MY SECRET WEAPON
to Mediocrity and over eating…

I

WORDS: FIONA ROBERTSON

am on the most fantastic and magical discovery,
unraveling mysteries that have lain hidden for way too
long. What am I talking about? Well, my emotions. I
was brought up possibly much the same as you were,
with the belief that to show your emotions was wrong it
was a sign of weakness, but what I have been happily
discovering is that they are my and everyone’s inner
strength. IF and this is a big IF, we can really feel them,
allow ourselves to sit with them and acknowledge them
fully.
If you have been cleaning up
your diet and have done a few
detoxes from time to time, or
in fact you are eating a clean
and 80% RAW diet you will have
certainly been exposed to
some of your own raw emotions
and feelings rising up and not
known what on earth to do
with them.
Maybe you have wondered
how on earth you are meant to
keep to this wonderful healthy
way of eating that makes
you feel so light and positive,
when from time to time yo u
feel compelled to go back to
and even crave eating heavy
foods that make you feel full,
heavy and sluggish and go
against everything you now
truly believe in.
I am here to tell you that this
normal and what I deal with
daily for myself and now guide
my clients through the myriad
of feelings that are surfacing,

looking for acknowledgement.
I did not even know what some
of my emotions were as I had
spent nearly 50 years blocking
them from rising up and listening
to them.
By listening to your choice of
words that describe the events
and situations in your months,
weeks or days. I am able to
clarify for you what is going on.
Further more by doing with me a
15 minute revolutionary exercise
that I thankfully discovered
via a Mama Gena and her
wonderful womanly arts boot
camp, (which luckily happens
to apply to men as well) We
can clear out and go much
deeper into these feelings,
where we can acknowledge
them with no judgments or
stories attached. Then we are
able to see and feel our real
feelings and discover for ourself
what these cravings are really
all about.
