food and emotions

[Guest guest]

Klara,

It's great you're exploring this again for yourself and

troubleshooting how you can self develop.

I realize that reading a book might not be the solution for everyone,

so thanks for considering it. The reason I love that book is b/c it

focuses on women's special, unique, innate intuition that we have been

talked out of (nothing about how we " should " look, but rather about

the emotional aspects of food in a person's life). When I read that

book, my entire mind was changed and I was able to be a lot gentler

with myself.

I can really relate to your feelings. When living in Japan, I was

eating and drinking (a lot) at night too, and had to really work to

refocus my mind and emotions to be more mindful. Remembering the

stories told in the book has been and continues to be helpful in my

life.

I'm sure you'll be able to work it all out.

, thank you for the graph and book idea. But as I may have

mentioned often, Order is not one of my strong points - I'm working on

it - one of the reasons I am attracted to mb is because I work on

intuition and flexibility rather than make lists. Perhaps I am not

such a believer as I thought I was, part of me does recognize food

affects moods, etc, but part of me says that's too simple and lots of

other factors involved - and bigger part of me is just too lazy to get

that orderly, and just happy to have anything in the mb realm to eat -

tho do try to follow basic mb grain/little bean/vegetables.
