| The holiday season is on the way, winter
and cold weather are just around the corner, are you concerned
about extra weight does it seem difficult to loose despite
trying all kind of quick fix cures and miracle diets, if the
answer is yes you may be dreading tempting less than healthy
holiday fare, but don’t despair you really can stop
comfort eating and overeating for good, the answer is in your
mind and your emotions, and it wont cost you a cent.
One of the first ways to stop comfort eating and overeating
is to use this simple Self-Healing tool, each and every day
take a moment and tell yourself firmly and clearly in your
mind “I love myself completely without condition”
Your goal is to be able to say these words easily, mean them
totally, and to feel comfortable even joyful about them.
Until you have reached that point understand that you have
some inner healing and processing to do with and for yourself.
Not loving ourselves completely without condition is the root
cause of a wide range of pains and problems including poor
health, accepting poor even abusive relationships, overeating,
lack of abundance in our lives, and much more.
As you repeat the words “I love myself completely without
condition “every day thoughts and feeling will come
to the surface that tell you this is not true for example,”
I don’t deserve,” I am not good enough”
I should/could do more, these are all common objections lodged
in our minds emotions and beings.
The great news is we are not “stuck” we don’t
have to accept this negative programming any longer, “we
can heal ourselves” we each have the capability.
How to move on, Sit down with a pen and paper lets start
to deal with all the objections to why you should not love
yourself completely without condition, ask yourself Who said
that you are not good enough? When was the first time you
felt that way? How old were you then? Who made or led you
to believe that you are not good enough? Use questions like
these to trace the root causes of your poor feelings about
yourself and then choose not to see things in these ways again.Find
something positive in all negatives there is always something,
always another perspective that you can choose to have.
Decide that you will find your own answers with ease, take
as much time as you like to do so, days even weeks., To deal
with these issues is not just important its vital to your
physical mental and emotional health balance and well being.
Nowadays more and more people are starting to realize that
life isn’t something that “just happens to us’
we are in fact creating it ourselves from the inside of our
selves, and much of our miserable unhappy life experiences
are created by us because we have poor thoughts and feelings
about ourselves. Thoughts and emotions create reality, science
and physics can prove this now, watch the film “What
the bleep do we know about life” it will put into perspective
what I am saying and is guaranteed to be at the very least
thought provoking and inspiring.
Back to our original question, “Why do we comfort eat
and overeat?” Answers include to feel safe and to feel
full. Have you noticed that when we comfort eat or overeat
we tend to go for sweet tasting or bulky foods why? The answer
is because we desperately want to feel full,, we eat sweet
things because we either are not attracting, creating, or
accepting enough sweet things into our lives.
When we comfort eat or overeat we are literally emotionally
starving, or suppressing our own expression of ourselves in
someway, usually because we are afraid of being judged or
not loved.
Even for people who have been stuck in these patterns for
many years the good news is we can stop overeating and comfort
eating and as a result shed excess weight easily and naturally.
To begin the process make a commitment to yourself “now”
that you will stop using food to comfort yourself.
Stop relying on other people to make you happy and avoid then
being devastated when they don’t.
Start today taking care of and loving yourself.
Start using other ways to comfort yourself when you need comfort.
The very next time you are about to overeat or comfort eat
STOP instead try any or all of the following simple self -healing
tools they work.
Exercise, Think of something wonderful, amazing, or sweet
that you did or that happened to you, perhaps someone gave
you, or something, that you achieved, saw or felt. Now hold
that thought, that memory, and allow yourself to really feel
all of the good feelings that this brings to you.
Open your mouth wide, breathe those good feelings all through
your body, like there is a never ending source of them, fill
yourself up with them, this is like having a wonderful fantastic
meal except that you are breathing sustenance vs. eating it
and its not fattening and guess what way more fulfilling.
You can follow on with this exercise in a perhaps unusual
way by writing list of as many as you can think of”
wow” moments in your life, then the next time you feel
starving and want to comfort eat, instead of choosing between
coffee, donuts potato chips or chocolate you can select a
great memory from your list instead and breath all through
your body the great feelings that memory brings, you could
call this your “good food list”
Just think feelings are vibrations as you fill yourself up
with great vibrations you not only give yourself exactly what
you need but when full you will be coming from and creating
from in fact creating your day/reality and life from good
vibrations.
For anyone who is afraid of accepting good things for fear
of “it won’t last” or will be taken away,
its important to get comfortable with feeling “good”
all or at least most of the time, the above exercise will
help to do just that.
Touch.
Can you believe that rubbing your chest and stomach will stop
you from comfort eating its true read on.
Our emotions are located in our stomach and our chest area,
so whenever you are angry, stressed, upset, drained, afraid,
hurt or wounded and ready to comfort eat, use the following
tool it’s guaranteed to calm, balance and soothe putting
you back in control.
Place one hand open firmly on your chest and rub firmly backwards
and forwards, then around and around in circles its not important
which direction you move in, keep your head up straight, open
your moth and breath long slow deep breathes from the bottom
of your stomach, after a few minutes do exactly the same with
your other hand on your stomach, you can if you wish rub both
places firmly at the same time, soon you will feel much better,
for an extra benefit say firmly in your mind three or four
times, “I am letting go easily of everything I no longer
need”This affirmation will take effect quickly on all
levels.
Don’t forget that you “always have a choice “you
can take control of your life and well being, the self healing
tools are there to use, you have the power to love and comfort
yourself, you never need to use food in an abusive way again.Remember
then food is in our lives to eat to live and also of course
to enjoy but not for comforting ourselves with…
