KristyLynn 0 Posted August 5, 2008 hey guys, i just got this idea for a means of "careful intake"... and i was wondering if anyone had any idea of the psychology behind it. remember back in school when you teacher had you learn to spell words by writing them over and over? and when you write, you are programming yourself...when you read, you are programming yourself. kinda like the "daily journals" - food and the gratitude journal...reinforcing, right? well, what if someone had a problem with .. a sweet tooth, or eating too much, and you want to have your mind over matter, just so that you are ok from the "root" of your desires.. what if you wrote "i have no desire for Cookies... cake.. diet coke.. lol" ? would that help? :cool2: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michee 2 Posted August 5, 2008 The idea is not to mention the unmentionables, instead to replace the unwanted thought with a wanted thought. something like this: "I desire healthy, nutritious foods that nourish my body" Not sure if you are religious but the affirmation that I use is: Thank you God for a healthy strong slim body IMHO affirmations do work Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
