Christmas Food Blues - NOT!
Welcome back!
Before I got that life is mental, good, and individual, the holidays were a pain in the ass for me. I lived in fear that everything I put into my mouth would end up on my body somewhere and it wouldn’t be a pretty sight when it happened. I am so glad that is no longer in my experience. I now know that the real purpose for food is for enjoyment. So when I eat something, I focus on the food, on the enjoyment that I am imbuing into the food, and I drop entirely any so-called weight-gain ideas.
Why? Because I know that what I think is what I get. I did this for just years and years until I made myself obese. It was ignorance and innocence that was behind my thoughts. I simply didn’t know any better. I’ll bet you’re thinking “Shoot! I do that too!” You don’t need to do that any more.
Hold on to this thought: Food can’t make anything happen to me. Food has no causative capabilities. It’s just food - an effect. But my mind CAN cause things by thinking them, so, this Christmas, I’m only going to eat what I enjoy and enjoy what I eat. And I’m not going to think “This will make me fat” because guess what? If I think it, it will!
I might not see you until after Christmas. I hope the joy of the season sprinkles all over your sweet self.
Love,
Pat
