I pull a card every day for myself and like always it gives me understanding of what might be happening deep inside. Today is no different. And I imagine that it is very similar to many today. This card is about grief and loneliness and feeling like you are alone. But as I know, I am not alone and I will take time to make sure I understand that feeling inside. We are not in a life that should be run on autopilot. Unfortunately many people do and they end up in a lost situation. Taking moments of being quiet throughout the day and allowing yourself to query how you feel is extremely important.

You have been pulled away from the deep love you have inside for yourself. You have been taught that it is self-absorbing. You have been shown to search outward for love. And all you have gotten is lost

The Emotional Messages Of Food Crunchy foods: Anger. Crunchy foods help us act out our anger in a safe way, providing us an outlet so we don’t have to deal with the people or circumstances causing us to be angry. Salty foods: Fear. We crave salty foods because we want to have more spice in our lives but are too scared to take a risk.... High-gluten or wheat products: Comfort and safety. What’s more comforting than a warm cinnamon roll, mashed potatoes, or a bowl of pasta? Gluten products give us the comfort and safety we need in a non-threatening way. Has a cinnamon roll ever rejected you? Sugar: Excitement. When we can’t provide excitement for ourselves, sugar does it for us; if we’re unable to allow someone else to share joy with us, we can use sugar as a substitute playmate. Dairy (milk, ice cream, fatty cheese): Love. Our first food was milkmother’s milk. Rich, sugary, and/or fatty dairy products represent the unconditional love we receivedor were supposed to receiveduring infancy. We crave dairy products and foods when we desire unconditional love and protection and can’t find it in our everyday lives. Chocolate: Sexual drive. We’re all sensual, sexual beings. Eating chocolate is a safe way to feel sensual when our life lacks romance. It’s also a substitute for the sex and physical love we need but might be too frightened to obtain. Alcohol: Acceptance. If you don’t feel accepted for who you really are, or worse, if you were punished for being yourself when you were young, alcohol can provide the illusion of self-acceptance. It can also protect you from the perceived dangers of intimacy. The sugar in alcohol can serve as a substitute for excitement. The corn in alcohol can buffer feelings of failure, and grain alcohol can give us the warm feelings we might lack in our relationships. Corn: Success. We all want to be and to feel successful. Eating corn or corn products can not only momentarily imbue us with a sense of professional success, but also cushion us from deep-seated feelings of insecurity and failure. Fatty foods: Shame. Fatty foods hide our internal shame. They also cocoon us in a bubble of shame (fat) so we’re safe from other people. After all, letting someone in close might make us feel even worse about ourselves.
