Galvanize Your Mind and Body: Celebrate Yourself (Guest Post by Dr. Marjorie Miles)
Thursday, March 3rd, 2011
One of the basic principles of the Donate Your Weight Program (and the Law of Attraction) is "Focus on Your Successes".
Create a "Celebrate Myself Rewards" List. Write down as many fun, self-care, and pampering things as come to your mind. Think about free things, things you can do in 5 minutes or less, things that you can do alone/with others, things that are extravagant...etc.
Put your list in a prominent place in your home--where you're sure to see it daily.
Be sure to also write down any gratitude moments you experience.
At the end of day, celebrate yourself with a reward from your list.

Get Galvanized Blog Celebrates Two Year Anniversary
Saturday, May 8th, 2010
It was two years ago today when I started the Get Galvanized blog. I was skating with the Fresh Meat division of the L.A. Derby Dolls and I was in the midst of a turning point of my life that entailed much more than skating around in circles.
It was a time of deciding that I was going to be myself and I was going to give up worry and concern about doing things the "right" way. I also decided it was time for some fun in my life. Starting a blog has been a great form of self-expression for me and has also helped me to reconnect with my Life.
To date, I have posted 405 blogs. That's an average of 3.9 per week for the past 2 years. I have enjoyed every minute of it. Documenting my journey has made it real and it has transformed my life because I have a constant visual reminder of who I am and what is important to me. I cannot see this anywhere else in the world except by looking at my creations.
When I look to the outside world, I get a set of rules, regulations and expectations of who I "should" be based on the fact that I'm a White, 44-year-old, female, college instructor and published author. Many times people look right at me and seem to be listening to what I'm saying yet it is clear, they do not see me, they see a stereotype and they hold on to a set of expectations of who they think I am.
I am not interested in being what I "should" be, I am interested in being me and in finding the people who can respect and honor that. I am interested in connecting with people of like-mind and people who are brave enough to be authentic. I hope you enjoy the contents of the blog and also that it gives you courage and initiative to be who YOU are and to dare to share that with the world. It's not always easy but it's fun, exciting and exhilarating. It is Life at it's best and that is worth celebrating.
