The Naked Truth: Love
May
04
Hey there hot stuff,
On this week’s Naked Truth, I’ll be revealing my naked truth about love and what I’ve learned over the years. I feel that the self-improvement and steps I’ve taken to grow and nourish myself has been something I’ve been able to pass along to my patients. Not to mention, I’ll be discussing a little bit about my Sexy Liver Detox program that’s launching on May 7, 2012 when the official registration opens for 50 people only. Detoxing is an amazing way to give ourselves some love and with my program you’ll be able to do just that and have a little fun at the same time.
So in the meantime, please let me know what is YOUR Naked Truth when it comes to love?
And if you like this video, SHARE IT & TWEET IT (#NakedTruth). Just show sexy mama some love, will ya?
And if you’re not signed up to the Red Couch Confessions newsletter, then here’s your chance because it’ll give you the first word the second the official registration opens.

My naked truth is definitely settling for Mr. Nice Guy because it was the safe bet I knew I could count on. Mr Nice Guy was always there and let me win every time. But Mr Nice Guys NEVER helped me grow! They never challenged me, they never contributed enough to the equation. I was too scared to allow myself to be vulnerable so I chose the nice guys because I wouldn’t have to! Learning to accept my shadow side, my vulnerabilities, and be okay with them has been the step toward loving myself that allowed me to love all others in such a big way – as you talk about, how about nourishing your existing relationships? Coming to terms with my own vulnerability (and ditching the Mr nice guy all the time) has allowed me to be more empathetic towards all of my friends and family. I recently came across Khalil Gibran’s take on lurve/marriage which I like a lot:
Give your hearts, but not into each other’s keeping.
For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts.
And stand together yet not too near together:
For the pillars of the temple stand apart,
And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other’s shadow.

The Naked Truth:
Everyone has their own perception on love and what it takes to be in love. I have currently come out of a 6 year relationship. As a 22 year old women, just starting her career and purchasing a home, the loneliness is, well, empowering. I am learning so much about myself. It is cliche to say the least, and i am not saying that it is easy by any means. The lows can be low but the independence is the greatest high ever! Learning to how to love yourself is so important.
The ‘Naked Truth’ and ‘Red Couch Confessions’ are so relevant to EVERYTHING that is going on in my life. Thank you So much Melissa, you are very encouraging and your revaluations make people like ME. Feel some what normal about everything going on in my life. And i KNOW i am not the only one.
