When you don't want to be where you are, you create suffering for yourself. Change happens through acceptance, kindness and relaxation--not resistance, not warfare, not fights.

We start eating, watch television, surf the Internet, or go shopping and buy something. That gives us a rush of feeling, some adrenaline and excitement.

Real change happens bit by bit. It takes great effort to become effortless at anything. There are no quick fixes.

Come back to yourself. Return to the voice of your body. Trust that much.

You are lovable, you are loving; your choices about food will reflect that, if you give yourself a chance.

How you eat is how you live.

Healing is about being awake. Being broken and whole at the same time.
