Peace Talk Episode 220: Q&A "I'm better but I've had this problem for years...how can I make it stop?"

Many people suffering from compulsive behaviors wish desperately they could stop. They HAVE stopped sometimes, for even fairly long periods, only to "go back" to what they once did--all over again.  It seems like mental drudgery to be on the cycle over and over again, thinking about the same things over and over again.  Like returning to the same area in the wilderness if you were lost--thinking you're finding your way out, and here you are at a familiar old point again where you were two days ago. So discouraging. What part of you is not affected by this merry-go-round?

She has a special love and specific programs for those suffering from eating issues including disordered eating (disordered thinking) of all kinds--having suffered from this behavior and thought/feeling process herself and finding an unshakable peace within around eating, food, health and behaviors with eating.  As Byron Katie offers us (founder of The Work); when we believe what we think, it creates unnecessary suffering. When we question what we think, we feel lighter and less serious about what is. We even begin to laugh. We notice who we really are is peaceful already, a human being living life as best we can--learning, growing, loving.  To receive notice of Eating Peace programs, videos and vlog posts, visit www.workwithgrace.com/eating-peace and join the mailing list.
