In this show we delve into a couple listener questions regarding the transition to a healthier dietary lifestyle. What do you with your carb/junk food “cravings”? The main task involves viewing your feelings and food choices as part of your psychology, and thus within your control. For one, it’s important to find alternatives that are both healthier and just as tasty as your not-so-healthy food choices. Second, we recommend a couple powerful psychological methods (nonviolent communication and sentence completion exercises) to reorient your way of dealing with food, which will help you come to better terms with your own emotions and choices.

Our new bonus program, Defeat Your Cheat Days, entails effectively dealing with psychological patterns and altering habits acquired since childhood for meeting your needs; and this entails developing compassion for your child-self and becoming your own best friend. The 5-day sentence completion program will help you acquire the self-knowledge and motivation needed for optimal functioning in this realm.

Thanks for the comment, Karen, and so sorry for the extended delay (wordpress notification malfunctioned). Indeed, parenting can be a major challenge. Fortunately, there are some really helpful resources. One is a book that I’m actually reading on my other podcast (complete liberty), titled “Unconditional Parenting: Moving From Rewards And Punishments To Love And Reason” by psychological researcher Alfie Kohn: http://www.unconditionalparenting.com/up/

I also highly recommend learning the process of nonviolent communication as devised by psychologist Marshall Rosenberg: http://cnvc.org . Another site with a wealth of resources concerning this is http://nvcworld.com

Ultimately, everyone’s needs can get met in the family, so that potential disagreements won’t become conflicts.

Let us know how it’s going, ok.
Best wishes,
W

I listened but have to say parenting is really hard! Are neither of you parents? Food can be a challenge with kids multiple times a day, and a point of conflict and arguements. What about some helpful input?
