All of us at one time or another have experienced the 'quiet desperation' of not enough money, and maybe even the panic and fear around not having enough money. It is very similar to the fear of 'gaining even more weight'. If you suffer from both overweight and poverty, then this indeed is a very difficult cross to bear. How on earth can we heal, overcome, grow out and away from such demeaning circumstances that we often feel we have no control over?
No matter how hard we try, and what methods we try, the situation improves little, or not at all, or has even gotten worse.
I feel globally this is what we are facing - How to deal with the issue of excess weight on our body and the issue of lack of finances not being something to push us into work we loathe.
As I have mentioned in previous blogs, creativity otherwise known as work you love is an essential part of getting free from addiction and staying free from addiction, and it starts with being able to handle the fears of dealing with questions such as - How do I provide for myself and my family? How do I get into work I love? How can I make the work I hate be more tolerable? How can I navigate a way to leave this work I hate? How can I navigate a way into the work I love? How can I deal with, this one aspect of work, that I dislike so I can hang on in there for a few more months to save for that training course I want?
I love the Hay House Radio Show - 'Messages From Margaret' - in it, Margaret often gives her callers affirmations that start with the phrase - Why is it so easy for me....?
For Example: Why is it so easy for me to bring in a large financial income from work I love? Why is it so easy for me to deal with that difficult person? Why is it so easy for me to find and keep work that I love? Why is it so easy for me..... Fill in your own thoughts to do with what you are struggling with right now in your life. This is yet another tool that helps us cease turning to food when full.

About Me
- True Slimness
- I was a compulsive eater all my teenage years, finally able to give up the obsession with food, size and shape, through learning how my emotions were the root cause of my binges. I became aware that when I craved to 'eat when full' there was some emotional stuff 'eating at me!' In practising the art of pinpointing and resolving my, previously unresolved, emotional stuff, I was able to conquer not only compulsive eating but also bulimia. I currently run workshops, and give one to one counselling (both over the phone and in person) on how to lose weight permanently by looking at what is going on in your mind and heart, and how to live the life you long to live - the life for which, eating when full, is a poor substitute. www.trueslimness.co.uk
