Has it changed yet? Is it better? Is it shifting now?
Sometimes we get so caught up in waiting for something to change that we actually miss the other things that have already blossomed.
We set our minds for one outcome and head straight in that direction without looking left or right, almost as if we have side blinders on.
The issue is while you are on this journey, and remember that’s what it is- a journey, there are many beautiful scenes along the way.
For example, while I was working with The Healing Codes on some significant autoimmune issues, I found my skin clearing up.
I couldn’t figure it out. I hadn’t focused any of my attention on that and it wasn’t my highest priority to. My skin wasn’t THAT bad, and that’s not where I would choose for my healing energy to go.
So what the heck?
Another benefit was and still is, Β an increase of patience with my kids. It seems so much easier to do activities with them. I don’t get stressed out if they are having conflicts or not getting along. Life is full of those, and if we can respond with less stress, think of how much better you’ll feel.
Do you always need to have your ducks in a row?

I used to hate going out with my husband if he didn’t give me enough of a heads up. It freaked me out if I didn’t have things all planned ahead of time.
You know what? The other night, Β he asked last minute if I wanted to go out for dinner.
I was all, “heck yeah!” He even commented later about my being more flexible with many things these days.
I’m a newly recruited “Go-With-The-Flow-er.” With being a very, plan for everything, type person, this brings a smile to my face. You don’t know how many opportunities are lost by being so rigid with your plans.
Whether you are working toward healing a health, business, or a relationship issue, it will make the process so much more rewarding if you are enjoying the other gifts in the process.
How to see your changes easier along the way.
- Every morning when you first open your eyes, think of one thing that was great that happenedΒ the day before. Remember this can be as simple as taking the time to read to your child.
- Write down five things you are grateful for today.
- Take down at least oneΒ positive change in how you feel emotionally today.
- Write down any positive changes you feel in how you respond to life’s circumstances.
- Β Take down one positive physical change you have experienced today.
Remember that if you are working with The Healing Codes, you are working on the emotional root cause of your issues.
It sometimes takes time for any physical issues to catch up. Once the stress from the underlying negative emotion, beliefs, and memories are removed, your body is able to do what it was designed for and heal itself.
We didn’t get this way overnight, so it makes sense that it would take some time to heal once the blocks are removed.
That being said, I was shocked when I very first started with The Healing Codes. After only three days, an inflammation issue I had for six months was gone.
That was a huge sign for me, and it spurred me to continue on with zeal. Not everyone gets results that fast, but I was very happy to be one that did.
Whatever healing modality you are using, just remember to keep looking for the positive changes and it will help keep you on your path.
There is so much beauty to see along the way, so enjoy every new accomplishment and change.
And remember to have fun while you travel.
Your health is a journey, not a destination.
Melissa,
I struggle with the “go with the flow” concept myself. I am trying to get better, but that controlling part of me and the part of me that needs order makes it difficult. I really liked your list of items. I just went and made a list of what I am grateful for, and I’ll work on these others. What I like is that they are covering what happened today, so that I can see the great things that every day has in store for me. Refreshing practice! Thank you!
Thanks Victor,
I hope it is something that can help ongoing. I make lists daily and just the act of writing down everything is very helpful to me. Yes the go-with-the-flow is a BIG thing for me. Definitely still a work in progress-Ha!
Thanks for stopping by! Have a great week!
Fresh and uplifting Melissa, Thank You.
I like your 5 pointers to ‘monitor’ your change … adds to the experience.
I don’t mind going with the flow at times … as long as it’s ‘goin’ my way’.
Be good to yourself

Oh my gosh David, you are funny! It reminded me of this post I wrote a while ago http://melissazoske.com/2013/07/09/going-with-the-flow/
My friend says she is a go with the flow type person. I realized at one point she loved to go with the flow, ONLY when it was the flow she made. When I pointed that out she laughed hard- it’s the truthβ¦ It’s EASY to go with the flow when you’re the one making it π
Thanks for stopping by David.
Pleasure … is all mine Melissa. I enjoyed your fresh approach. Here’s to better flows.
Be good to yourself

It’s amazing how the energy shift in one area can spread to areas that we didn’t even appreciate could use a helping hand.
I so believe in looking for the positive changes in life Melissa, we overlook them so often because our attention is placed on a perceived ‘problem’. Thanks for the reminders.
I’m glad you liked it Elle.
Everything heals in layers. Think of all the wonderful healing that goes on as we are working through all of them. It can be so much fun watching everything change.
I usually start working with people for health issues. Then when they are feeling better they switch gears to something else that they started to notice changes in as well, like repairing a relationship. It’s nice when they notice those things changing while they where softened, working on a supposedly unrelated issue. So cool!
Thanks again.
I agree fresh and uplifting. I especially like no. 4 write down any positive changes you feel in how you respond to lifeβs circumstances. This one alone would be life changing. I’m going to add this step when I record my successes!
Thanks Tess,
That was a great one for me. Just noticing I didn’t react or respond too quickly over things that would have upset me before. That change has made my life so much better all by itself. What a gift!
Thanks so much for stopping by π
Beautiful post Melissa,
It is so true, especially with health issues, that it takes time and if you don’t notice all the little things along the way you’ll become discouraged. It does take effort to get your mind off that goal and just enjoy where you are at in the process…and that you ARE getting there! π I loved your story about being in the flow with your husband’s last minute dates! My husband popped in my office last Friday and asked if I felt adventurous… and then asked me to drive out to CA for the weekend with him (which meant leaving in 2 hours!) I freaked out in my mind and then took a deep breath and said, “I’m in!” It was the BEST decision because I had zero expectations and just enjoyed every twist and turn in the journey. Funny how when we let go into the flow how much easier it all gets! π Thank you for the reminder. xo
I love that story Karen! Isn’t it fun when we let that go? I know for me once I let myself just go with it a few times, it got easier every time. Now it feels so much more natural and I LOVE it!
Thanks for stopping by π
I am beginning to think how alike the few of us are.
I used to dislike being interrupted when I was working. I didn’t used to respond well to last minute requests. However, over the years, I have learned to relax a lot more. I am able to set aside work and do things more spontaneously with my husband. I feel a lot happier from having the freedom to live in the moment!
Thanks for stopping by Evelyn,
I know right? There is definitely a great connection there π I love what you said, ‘having the freedom to live in the moment.” That’s where its all at.
Have a great rest of the week.
Thanks Melissa for the reminder! It is a journey and instead of full steam ahead I have to remember to have gratitude for what’s already all around me!! xoxo!
Yes Jessica,
I need the reminder often. It keeps everything balanced for me. Glad it helped girl!
Thanks for being here!
Great advice here Melissa to find the joy along the way and not be so caught up in the end result. I am a pretty flexible, relaxed person at this point. I taught school for many years and realized I always needed to have a Plan B in my back pocket and “go with the flow.” The work with the Healing Codes sounds interesting, so I appreciate you sharing the information. Thanks for an inspiring post!
that’s awesome Cathy! It takes a special person to be a teacher. Having 4 kids I’ve seen some great ones. Amazing how much patience it takes to teach other peoples kids.
Thanks for stopping by and happy hump day π
Hi Melissa,
I like your 5 point of change. Actually there’s a couple on there that I don’t think I’ve tried in quite some time. And they’re good too, because, it’s not always easy to be ‘super flexable’. ‘Peace’ (these days) is at all-time premium. We need it. Our kids need it. And ‘Lord knows, our spouses need it. π
Robb
Thanks Robb,
I really appreciate your stopping by. I like getting reminders from others as well. It helps keep the positive flowing, right? I’m due for a little ‘Peace’ as we speak and heading off for 20 minutes to capture some-HA!
Have a great week and I hope it’s extra flexible for you π
