The only good thing I personally can say about dieting is that it works up a wonderful appetite. Tried plenty of diets over the years. None of them were successful, in fact every time I went on a new eating plan I ended up fatter.
Could be that what causes us to put on excess weight and then be unable to take it off is not just what we’re eating, but also the STRESS in our life. Not just physical stress but emotional as well.Â
Keeping that in mind, here’s what the biofeedback scan reported this week . Remember, this is a stress scan of our energy field/unconscious mind. We get to learn what could be REALLY stressing us, whether we like it or not. There’s alot of information lurking in our unconscious mind, and biofeedback can inform us about it.
First, we have the stress of being “unaware”. Think about it. How can you correct something if you don’t even know its a problem?
For example, did you know that everytime you eat something with HFCS (high fructose corn syrup) the liver has no clue what to do with it, so automatically stores it in our fat?
The more HFCS, MSG, etc we consume (and this stuff is in virtually all processed food) the fatter we get, regardless of the calories. In other words, the less whole, organic food we eat, the more stress to our system from chemical toxicity. Processed carbs seem to be the biggest problem.
In fact our affirmation for the week is “I am resistant to toxicity. My body detoxes daily.”
The message is “Excess attachments can block perceptions”.
(Could this mean  we should stop stressing over weight? That maybe we’re too “attached” to what we look like? )
 We are also still learning to de-stress our brain chemistry, and this week the neurotransmitter GABA is showing the highest reactivity. Most of us in the Be Thin Within group now have the book “Younger Thinner You ” by Dr. Eric Braverman. In this book he gives further information on the subject of brain chemistry. He states that a fat cell is an aging cell, and educates us as to what foods and spices we can eat to balance all this out.
(Right now I’m drinking a cup of tea, which he suggests we should do after every meal- it’s a great source of antioxidents. Am I releasing some fat after I started this habit? Yes!)
As a group we are still working with unconquered anger, false illusions, and trauma.
Energetically, some of us feel hopeless despair in reference to weight.
We’re wanting to develop a sense of healthy priorities, strength, confidence.
There is stress related to PH, or acidity.
 You probably know that the American diet is highly acidic. If these acids were released into our system it could actually damage our organs. So, where does it go? The fat layer. Looking at it that way, fat is our friend. It holds all those nasty toxins and acids. Problem is, the accumulated fat is then a big source of stress.  But- and here’s the good news- release the toxins and balance the PH- and the fat goes too!
We registered a great deal of job stress this week. Ever put on alot of weight when work wasn’t going well?
Most stressed organ was the hypothalamus. However we also showed stress related to the thyroid, thymus, and parathyroid.
Most stressed emotion was passivity. Who’s pushing you around? When they do, or when the job is a problem, do you try to de-stress with food? That was the toughest habit for me to break, and I’m still not always successful.Â
Finally, this week the scan mentioned stress from thanatos. Thanatos is related to an unconscious instinct of self destruction. So here’s a thought- as we develop awareness of what we’re doing to our bodies with our eating habits, and yet refuse to change, is that an unconscious death wish?
Just a thought. Meanwhile, the biofeedback will send remote ”de-stressing” energy/frequency the rest of the week to hopefully balance all this out.
