Eating From My Soul

Just when I was putting out the intention to lose weight, and have a happy relationship to food and my body, a friend told me about a time she was in a workshop and the leader told them all to try eating from their soul.  Right away something with in me clicked.  I have learned from my church that our soul is our spirit and body combined, so this sounded perfect. 

That day I started asking my soul what it wanted when I went to eat, and I have never looked back.  Instantly I got an answer and have been doing it since.  What I noticed after doing this for even a week or so was I stopped being hungry.  I use to feel really hungry a lot.  My soul seems to know exactly what is perfect for me to eat from meal to meal, therefore I feel really fulfilled.  Eating this way has taken away all my cravings, or need to over eat, or compulsively eat.

  I now have a happy relationship to food because I totally enjoy everything I eat, and it is the perfect food for that moment.  I also have noticed that I don't seem to want to eat a lot of food through out the day anymore.   The things I am eating seem so perfect, I don't seem to have a need for much food or have a very big appetite anymore.  The last time I went grocery shopping I consulted my soul as I walked around and chose things.  Some of the things I was eating my soul doesn't want, and so some of my food choices have stayed the same and some have changed.  Of course the great news is, I am easily and quickly dropping all excess weight off my body.  I have never lost weight so easily and had it be so fun!!! 

Because this has been so perfect it occurred to me one day recently that I should transfer this into my whole life.  So not just eating from my soul, which is going beautifully, but living my whole life this way.  Everything from where I live (city and home) to what I do as a career, to my future husband (whoever that will be), to how I use my talents, how I dress everything.  My soul is really tapped into my deepest fulfillment and what makes me the most happy.  I am very happy to say that the church I belong to is totally in alignment with my soul.  It was my soul that kept me searching for the Truth and wouldn't let me settle for less than the Truth. 

I have started looking at all areas in my life to see how aligned everything is to my soul.  It is really fun to have these conversations with my soul and find out what it is I truly want and need.  It is very exciting to know that deep fulfillment and happiness is possible on every level, in every part of our lives. 

I now consult with my soul about everything in my life, listening to the answers, and giving myself what fulfills me deeply.  As I do this, I am living as my happiest self.
