Kids are involved and see their moms working out because it is fun and they are outside with their friends, not because they need to burn off 100 more calories. It warms my heart when I see my three year old "exercising" in a fun way to be just like Mommy. We don't even own a scale.<br /><br />I hope it works.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03902589811626771148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6281799228334396136.post-68437468797680281912009-04-14T10:54:00.000-07:002009-04-14T10:54:00.000-07:00What a beautiful spot!

Before...Hi Anne,<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your excellent question! Before I used the technique I currently use to treat food cravings, I would encourage dietary changes to help with chocolate cravings, like increasing magnesium, etc. <BR/><BR/>Now, I find that when someone identifies the 'root cause' of their chocolate cravings during a session, the cravings just go away. I've noticed that the physiological and psychological seem to be rolled into one. And truly, for my treatments, it doesn't matter which one is fueling the cravings.<BR/><BR/>When the person goes through the session, the cause of the craving is identified and resolved. Sometimes, there will be memories or insights, and these lead to being free of the craving.<BR/><BR/>I hope this makes sense. It is hard to explain unless you have experienced it, but is a wonderful thing to facilitate.The Food Craving Solutionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06220321270747901991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6281799228334396136.post-85392409382535373332009-01-01T13:04:00.000-08:002009-01-01T13:04:00.000-08:00Do you think people who crave chocolate are experi...Do you think people who crave chocolate are experiencing a physiological or psychological response?Tranquil Placeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01585618649017726981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6281799228334396136.post-47887436663593416312009-01-01T09:45:00.000-08:002009-01-01T09:45:00.000-08:00Hi Gerald, Thanks for your comment!

If they're not affecting you mentally, physically or emotionally, then they are not a problem.<BR/><BR/>If someone has diabetes and craves sweets, then that could be a problem for him/her. If a woman has occasional cravings for chocolate, and is able to enjoy it and stop at a reasonable amount, that's probably not a problem for her.
