions. They can cause happiness, peace or fear, anxiety, depression, anger (fill in the blank). If your beliefs are not in alignment with your true self, they’re holding you back in one or more life areas. That is how we end up eventually getting sick, because we’re not acting from a place of our heart’s desire, soul’s desire, our authentic self. We’re acting from those ego conditioned, limiting beliefs which are full of negativity, scarcity, etc. That’s why you want to take the time to discover and then … Continue reading →

Healing Your Emotions, Trauma & Illness {Key #1 – Part 2}

Tanya Penny Occupational Therapist Vibrant Body Abundant Life Coach

Hello, I’m Tanya Penny, Occupational Therapist, Vibrant Body & Abundant Life Coach. In this post we will be focusing on Key #1 of the Vibrant Body and Abundant Life Blueprint – You Are Divine ~ Your Feelings & Emotions. If you haven’t signed-up to learn about all 10 keys yet, you can receive the 10 Keys Blueprint Guide, audio lesson and guided Therapeutic Meditation Practice by clicking here. Feelings or symptoms in our body, from a mind/body healing perspective, are letting us know that we are out of alignment or balance in one or more areas of our life. The seven life areas are self (how we talk to and treat ourselves), health (mind and body), spirituality, passions, purpose, money/material and love/ relationships. When your body gives you a symptom, what we typically do is we get afraid or angry and try to resist it, push it away. When really what we want to begin to do, if you haven’t already, is to get curious and ask the symptom/feeling/area in your body “Why are you here? What is it you are trying to tell me or show me?” What I often do is have my clients use, as a reference, the Louise Hay book “Heal Your Body”. If you have the big version, look in the back as it lists all the symptoms that you might have and gives you the probable mental and/or emotional causes. That can often be helpful to decipher the clues that the body is giving … Continue reading →

Your Divine Desires {Key #1 – Part 1}

Tanya Penny Occupational Therapist Vibrant Body Abundant Life Coach

Hello, I’m Tanya Penny, Occupational Therapist, Vibrant Body & Abundant Life Coach. In this post we will be focusing on Key #1 of the Vibrant Body and Abundant Life Blueprint – You Are Divine ~ Your Desires. If you haven’t signed-up to learn about all 10 keys yet, you can receive the 10 Keys Blueprint Guide, audio lesson and guided Therapeutic Meditation Practice by clicking here. Learning to re-connect with all parts of you is key to healing and receiving abundance in your life. The first self-connection area we are focusing on is connecting with your desires. Before we move into connecting with yourself and your desires, I feel it is important to share a bit about what could block you from doing so. One of the biggest is not accepting who you truly are, usually because we weren’t accepted or shamed for who were and what we wanted while growing up. Another big block is that we don’t take the time. We don’t take time to connect with ourselves because we are too busy – working too much, people pleasing, doing everything for others… leaving little time to connect with ourselves. Or we might take time to discover what our desires are, but then not fulfill them because – we’re afraid of what other people might say or we don’t think we’re going to do them good enough. Maybe you’ve been taught that you can’t have what you desire, you don’t deserve it, or you’re not worth it. So … Continue reading →

Autoimmune Disorders & Attacking Yourself

Tanya Penny Occupational Therapist Vibrant Body Abundant Life Coach

Sadly, I began “attacking” myself when I was very young…probably around the age of 7 or 8 years old, or perhaps even earlier. As with most of us, it started with my thoughts. A little voice in my head judging me and telling me I was stupid, ugly, fat, and never doing enough or good enough. These attacking thoughts led to nasty, unkind words I would hear myself speak out loud when looking in the mirror, reading my report card or if I made a “mistake”. My words lead to destructive actions… physically pushing myself too hard at work, starving myself(or binging), drinking too much, putting others needs first, and allowing men to treat me like shit to name a few. Even though I rarely attack myself anymore, writing this still stirs up lots of emotions for me as I believe my Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis was due to me attacking myself. Truth: Any Autoimmune Disorder is caused by the body attacking itself. In other words, YOU attacking yourself with your thoughts, words, and actions. As you may know, I have healed myself of the M.S. and am passionate about supporting others to heal Autoimmune Disorders and illness too. Despite what western medicine says, A.I. can be healed.
