A Look Inside Binge Behavior - Stress Connection

We tend towards binge behaviors when we are stressed. As you learn to become aware of binge behavior facets, you will have the opportunity to introduce new & healthy stress management techniques… Elizabeth Bohorquez, RN, C.Ht

Lynn: I am an emotional eater and have always had this problem. Stress and bingeing go hand in hand for me. Would I benefit from re-scripting my past bingeing experiences, and how many of them would I need to visit? I’m now 35 years old and can remember bingeing when I was 12. Should I go to the earliest recollection?

If you have early recollections do utilize them, of course making certain that you return as the qualified, non-judgmental and supportive adult, intuitively knowing what the child/teen needs and willing to graciously provide it. Sometimes it just a matter of meeting up with this part of you in your mind and sitting quietly, expressing those healing virtues already mentioned. Providing self-love, self-forgiveness, compassion and deep understanding can be sufficient to change the tides in the present.

It helps your past person to know that you are learning new powerful tools and your confidence is growing. You might read parts of this book to your past person, engaging their assistance in your work thereby bringing congruence to the issues at hand, your past and present working as a team towards the goal at hand. While it isn’t necessary to visit each and every experience, a powerful and healing visualization is to see many of your past persons with a history of addiction or bingeing, coming into the gardens and celebrating your new level of health and behavior modification. Be sure to present them with affirmation gifts, such as “I care for myself at the very highest levels. I AM.”
