Santa Clara Meditation Personal Growth – What are the best ways to lose weight?
Lucy L. / Business Owner
I struggled with weight gain ever since I gave birth to my first child. After my daughter was born, I was so overwhelmed with taking care of her that I did not have the opportunity to take care of myself. On top of that because she was my first child, I was constantly worried about how I could support her to make sure she has a bright future and great life. Thinking back and reflecting I was able to realize that I was busy with my mind about greed , and attachment to my daughter. Those thoughts gave me so much stress that I started to binge eat every time to try and escape my thoughts. I gained about 30 pounds after giving birth, but could not stop binge eating due to all my thoughts and stress. I became so depressed that my body weight and image had gone to the point that it did but no matter what I did I still could not stop over eating. I was not happy at all, and I lost all my self esteem. That is when i found this meditation.
After starting this meditation, I learned that all those thoughts are just the human mind which can be eliminated and then I could be free from those unnecessary thoughts. I diligently discarded my human mind because those minds made me feel burdened, stressed, and depressed. To the point where I could not control my eating habits. After discarding my mind, I was able to confirm that those mind do not exist within me, so I felt so light and truly happy that I found the way to overcome my hardships. Not only was I able to control my eating habits, I also was able to lose my weight because I was no longer attached to the negative thoughts. I also gained my self confidence back. After throwing away those negative thoughts, I do not get stuck in my mind anymore and I always have a positive attitude. I realized that I do not need to worry about my kids’ life or future. I now see that I do not need to eat unnecessary food. I am the healthiest and happiest I have ever been. Check out the video below for how I overcame my weight!
