Haven't posted for a while and thought I'd better stop thinking about it and start doing something about it. The last couple of months I have been recovering from my surgery and feeling quite sorry for myself to be honest. I started reading this book, and for the last couple of months the book has been "willing me" so to speak, to read it. Someone had mentioned it to me and it was in the back of my mind and then last week a friend I visited had it on her table and mentioned it was on sale at Myer so I thought to myself no excuses go buy the book and see what this is all about. Well I haven't been able to put it down and the only reason I haven't finished it yet is because I have been so busy I have been flaking out at night which for me is a good thing.
Without giving too much away the Secret is basically the Laws of Attraction, meaning your life's outcome is a mind willing process. The Laws of Attraction dictate that what you think and will yourself brings more to you. The happier and more confident your thoughts are draws happier and more confident life experiences.
Sounds far fetched..try it, it works! I'm not saying I have had a total life change, but baby steps, it has been quite amazing.
On another note I was reading Ali Edwards blog the other day about her experience with Hypothyroidism, of course I was intrigued as I have been suffering from Graves Disease for years now. What I really loved about her post was how open and sharing she was. She is such a Real person.
I have basically been suffering from Graves Disease for probably the last five years if not more. Graves is an auto immune disorder which is related to the Thyroid. The Thyroid produces hormones and if not functioning properly causes symptoms like depression, fatigue, cold intolerance, irritability and more. In my case Graves is an incurable disease and I will be on medication for the rest of my life, like Thyroid suffers.
Having never suffered from any kind of major sickness or ever having an operation, when I was first diagnosed I was in a total state of shock and grief. Over the years it has given me great comfort in knowing there are so many sufferer's out there and I am not alone.
