Most interesting is that my friend has a much better acceptance and seems to be losing some, if not all, of the symptoms that led to the original diagnosis. The jury’s still out over time.
Following Your Leader Within leads to a healthy lifestyle
Often, Orion accuses me of eating to escape rather than eating for nutrition and enjoyment. Or drinking alcohol to escape rather than enjoy.
When I ask my intuition whether I should eat something that my taste buds would love, he, (Orion), often says, “No.” And sometimes surprisingly “Yes.”
Prior to engaging Orion in losing weight, I would usually seek advice from outside “experts,” and force myself into a hated cycle of dieting.
Most of us have played the game: Diet, lose weight, feel good about it, only to have the pendulum swing to the opposite behavior of eating, gaining weight, and feeling bad about it.
The path to intuition-driven health is one of asking
for health-related answers — what to eat and when, when and how to exercise, when to stop what is
going on and take a break, and what time to go to bed.
