Party with the present.


Parties can be scary because they dredge up emotional memories. Parties can be fun, and opportunities to re-invent your self, when you stay in the present.

Fear is about the past. Intuition is about the present. During the holiday season, it's tempting to dwell in the emotional past. Use self-respect to avoid the temptation.

Fear is emotional sabotage that leads to self defeating choices. It is an emotional bully that makes you not trust your senses, your experience, or your heart! The result is you feel out of sync with your self, gorge at a party, or privately eat a loaf of bread.

You can stay in the present when you get that out of sync feeling, by using your senses to connect with what's real. Be honest with your self about what is important to you, and trust your intuition to stay clear about priorities. 

When you connect with your intuition, there is nothing to doubt. It is as real as your eyes reading this. When you are at a party, don't re-live your past, instead, connect with self-respect to protect and be good to who you are. Every effort you make, to be the best you can be, is important, and admirable. :)

Being honest with your self is what makes intuitive eating possible. It's honest to recognize fear is an emotion that has nothing to do with your physical appetite.

When you respect your self, you protect your self. Intuitive eating is a commitment to respect your self. Honesty is giving your self the chance to succeed and maintain, not gain weight. 

Stay true to you and be in sync with your body. Party with the present. The past is history.
