I remember (hmmmm...it's been more than 5 years, I'm pretty sure) when you first introduced these practices to me via this book. Mind-altering! Life changing! And I'm still evolving in my use of them. Over the years, I have been sucked back into dieting mentality, swimming in the sea of our culture and I always come back here to what you taught me. I find truth and power in these practices. And my favorite part of what you've done with your transformation of them is your affirming language around creating intent. Removing words like "stop" and "only" and adding "savor" (love this one!) makes it so much more vivid and empowering about where to put my attention. Love, Maggie Moira,

I have been an intuitive eater for 4 years ad the way that I used journals was to write positive affirmations - like: I am now a normal eater I now eat what I want when I want I am free of all eating disorders And I don't know whether it was that specifically, but it worked. I used a lot of creative visualization as well - seeing myself as an intuitive eater Nina Hi Nona,

I'm in! The 20th was my 57th birthday and I went and bought myself a nice red covered big new journal. My idea with this was to "call myself to account" every day in a very softly structured way. The idea was to sit down at the end of each day and write whatever kind of narative that seemed to be called for, to include what I got accomplished and perhaps what I wanted to accomplish the next day. Or not. I also started to keep track of what I have been eating in a little pocket notebook. It seems serindipitous that I have bought my brand new shiny journal and finally followed you from facebook to here. Hi Moira! I’m in!
