How what you believe about yourself and your identity can shape your actions. You will fail Being in the present, work on the now. Not on the past. That is there, it will show its self up. But its in the past. Facts from narrative. Separate the story Someone always does something to us Stop playing the victim. What is the real narrative? – we usually have images in our mind that are better than th...

Be willing to feel You need to be willing to feel You can’t be happy if you are stuck in the future or the past. People think they are stuck right now but that because they aren’t living in the moment. _____________________________ People have history behind them of it already Women – body issues – how does that feed into how they steer their eating patterns.

WHAT is your body actually trying to tell you...

Just a quickie. Too much gold to even summarize in words
