Exactly how you will feel will be completely unique to you. Most report a feeling of regaining the vitality they had gradually lost as other things got in the way. A feeling of being more comfortable in their own skin, feeling more like themselves - alert and relaxed, alive and quiet at the same time.

The shifts are so organic to the brain that the way you feel and act seem perfectly natural – and it is, as you are acting more like yourself, and less from automatic reactions. It doesn’t mean you won’t get slapped about – it just means you’ll handle it in a healthier way, and it won’t linger as before.

It can be difficult to assess emotions that have troubled you once they have faded - like remembering a toothache, that is all consuming while it’s there, but when gone you don’t notice its absence. Sometimes it takes others around us to notice the difference. As we gain greater distance from the time of change it is easier to see that we’re functioning in a more balanced way.

A fully balanced state is experienced as happiness, contentment, clarity, and a sense of being grounded in the present moment. Being in balance allows you to gain control and make choices that you weren’t able to before, as getting out of stuck habits allows you the freedom to choose your reactions.
