I am not a fitness expert. I am an unfitness expert. I think the problem with some fitness experts is that they don't always know exactly what the person they are assisting is experiencing. One can only have true compassion for an experience they have endured. I truly believe that I have the understanding and compassion for every experience imaginable with unfitness. I have experienced them all. In fact, my life has been one big field study in understanding how anyone who deals with weight issues and self-esteem fails to cope. Anyone who advises simply to eat less and exercise more does not know the gray area of frustration and self-loathing that goes into the inability to do just that. Just keep your mouth closed, right? No. It is not that easy. There are layer upon layer of reasons why people don't just lose weight. Sure, guilt and shame are a part of that, but what is causing the shame goes undetected. Until now. The exercises and tapping series that are provided in this book strip off layers of primal, genetic and emotional issues in regard to overeating. For example, the binge is sometimes the primal urge to hunt and gather. That was such a simpler time in our development that we attempt to conjure it back up by collecting the food, which may create more satisfaction than eating it. Or, eating at large gatherings is so pleasant because in treacherous times, eating with a large group literally signified peace. Because a large meal wouldn't be happening if there was any hint of danger. For some people, being thin triggers past lives when they had starved to death. On some level, eating is literally a matter of life and death. Mindless eating is, many times, passing the food through their physical body to a version of themselves that is suffering. When dieticians tell you to practice mindful eating, this is the process they are asking you to interrupt. It does work. It also works to pour love and nurturing into every aspect of you on every level. When you do this, the gorging no longer is necessary to try to save yourself. Your new state of self-love permeates every aspect of you. The eating frenzy and the cycle of shame is no longer necessary. This book addresses all the above issues and more. It creates such a deep understanding of our own process in regard to food and our physicality that self-compassion and care are inevitable. The tapping sequences work deeper than any other self-monitoring system works, like affirmations or psyching one's self out in an attempt to bypass the mind's permission. The brain has been monitoring every attempt to change your current health status. It is satisfied with you now or else you would be different. This book changes the mindset so that the physicality follows instead of trying to change the physicality, by working against the mindsets already in play. So I am not a fitness expert. I have not even solved this issue for myself. Perhaps I am still doing research. But so many people around me, who are using my techniques, have reached their ideal weight and vigor without a fraction of the angst they have wasted on the pursuit thus far. In fact, reaching an ideal fitness goal was a byproduct of working on a more empowered emotional and mental state. Reaching a long-ago forgotten fitness goal became a natural process of releasing all the layers of issues that the exercises I provide here eliminate. This is my intention for every one of you reading this book and for the whole world. We have all been at the mercy of an issue that does not empower us. It is time for you to meet the depth of your awesomeness. You will appreciate yourself at a deeper level and change in such a profound way through using the exercises in this book. Be sure to do them all. Because the ones that the mind tells you don't pertain to you, this same mind "dysregulated" your physicality in the first place.
