Eating Part 3

 

EATING

Forgiving Myself 2

Belief: I Do Not Have Time 

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to believe that investigating how my body responds to my food choices require a lot of time and effort and since i have so many things to do it's justified

Commitment

When and as i see myself believing that investigating how my body responds to my food choices require a lot time and effort, I stop - i breathe

I realize that i can make time to assist myself  and the effort i put in there represent how much i care for myself so it is so worth it

I commit myself to make time to assist myself and put in the effort needed to investigate how my body works

Forgiving Myself 3

Justification

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to justify the excuse that i do not have time to learn about the effect of my food choices to my body

Commitment

When and as i see myself justifying the excuse that i do not have time to learn about the effect of my food choices to my body, i stop - i breathe.

I realize this is me not taking responsibility to correct myself - where i do not care about the body

I commit myself to take responsibility and realize natural learning is key

Forgiving Myself 4

Belief :I am the follower of my mother - who is my leader

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to believe my mother is my leader and that since she is my leader, it goes without saying, that i am her follower - so i should follow the way she prepares food because we follow the leader - forgetting that we can investigate the starting point of our parents in why they do what they do so we can understand them more, opening the door for correction

Commitment

When and as I see myself believing my mother is my leader and i am her follower, i stop - i breathe. 

I realize that i am seeing my mother as a person who raised me & who cooked me nice things - so i see her as more than me - rather than see her as an equal

I commit myself to see that all of us have the potential to be a leader, so leading whenever it is best to do that and let my mom lead when necessary

Forgiving Myself 5

Belief: I should not question  why they eat what they eat

I forgive myself that i have accepted and allowed myself to believe that because i am financially dependent on my mother and grandmother as a young kid that i should not question why they eat what they eat and why they prepare food the way they do  - because they will be angry and that will create a disagreement

When and as i see myself believing that I should not question why my mom & my grandmother eat what they eat, i stop - i breathe.

I realize i am fearful of the reaction they may have when asked - which is a projection of my own reaction when asked about why i eat what i eat

I commit myself to look at why i eat what i eat and see the commonsense behind it
