Ok, so I don't know about you but I have a tough time with this one! I use and abuse my body and in turn it gets pretty angry with me. So in an effort to NOT be at war with my physical self, I am making peace with my mental self.
I have been learning to calm my mind so my body wants to eat less out of stress and comfort and more for nutrition and well being. Well, and of course enjoyment. I enjoy food but I am also coming to the understanding that life is about choices. I have to be consciously aware of the ones I am making regarding my eating habits if I want to change them.
The more at ease I am in my mental state the easier it is to make good food choices. I have great family and friends who I am grateful for. Being grateful perpetuates the calm mental state which helps me to not over eat. Wow! Why didn't I discover this sooner!!!!???
So then my healthy body and my healthy mind keep the cycle going. :-)
