You’ve probably heard of the Law of Attraction. This universal law has been recognized by successful individuals for centuries and is reaching millions of people through the viral-like spread of the movie “The Secret.”
Essentially, the Law of Attraction states that like attracts like. In other words, where your attention goes, your energy flows. You attract into your life whatever you are thinking and feeling. You create your own circumstances by the choices you make—and those choices are fueled by your thoughts. Therefore, your thoughts are the most powerful tools you have for creating the life you want.
So how do you apply the Law of Attraction to one of the most challenging problems many people face: managing your weight?
First, recognize that significant change entails far more than just “positive thinking.” It involves replacing old ineffective thoughts about eating and exercise with new powerful thoughts that lead to remarkable changes in behavior. Over the next several days, I want to share some simple but powerful food for thought to transform the way you manage your weight.
Food for Thought: I have the instinctive ability to manage my weight effortlessly.
Life wasn’t meant to be a struggle - and neither was fueling your body. So forget restriction and deprivation. Instead, trust your body to let you know when and how much to eat by relearning to use hunger and satiety to guide your eating - just as you did when you were a young child.
Just ask yourself, “Am I hungry?” whenever you feel like eating. While this may seem too simple, the simplicity is what makes it so effective - and makes it a great place to start changing your mindset. Just don’t confuse simple with easy; eating on autopilot can be a challenging habit to break so be consistent and patient with yourself.
