Habits

We often get our eating habits from our parents.  Let’s borrow benefits and tap some charge off Pt  4

KC: Even though I still remember how comforting it was to be comforted by food when I was little I’m ready to grow up
KC: Even though I got my mother’s attention when I was sick and she gave me ice cream ---I honor and acknowledge this ingrained habit and attention seeking habit
KC: Even though as a kid I’d sneak food when I was scared to take care of myself---I honor and acknowledge this habit and realize now I have the skills to comfort myself in different ways

EB: All these feeling of comfort from food
SE: Attention and food from my mother 
UE: Food to distract me
UN: Food to entertain me
CH: Food made me feel safe and loved
CB: Food to numb the pain
UA: Food to calm me when I was confused
TH: Food made me forget a skinned knee

EB: All these past comfort and habits and memories
SE: I was taught this habit of eating for everything
UE: I want to let them go
UN: The habit
CH: The habit of reaching for food
CB: Unconsciously
UA: Consciously
TH: It never really worked

EB: I’m still haunted by the past
SE: Food just was the band aide
UE: The pain is still there
UN: I want to let the habit of going to food go
CH: I choose to grow in awareness and integrate my lessons
CB: I want and choose to start feeling the pain and disappointment of the past
UA: I choose to start to let it all go along with the habit of reaching for food
TH: I chose to change and be happy and healthy

Breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth- ahhhh

CB: Mind, body, soul and spirit---no more old food habits

When the limiting thoughts come back tap on the UE and say or think: “I am committed to a happy and healthy life NOW”


Have a great weekend!
