Time to Detox Your Frocks

We are born frock-less The promise of a new year, like beautiful newborn baby, fills many with anticipation and excitement. The prospect of all that is to come, brings joy and creates unbridled enthusiasm.

We are born innocent; we don no frocks – none at all. As we grow, we acquire and accumulate frocks either by choice or by default.

Frocks are attitudes, beliefs, clothing, secrets, conformity, guilt, regret and shame; they come in all shapes and sizes but this does not mean one size meets all. In fact I may don a frock of family values that is completely opposite yours.

My frock may state that no matter how I feel I must never rock the boat in the family. I must comply. The frock is the belief that to be a loving family member there must be no strife or disagreement in the family even when things feel wrong.

Over time we become one with the frocks so much so they represent who we are in the world.

For the record, there are Frock-Fabulous-Frocks as well as Ill-Serving Frocks.

Detox Your Frocks – has a nice ring to it, don’t you think? Detoxing your ill-serving frocks will move you toward a frock-alicious, frock-free life.

And what better time to detox your frocks than at the beginning of the new year? Sounds simple enough, right? Well not really, some frocks may stem back to childhood.

So what to do?

Start with the end in mind. What does “your” frock-alicious life look like? Some people like to create vision boards, some like to write it out. I am a vision board kind of girl. Once you determine what a frock-alicious life looks like for you, you are ready to start the frock off diet.

3 simple steps to detox your frocks.

1. Identify what ill-serving frocks you might currently be donning.

2. Question why you are donning that particular frock? Dig deep to discover the “why”. At times we don frocks for safety, out of habit, or at times we may even don frocks because they have a payoff.

3. Ask yourself: Is this frock serving me in my life and helping me reach my goal of a frock-alicious life? If not, get rid of it – toss it out and replace it with a frock-tabulous frock.

Be your own super hero by taking back your life.
