Empathy Tip # 109 - Hasta La Vista, Baby (Goodbye) to "Bad" Habits

The Situation:
Ok, I overate today. To much of a "good thing". I want to better myself from this painful, emotional and physical experience of too much food in my stomach.

The Solution using our values:

I ask myself 3 questions before I execute an unhealthy strategy that I will pay for later. The strategies may be for drinking, overshopping, gambling, drugs, relationships, etc.. (example answers are for overeating strategy)

1: What needs was am I trying to meet by this unhealthy strategy?
        Calm, food, stimulation

2: What needs may not be met if I do this action?
        integrity, health, energy, consciousness

3: Are there other strategies I might I do to meet the needs in #1 that are healthier, emotionally and physically.
        Go to a healthier restaurant
        Ask myself, am I really hungry for physical or emotional sustenance.
        Meditate or walk around the block first....

Try this tip during the week and let me know if it works for you.
Hoping all your needs are met this week.

ooooo, eu deja de citeva luni ma stradui sa merg in conformitate cu ce aii scris mai sus, in ceea ce tine de refuzul la banala mincare, adica la restrukturarea alimentatiei totul e ok, dar cind e vorba de aplicat asa ceva la nivel moral/sufletesc, e cam bija, pina acum nimic succese.
