Why Are we Overeating?

The basis of compulsive eating is emotional and people really need to learn to listen to their hungers. It’s important for them to eat when they’re hungry, to stop when they’ve had enough, and to deal with the emotional conflicts they express by eating.

Although most of us are afraid that if we don’t have a step-by-step program to tell us what, when, and how much to eat, we will never make any changes, the most important element in change is self-trust. The willingness to listen to the voice that wants to care for us, not destroy us.

If you have been following programs that tell you what and how much to eat, it may be overwhelming to be told that if you listen to your body, it will guide you in making healthy choices. The Eating Guidelines are just that — guidelines, not rules with which to punish yourself — they are suggestions that can be useful when making a commitment to be conscious when you eat.

Eating Guidelines

Eat when you are hungry.
Eat sitting down in a calm environment. This does not include the car.
Eat without distractions. Distractions include radio, television, newspapers, books, intense or anxiety-producing conversations, and music.
Eat only what you want.
Eat until you are satisfied.
Eat (with the intention of being) in full view of others.
Eat with enjoyment, pleasure, and gusto.

Beating Stress With Nutrition

For most of us, stress and food go hand-in-hand. Food can give us the feelings of power, control and satisfaction that we need in stressful situations. It’s no surprise that when our stress levels go up our resistance to ‘comfort’ foods goes down.

This isn’t always a bad thing — our favorite foods actually can reduce our stress levels. But moderation is key.

Giving your body the nutrition it needs is a positive step you can take every day toward combating stress. With the correct nutrition, you are better prepared to face the challenges of the day.

Adrenaline is produced during times of intense stress. That gives you a burst of energy, but your blood-sugar level drops after the crisis is past. Sustaining food is needed to replenish it. Certain foods increase the physical stress on your body by making digestion more difficult, or by denying the brain essential nutrients. Stress itself can cause bad digestion. Drinks can have just as great an effect — caffeine and alcohol both put a considerable strain on the body.

With a sensible diet it’s possible to reduce the effects of stress, avoid some common problems, and protect your health.

- Alok Tholiya I can do that as I normally do not get triggered due to external factors but when I want to ( Thanks to Osho) . But those who get angry and violent are in the short madness and can not follow above dictum as they r not in senses and r controlled by their suppressed emotions which can be moh.maya , rag , dvesh etc . Those full of frustration can not . First they have to understand that not many things/ situations/ people r in our control. Then they have to understand that it is not with in them to change situation, things,people. And finally they have to criticize themselves for doing sinful act as anger. But normally all sinful people justify their acts and as also anger. If one justifies his anger then he can never control anger and one day ir will backfire but no one can help such people.

Alok Tholiya self employed [edit] [edit photo] [ Scorecard : 344]	1. If there r any irritants which u can remove then do so on priority. 2. If possible your own family must shift or make ur brothers family to shift and separate. 3. Only person who she trusts can convince her to go to mental heath experts.If any one with whom she is enimical tries then that will bounce back. 4. Make good friendship with her parents side someone. Win them. Slowly when they realize you mean and care for her well being they will cooperate. Presently they have heard her side and think u ( means ur side) r responsible for her sufferings and doubts will go on and they will never cooperate. 5. If she wants soem minor things which u 'll can afford then bet it without asking. 6. Remeber and celebrate her B'day etc ( find otherways to create bonding). 7. Wish her family on imp. events / occassions and keep rapport. 8. Most often some people do not change much ( genetic defect ) and you have to increase your bearing capacity to save marriage life and save you from laws. 9. Time will come she will change...Keep good books, music, pravachan, cd's etc as good company.
