Guest guest Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 WOW, this is so true it is scary... I too have often felt so intuitive, almost psychic, or feeling other people's feelings... I realized this very early in life... Keep sharing everyone, as I for one am listening... Thanks everyone for sharing..

I have engaged in disordered eating for most of my life (I'm 59 and just new to IE) and I have finally connected with an explanation of why I may do this. The author Anita ston, PhD, found that in her clinical work with women with eating issues she noticed that these women have a particular trait in common - they are highly intuitive - able to pick up on subtleties in conversations or tensions, to notice patterns in behaviour or inconsistencies between what others said and what they did. Although intuition can be a gift, when interpretations of what is perceived are distorted by self doubt and low self esteem....well, this just means trouble and results in a plethora of uncomfortable self destructive feelings. And many of us know what to do when we feel those....eat, eat, eat! Of course the author goes on to address this problem. And man oh man is it ever a problem for me. I've always felt that I was very intuitive - short of psychic - but able to know what's been going on before being told and I can now see what a problem this has been for me. I have difficulty with relationships of any kind and therefore get very hurt and lonely and I eat, eat, eat.The author uses myths and stories to make her points which I'm not crazy about but the text between the "stories" is bang on for me.Hope somebody else can benefit from this way of looking at things, as I have.Bonnie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 I have this book on my book list and will someday read it. I too am a cancer and very sesitive and intuitive. But I think as a young girl I was poo-pooed for my intuition and sestitivities and learned to push aside and not acknowledge this part of myself. It has just been within the last few years, after working with some life coaches that I have re-learned to trust my intuition and each time it shows me how just right on it is and each time it shows me that, it gets stronger and stronger. Because I am now trusting this part of myself I think makes me stronger and more confident. This is a little off topic, but if you like this sort of thing and believe in psychic abilities a really cool new show on A & E is Psychic Kids. I love how they work with young people to trust and become less fearful and intuned with their abilities. Alana > > I have that book and could totally relate to a lot of the info too. I too pick up on things that other people don't....I can tell when people are hiding something. And can sometimes sense what's going to happen before it does. I get hurt very easily too. I'm just curious...what's your zodiac sign? I'm a Cancer...the moon is my planet! I find reading stuff about zodiac signs so fascinating because they are often bang on for me. > >  > > > > > ________________________________ > > To: IntuitiveEating_Support > Sent: Tue, January 26, 2010 7:21:42 PM > Subject: Eating in the Light of the Moon > >  > Love, love, love this book.
