Board Meeting of Inner Selves

[jock]

Just I miss that feeling of jogging and how I felt after a run.
But I take your point.
Have a nice day Anita and don’t walk too far today!! 🙂

Dear Jack:

I will walk only 2.5 miles, that is only 4 km (in addition to the morning walk)- but then I do no other physical thing, some core work (crunches and such) and some yoga stretches. I wonder how you are doing after the last board meeting? Did Max successfully motivate you?

It is raining here and wood is burning in the wood stove. It is 89 degrees though in LA where I used to live.

Hey I am definitely more mindful of not eating biscuits for a while. And I walked for 2 hours yesterday.
I admit that writing about Max the Motivator and not actually doing anything about it, would be highly hypocritical. You haven’t met Harry the Hypocrite yet. He does attend the occasional meeting. I try to limit his influence and am mostly successful. I find it is best not to talk too proud, in case you can’t follow up. Walk the talk which is something you are definitely good at.

Dear Jack:

Some of the Inner Selves are doing the bullying, others are the ones being bullied. Max the Motivator, Adam the Adult, Llama Jack, these are mostly the good guys. I think Harry is bullied. Just because you don’t follow through some times is no reason for Norman to call Harry a hypocrite! (I hate Norman)

Congrats for the two hours walk and biscuit abstinence.

interesting what you say about Norman. And I thought he was one of the good guys 🙂

I do repeat myself with: I hate Norman, and I did it again.

Oh, to my record of exercise i also do dumbells every other day.

re exercise
I use resistance bands to avoid injury before using dumb bells.
What do you think of resistance bands?

[Anonymous]

I have resistance bands but my neighbor, a girl, broke one of the handles and I didn’t use them since. They are excellent and I should get a new handle and/ or otherwise use them. And always carefully and slowly, almost everything done slowly is better, better exercise and safer. Walking should start slow but then speed. Running, never.

One more thing Jack: second day of no Tammy, no Fran other than a whisper. I didn’t eat too much (did not overeat) second day in a row. This is indeed a testimonial to the effectiveness of your Inner Self Therapy (IST)

Now let me introduce Dr. Jack Kornfield. Jack is going to give us a talk today on a revolutionary new self-therapy called IST or Inner Self Therapy.
Dr Jack: thank you Mr. Chairman. But first let me tell you about a person who really deserves all the credit for this sensational therapy. I’m referring to a Dr. Anita Freud, great grand-daughter of Sigmund. Her insights and analyses are mind-boggling, super-outrageous, bowl me over brilliant, totally awesome. I could go on and on…and I will…earth-shatteringly sharp, intensely and intellectually iconic, ..
Chairman: OK jack that’s enough. So tell us what makes IST so profound, so unique, so wing machine?

Thank you Dr. Jack. I am profoundly humbled, outrageously mind boggled and otherwise well, pleased. Oh, so pleased to be associated with such adjectives as great, brilliant, awesome, earth shattering, sharp, and please do go on and on… My self esteem is in no danger of being overly attended to.

To your next post.
