Managing our eating can be hard because it is something that we must do. If we have a problem with cigarettes or alcohol, we can exclude them from our lives. But we have to eat!
In this episode I talk with Brittany Watkins, the creator of “Skinny Genes,” about using EFT to heal emotional eating and banish food cravings. She also shares a great tapping tool which you can use right now to help reduce the amount of food you are eating.

February 3, 2013 at 3:43 amI thought that the Skinny Genes podcast was really useful. I tried all the 3 sections of it and useful material came up for me to tap on.
Then I suddenly thought I would try the first idea on my other fattening habit – sitting on the sofa watching TV a lot. I remembered back to when this turned from something I did most evenings to a habit where I come home and only feel alright once I’m sitting on the sofa with the TV on.
The habit first set in as I guessed that my marriage was in trouble. It was like the sofa/TV formula gave me a sense of security as things deteriorated.
I took Brittany’s idea of figuring out what the feeling was – in this case a sense of coziness
and security – and then sending that good feeling with lots of love to the people involved.
In this case, I sent love and warm security back to my former self, that young wife sitting there after the kids had gone to bed. I also sent the same love and security back to the husband back then who preferred to come home late because the marriage wasn’t meeting his needs. I sent them love as a couple back then.
It may be a fanciful notion to send love to people who no longer exist. Each has moved on to another life now. However it felt very warm to do so. I felt like I was sending love to who we each might have been and what we really wanted but couldn’t manage.
Will that help me to be less married to my sofa and TV? It feels like it already but I may have to re-visit it a few times to feel safe about getting new habits.
