Hello Health and Lifestyle VIPs,
It’s Dr. Bernadette, your friendly informative family medicine doctor, prescribing health, healing and happiness and awakening the real you. A profound statement by Iyanla Vanzant was a moment of true discovery for me, “Holding on to pain, anger, guilt or shame is the glue that binds us to the situation we want to escape.” It’s difficult to release hurts and disappointments we have spent a lifetime nurturing; especially, when they involve other people or events beyond our control. While forgiveness can be complicated, it was this very act that gave me the unparalleled freedom to live my destiny and drop over 140 pounds!
