What is your relationship with food?
Do you have one?
Do you use it as a tool to deal with stress or other emotional pain?
Geneen Roth, an author and speaker that greatly admire has written a book:
Women God and Food: An Unexpected Path to Almost Everything could be worth a read.
A quote:
"The way you eat is inseparable from your core beliefs about being alive. No matter how sophisticated or wise or enlightened you believe you are, how you eat tells all. The world is on your plate. When you begin to understand what prompts you to use food as a way to numb or distract yourself, the process takes you deeper into realms of spirit and to the bright center of your own life. Rather than getting rid of or instantly changing your conflicted relationship with food, Women Food and God is about welcoming what is already here, and contacting the part of yourself that is already whole — divinity itself."
“we don’t want to eat hot fudge sundaes as much as we want our lives to be hot fudge sundaes.”
How many of us can relate to this?
What I know from life and having spent many years now working with people is that so many of us tie our emotions to food. In order to bring your self to a place where all the elements are centered and balanced this relationship needs to be dealt with.
