Most of us would agree that in order to have a change in our eating habits, we must first have a change in our minds! Yet, even knowing this, many of us still struggle to make the commitment to renewing our minds on a regular basis. On today's episode of the Taste for Truth Podcast (links below), I coach Tonya through identifying many of the lies that keep us from renewing.  What We Discussed on the Podcast Identifying possible stressors in our lives that would cause us to emotionally eat How sometimes it's better to renew about emotions (or problems) we face in the day quickly to keep them from becoming really big emotions How to be proactive in truth journaling Why truth journaling is such a powerful tool for realignment The idea that making a goal that makes your life easier (like truth journaling) is a strategic way to approach change Some tips for having a really effective truth-journaling session (also found in Say Goodbye to Emotional Eating) 7 Lies That Keep Us from Renewing It's not going to work. I don't feel like doing it, so I shouldn't do it. Truth journaling isn't a fun way to relax, so I shouldn't do it. It takes too long. If I do it, it will make me not want to eat. (And I want to eat.) I'm too bad to go before God. I've messed up so God doesn't love me.

I invite you to subscribe to my YouTube channel as I plan to put up some videos about emotional eating in the next few months. I also want to challenge you to make a renewing commitment for the summer... If you take a moment 2-3 times throughout your day to renew your mind whether by using one of the resources listed above, or simply by truth journaling, I have a very strong feeling that you will find it easier and easier to follow your food boundaries this summer!
