A Surprise On My Doorstep

I wrote a little about emotional eating in an earlier post. Not ABOUT emotional eating just that I am an emotional eater. My SIL read that and quickly sent a few gifts to me to support me even more on this journey.

Women Food and God:
An Unexpected Path to Almost Everything

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.

 I've taken a peek into both books and am very excited to read them. I think getting to the root of some issues is entirely key to overcoming the bondage of a lifetime of weight struggles. I also think that these books are EXACTLY what I need and PRECISELY the right time!

Thank you Ness for your ongoing love and support in so many ways! Thank you rooting me on in this journey and these fabulous resources! XOXO!!!
