Levitate Through Life With Me ~ Janice Taylor, Anti-Gravity Coach, Positarian, Artist, Author<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This past weekend (yes, Memorial Day Weekend)<\/em>, Our Lady of Weight Loss<\/a> and I headed to the beach.\u00a0 It was too cool for a swim, for sure, and too traumatic to step into a bathing suit, for sure.\u00a0 For both of us.\u00a0 Even though, I permanently removed over 50 pounds over a decade ago (that’s right…we’re talkin’ permanent fat removal<\/em>), the thought of wearing such a small garb pushes my buttons, if you know what I mean.<\/p>\n

So, we (OLofWL and I<\/em>) sat on the sand, and together we watched the tide going out and in and out again, and in sync with the tide we took in deep cleansing breaths.\u00a0 On the in breath, we experienced our bodies, and on the out breath we transformed those feelings, thoughts, experiences into poetry. Breathe in experience; breathe out poetry.<\/p>\n

And then we discussed how to buy and wear a bathing suit, minus the trauma.\u00a0 We came up with a few solid tips to share with you now, before the extreme heat hits.\u00a0 We like to be prepared!<\/p>\n

Bathing Suit Trauma.<\/i><\/b>
\nHow to buy and wear a bathing suit; feel good and strut your stuff without going off the deep end.<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0 Do NOT Go with the Latest Style.<\/i><\/b>\u00a0 Mix and match and find what works best for you!<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0 You Look Better Than You Think.<\/i><\/b>\u00a0 I promise, you do!\u00a0 Most of us have an inaccurate read on how we look.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0 Wrap It.<\/i><\/b>\u00a0 If you are truly uncomfortable, wrap your waist in some fashionable cover-up.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0 Mirror.\u00a0 <\/i><\/b>When you are looking in the mirror, zero in on a favorite part of yourself.\u00a0 Maybe it\u2019s your eyes, or your lips \u2026 your soul!<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0 Remember.<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0 You are not alone in this craziness.\u00a0 Both Our Lady of Weight Loss and I are with you every ounce of the weigh!<\/p>\n
