It would be so much easier to give up food addictions if we could just replace our stomachs with a nice little nuclear reactor that only had to be recharged once every 20 years...<BR/><BR/>Food is always around -- and you always have to eat.<BR/><BR/>And I wonder how much of my own weight problem is caused by not moving around enough and getting sufficient exercise rather than not eating well.....Theresa Colemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12134175277230355640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25030905.post-34399285694502142622008-01-21T21:05:00.000-06:002008-01-21T21:05:00.000-06:00Dropping my shoulders and breathing deeply has mad...Dropping my shoulders and breathing deeply has made a huge difference in my stress level. I have to be careful about letting my body build up stress that affects my attitude and vice versa. <BR/><BR/>As for breathing and your parishioner, one of my CPE supervisors talked about using the word expire to describe dying. We are given life through inspiration - God's life giving breath. We we expire, we are breathed back to God.<BR/>Blessings.mid-life rookiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07477633857058924514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25030905.post-28699869526034934962008-01-19T12:15:00.000-06:002008-01-19T12:15:00.000-06:00Of course the reason that food issues are not as e...Of course the reason that food issues are not as easy as other addictions (nicotine) is that you can quit smoking altogether (which I have done) but you can't quit eating altogether. <BR/><BR/>Sneaky!<BR/><BR/>Deep breathing is a very hard thing for me to remember, and so important!!Mary Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02970052534402740820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25030905.post-42939753131677857932008-01-17T18:43:00.000-06:002008-01-17T18:43:00.000-06:00remembering to breathe is a good idea.

For most of my adult life I lived in LA, and found myself taking shallow breaths to minimize the intake of the toxins which gave me headaches. <BR/><BR/>Love the clean air here that I can take in in deep breaths!Rev SShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14661507940053055640noreply@blogger.com
