Are You Feeding Your Feelings? (Emotional Eating)
This week they did a feature on Kris Carr and how your emotions effect your health.

Most of the time you might think you only eat when you are hungry however this is not always the case. We eat because it is a certain time of day, we eat because others are eating, we eat for social reasons, and what’s also very important to acknowledge is that we often also eat for emotional reasons.

The short term high that certain ‘comfort-foods’ give us can create a habit. They can also serve as a distraction to potentially suppress an underlying emotional issue. When you’re feeling bored, you are vulnerable to your mind wanting to bring up past emotions. So many people would quickly grab the television remote and some food to run away from these feelings and thoughts.

Kris Carr from ‘Hungry For Change’ knows this cycle extremely well. Emotional eating is what led her to an unhealthy start in life. She carried emotional demons with her for years and the knock on effect of these, she feels, was a major contribution to her illness. She has now started emotionally freeing herself and accepting herself with beautiful results.

I really think this is a fabuolous site, so take some time and check it out

Make all your relationship dreams come true…

Wendy Ladd — Sun, 15 Apr 2012 13:36:29 +0000

Thought I would share today the wonderful work and inspiration by Neale Donald Walsch. If you know the name then you have been blessed already by his book and site, if not, he is deffinitely someone you can be inspired by.

The thoughts posted below come from The Holy Experience, a full-length book that you may download for free at www.nealedonaldwalsch.com

The most powerful thing we can do when we form a romantic relationship with a significant other is to see them as ourselves. “And the two shall become one.” This is the essence of the Holy Experience.

The Holy Experience as it relates to your significant other is the forgetting of the Single Self through the enfolding of that Other into the Self as a part of the Self, as one with the Self, and identical to the Self. It is when there is no place where the Self ends and the Other begins. When there is absolutely no experience of separation, real or imagined.

In day-to-day relationship with your significant other, when something–anything–happens, you give that happening meaning. Just as you give everything in your life meaning. What meaning you give the events in your relationship depends on whether you are coming from your Past or your Present.

As I have made clear now several times, most people come from their Past. In fact, most people find it impossible not to. They make their decisions about what is going on in this moment in their relationship based on their prior thought.

Masters, on the other hand, make their decisions based on their future intention. Memory or intention. That is the choice. Always. When you come from your memory, you create one kind of experience of relationship with your significant other. When you come from your intention, you create another kind of experience altogether.

This coming from intention rather than from memory is the adult magic that can make all your relationship dreams come true. It is the shift from reaction to creation that makes all relationships feel brand new.

Just as you can recreate your self anew in every golden moment of now in the next grandest version of the greatest vision ever you held about Who You Are, so, too, can you recreate your relationship anew.

And if the person with whom you are in relationship truly is your significant other, this is what you will want to do in every golden moment of now. As it relates to your most intimate friend, this is the Holy Experience.

There are many wonderful words of inspiration on the site, so I encourage you to sign up for the newsletter.

Enjoy your day and make it fabulous in every way

Love Oneself

Love Oneself

Read a fabulous interview yesterday with the amazing Jennifer Lopez and she personally quoted “I have finally realized the key to making it work: “If you don’t love yourself, you can’t love anybody else. And I think as women we really forget that. All we want is to be happy, to feel secure, to feel understood,” “But you can’t look for somebody else to do that for you. You think about it. . . . Oh, yeah, of course I care about myself. Of course I have good self-esteem. But when you really take a good look, you are not treating yourself like someone who does. And when you let people treat you in a way that you don’t want to be treated, it’s not their fault. It’s yours.”

So 100% absolutely true.

Continue to be the fabulous you, love yourself, be grateful for who you are!

Cortisol and Stress

Wendy Ladd — Mon, 05 Mar 2012 14:21:18 +0000

I have been doing a lot of studying about the hormone Cortisol and how it reacts under Stress, and it seems no matter how much some people watch what they eat, how diligent they are, especially me, they still gain weight. Here is a hard core fact for you that I discovered and hope it makes you feel better

Cortisol is a main stress hormone and what it does is it stimulates our adrenal glands to engage us in pleasure-seeking behaviour, like eating high energy fat foods. We tend to crave more calories when our stress hormone is activated, that is why we crave french fries, chips, etc. In fact it really has little to do with our self controlled disciplined eating because Cortisol actually sends a signal to our brain to find and eat these high-fat foods. It serves as what I call a “safe” place.

As human beings we tend to feel guilty after we have consumed all these calories, passing judgment on ourselves and we shouldn’t as it really isn’t our fault. It’s our body’s way of asking us to relax. It is trying to create relaxation for us with the “safe” place by seeking out food to get us there.

I learned a few years ago about the body’s response to a state of stress which is known as Flight, Fight or Freeze. When our bodies are in a state of stress our digestive system shuts down. What happens is our blood flows to other areas of our bodies such as our arms, legs and brain so it can react fast to a stressful situation, taking the blood away from our midsection/digestive system.

I find for me personally that sometimes losing weight can be stressful and even gives me anxiety at some times. There is so much pressure put upon us by society to be the right image, shape, weight and look. If I am doing good its ok, but when I am not successful I get very down on myself and the process. It doesn’t happen as fast as I would like it to and I too often judge myself by the scale.

So what we need to learn to do when we are stressed is relax more. This will allow the blood to flow back to our midsections and digest the food and nutrients we have consumed. We truly are relaxed creatures at heart, and love pleasure and peace. We really only over eat when we are anxious or stressed. When we choose to eat when we are relaxed we actually have more control of what we eat and how much we eat. We also enjoy it in every way which we should. Eating fast and furious does in fact cause cortisol to be stimulated and we lose the feeling of peace, pleasure and also the enjoyment of the taste of the food.

So next time you find yourself under stress, take notice as to what you are eating, how you are eating it, and more so how you are feeling while eating it. Maybe stop and take a couple deep breaths, listen to some music, find a way to de stress before you continue. Eating should be a peaceful state, not a stressful one

After all…. we are what we eat

Be fabulous, fit & fantastic
enjoy your day

Beauty and Magic of Roses

Wendy Ladd — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 02:05:44 +0000

Today is Valentine’s Day and what a perfect day to celebrate with the one you love.

Florists are working double shifts today to make sure each and every flower is delivered in time wiith special cards and romantic words . The most popular given flower for this special occasion is the Rose. The rose is an absolutely amazing flower. Whatever its color the flower itself is a vision of absolute fragility and delicate grace. The rose is also an extraordinary flower in that it has so many shades, some natural, and some man made. Each and every colour has a meaning of its own.

I must say my two favourite colours are the red rose and the blue rose.

A single red rose signifies “I love you” and immediately says to, passion and true love.

A blue rose signifies mystery.”You are extraordinarily wonderful”, A truly wonderful personality,

There are so many colours and so many meanings that I am sure you have your own personal favourite too.

So whatever your favourite is, I hope you take time to stop and smell the roses. The beauty and depth of their fragrance will leave you almost breathless and wanting for more. I guess that’s why most people love roses.

I wish you a day full of love, and may you be blessed with a rose

Luv Wendy
