Mashed Potatoes And You:
​A Timely ​Forgiveness Analogy


​

​Do you like mashed potatoes? 




A Seasonal Similarity

Earlier in the year I discovered the best mashed potato secret you'll ever find.

I knew I wanted to save it for you for the U.S. Thanksgiving holiday when mashed potatoes are typically part of the holiday table.

So what's the secret and where's the analogy?

Soaking and rinsing peeled potatoes before you cook them rinses off the starch.

Why does that matter?

You'll get the lightest fluffiest potatoes you've ever had – even after you stick the leftovers in the fridge and heat them up the next day! No kidding.



The Analogy Part

Rinsing off the potatoes so they cook up lighter reminds me of the fact that a lot of times we often walk around bogged down with old mental and emotional "stuff."

When you have the opportunity to take a look at this internal gooey-ness that keeps you stuck on all kinds of levels and are able to let it go, you feel lighter. What's revealed is a happier, healthier, "fluffier" you.




A Life-Giving Process

One of the best things you can do to help yourself "rinse off" is under the lid of forgiveness. Forgiveness of yourself or another person, entity, or situation is bar none, one of the greatest things you can do for you. The long-reaching positive ripples eventually affect every area of your life.

​Often, it isn't easy.

In my newly released book, Your Divine Riches: Your How To Guide For Creating The Life You Want, there's a chapter called Freedom Through Forgiveness. Here's an excerpt:
​


If you’ve lived long enough on the planet, you’ve most likely experienced deeply painful hurts. They can seem impossible to forgive. 

Forgiveness doesn’t mean you have to personally like anyone, anything, or the actions that hurt you. 

Forgiveness is the purposeful act of releasing a hurtful incident from your mind. It’s an act of self-love. The freedom you’ll receive from doing this is truly life-giving."

​
​
So whether you're cooking, mashing, or eating those fluffy potatoes on Thanksgiving or at another time, remember the potato analogy and forgiveness for yourself, someone, or something.

You'll give yourself the wonderful gift of Lightening Up!
