Weight Loss Is Not Your Job!

If you ask me, weight loss is NOT your job. Feeling good is your job- as in living in a way that gives you lots of good options and choices. Weight loss is best left to the Divine.

In my experience, when you focus on weight or losing weight, it goes bad very fast. As in binges and feeling out of control with food. Back WAY up! (Note: see yesterday’s post “You Can’t Go Head to Head With The Food”)

The way you will be happiest and most comfortable and bring your body and relationship with food into balance is to focus on daily sacred rituals that keep emotions and energies moving smoothly. My belief has always been that people struggling with food/weight are particularly sensitive/empaths and need ways to stay grounded. In my work I help people develop individually supportive forms of meditation, writing, physical movement, and ways of eating to accomplish this. We also create prayers and specific energy healing techniques. This is where your “work” lies- not the focus on weight or trying to force your body to change. Your body will change when you are back in balance. When you are nourished in your senses in ways that feel beautiful for you, when you surround yourself with loving people who appreciate you, when you stop expecting yourself to be perfect…those are all places worthy of your energy and focus.

Your body will find it’s happiest size and form. Trying to force it to some ideal that you have is a kind of aggression that won’t work- there will be push-back. Better to work at things that can bring you pleasure and a sense of satisfaction in the moment. They add up, they shift your energies and emotions and you will feel better even if your body doesn’t change at all (but paradoxically it will when you stop trying to wrestle it to the ground).
