Coming to Terms With Your Food

I must say that the 10/20/07 Washington DC workshop CDs are full of some amazing segments! I will link to it once they add it to their website.

One of the segments that caught my attention was about a woman who had heard that no food is bad for you if you come into alignment with it before eating it. She decided that she liked this and would give it a try. She was disappointed by the fact that the cookies where making her clothing feel tighter even though she was definitely appreciating every morsel.

She was confused as to why it “wasn’t working” for her. Abraham went on to say that food and your body image are one of the long term vibrations that are more difficult to bring into alignment. Ultimately you can’t get away from either thing (food or body) so they are always there to help you focus, in an upstream or a downstream fashion depending on how you are choosing to focus.

We are bombarded by news, books and people saying that XYZ is bad for you at every turn. It is hard not to hear all of this and to have it not leave an imprint on what you believe about things. Abraham says that you can eat anything you like and not suffer ill effects (weight gain, dis-ease in your body etc) but only if you are in alignment with it first.

They went on to tell us how to actually do that!

For every hour, for every minute, you spend eating, we would like you to spend equal or double lining up energy about food. Just for a little while. In other words, say:

“I’m going to eat for the next 25 minutes, or I am going to eat for the next 15 minutes, but before I spend 15 minutes eating, I’m going to spend 15 minutes lining up energy about body, weight, health, food … just, just, dabbling into your vision. Just thinking about your vision. Just projecting thoughts about who you are. Just getting into alignment. Trying to get a glimpse, and here’s the way we would approach it:

I’m going to do my best to see me, in my body, through the eyes of source.

So, seeing your body though the eyes of source:

Source loves your body.
Source loves the cells of your body.
Source loves the flow of blood and oxygen through your body.
Source loves the detail of your body.

In other words, what an extraordinary creature you are.

And as you tap into the feeling that source has about your body, you can begin to feel… are any of you getting a feeling of it here? You begin to feel a sort of energy moving through your body, a sort of cellular attention to your body. Can you feel that?

That kind of alignment prepares you for what you are going to eat. You see, you’re getting the energy moving first. You’re on the right track. You’re soothing out the resistance. You’re shifting your beliefs. You’re queuing yourself up for alignment. You’re queuing yourself up for inspiration. And what you choose, even from the menu, is going to be influenced by this alignment, you see. You get that? The work of creation is mental vibrational not action but the food you eat is action. The process of eating is action.
