Connecting to your highest self

[Guest guest]

Hey gang,

I felt the need to share some recent progress I've made.

I've been battling with my weight for a very long time (seems like close to 10

years) and I have to say that IOWL has brought me closer than ever to

discovering the real root of my struggle.

is absolutely correct when she says something along the lines of

overeating isn't a problem it's a solution. I realized that overeating was what

I did at the end of the day when I felt this built-up inner tension that

resulted from my angst of not living to my full potential. I've been

procrastinating working on my master's thesis because the act of procrastination

protects me from a true test of my abilities. My highest self knows that I am

capable, smart, and worthy of all of the good things I've earned in life, but

unfortunately that's where the inner conflict comes in. I have not been able to

identify with my highest self because many years in my childhood I was told that

I was worthless, hopeless, and stupid.

Now, I'm trying as hard as I can to connect with my highest self. I did the

podcasts on self acceptance, and envisioned myself when I was a child, innocent

and pure and my ego vibrant in connection with my soul. How can I get back to

that connection, release this inner conflict, and stop the binge eating that is

burying it even deeper?

Best to you all,

Jenna
