Beyond food and body
A void within you
It doesn’t matter how wonderful an experience you enjoy through and in your body, when your soul is ready to come to the fore and you keep ignoring it and do not cultivate your inner life to partner up with your inner being, then you’re going to feel a void within you. A sense of unfulfillment, a constant dissatisfaction, a constant restlessness, not being at peace.
By eating right, by becoming a fitness champion, becoming the best partner to others in many senses, being able to create intimate relationships, loving and serving family or society, many can be totally content with their life, fulfilled, and happy. And that is beautiful and perfectly right.
But when your inner being is knocking on the door of your heart, mind, and body and prompting you to turn inward, to look inward too, it is beckoning you. Showing you, making you feel that there is more to life, that there is something beyond physical and material creation, and the satisfaction derived from them. Then you have to respond to that call, and if you don’t, if you negate it, if you deny it, if you ignore it, you will always feel that something is missing, something is not right.
So don’t be afraid of something that is not tangible. Life with capital L will not bother you with synchronicities or intuitive revelations, and this strange void in your heart if you are not ready. Life with capital L will let you thrive in the physical, through the physical, in the material, and that is fine until you are happy and you are not harming or destroying your environment or yourself in the pursuit of that happiness.
a life with a higher meaning
But when time is there for you and your inner being is ripe enough, there will be something that will remind you of something that you have forgotten, and that is that you are more than just the body. You are more than your thoughts; you have more than one fleeting human life; you are more than your current personality and identity. You are more than this luster, proudly shining or being crippled in this reflected light. You are higher, you are deeper, and the more. You have your very own light that wants to break through and shine through from the inside of this very being of yours, and live a life with a higher meaning.
the discomfort with life
Most of the clients I work with have issues with eating and food, or experience discomfort and great dissatisfaction with their day-to-day lives. They are looking for a change in their lifestyle, not because they are over-indulgent or doing something wrong. No. Some of them, in fact, are trying to do everything right and the best to their knowledge; they read a lot, and they try to implement, yet there is something "just not right" for them. There is something unfulfilled or something not in order in them, and they can't see the results of their efforts.
into a broader perspective
As, during our work together, we start looking at life and the details in life from different, wider angles, we open up new horizons. When we start putting things into a broader perspective, then the understanding of and relation to their very actions, choices, decisions, body, food, and eating begin to change and will get a different meaning and a different place in their life.
Then, more peace and joy begin to unfold and be revealed in their life. Things are falling into place. Less effort is needed, and the journey becomes enjoyable without achieving a fixed goal every single day.
With Love,
