How Happiness Dispels Comfort Eating

As I woke the other morning I was thinking about happiness. For most of my life I had been unhappily living in a daily struggle with my weight and size issues. Yet, not for one minute did I ever consider that happiness was a choice I could make, or that it was a major key to permanent weight loss. I lived, almost every day, with negative emotions such as fear, guilt, shame and loathing dominating my time from a conscious and subconscious position.

With every negative emotion and thought, comes a level of stress. The more we pile on the negativity as we fear food, hate our body and struggle with life the more our stress levels increase. And what happens when we are stressed? Yep - we reach out to food as a comforter! This is a truly vicious circle.

Such a negative cycle cannot be broken or our comfort eating stopped whilst we choose to use a 'Scarcity' mindset that demonises food and tells us we are 'Not good Enough'. The truth is that reality is ALWAYS kind because it is abundant with love if only we looked for it. But we hide it from ourselves by failing to make the choice of happiness.

Happiness IS your birthright. It is your choice what you fill your mind with and how you view every situation in your life. You see happiness is the by-product of self-loving actions and thoughts. By making a conscious effort every day to challenge your negative thoughts, replacing them with positive ones, your self loving actions will begin the process of bringing you the happiness you deserve, dispelling your comfort eating for ever.

Happiness is there for all to see even in the most stressful situations...

A touch, a smile a hug;

The caring support of others;

Experiencing the true beauty of the natural world;

In the way we love and care for our mind and body;

In the giving of ourselves to help and support others;

In our family and friendships.

The list is endless so start to make your own and bring more happiness into your life right now. All you need is to consider the things that feed your soul and lift your happiness levels.

Keep those happiness thoughts flowing!
