Easy Weight Loss from Janice Taylor, Life, Happiness & Weight Loss Coach, Author, Weight-Loss Artist<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Our Lady of Weight Loss<\/a> wants me to encourage you to think about taste, because \u201cTaste is No Small Thing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dig It<\/b>:\u00a0 Taste is always with us, ever present. Even when you detect \u201cno taste,\u201d there is a flavor in the non-eating mouth.<\/p>\n

Think About It<\/b>:\u00a0 Your mouth serves as a point of entry; it is a boundary between the \u201cinner\u201d and \u201couter\u201d worlds. Your mouth takes in air, energy (chi) and food.<\/p>\n

Consider the foods that you choose to put into your mouth. When you fill your physical mouth with unhealthy foods, too much food (or bad air for\u00a0 that matter),<\/i> it will\u2014to some degree, sometimes subtle, sometimes not\u2014block your energy and have a negative effect on your body; a negative effect on your energy and your life flow will be compromised.<\/p>\n

The right food will nourish and build cells and sustain you with energy.\u00a0 Slowing down to taste and chew your food actually helps the enzymes in your mouth\u2019s saliva to start the process of digesting carbohydrates and fats.<\/p>\n

Instead of, or better yet\u2014in addition to\u2014counting calories or points or carbs, or eliminating foods whose ingredients includes white \u201cstuff\u201d like sugar, unbleached flour, and\/or high fructose corn syrup, let\u2019s simply consider what type of \u2018energy\u2019 the food you are about to put into your sacred point of entry a.k.a. your mouth is going to provide and how it will effect your day BEFORE WE PUT IT IN OUR MOUTHS!\u00a0 (Yes, I\u2019m sort of yelling!)<\/i><\/p>\n

Surely, that would provide a way for you to begin to change your relationship with food.<\/p>\n

What do you think?\u00a0 What small changes are you about to put into action?\u00a0 How can you shift your reality? <\/b><\/p>\n
