What are your thoughts about last night's (2/7) class?
I've been reading a book that some may find helpful --Secrets, lies, betrayals : how the body holds the secrets of a life, and how to unlock them / by Maggie Scarf.
It's as if she were explaining my life to me in a way I can understand for the first time. -- Janine
Well I experimented w/ pleasurable dining that did not include eating in front of an electronical device.
Yesterday for lunch, I sat out on my side steps eating a nice salad in the sunshine. At times I closed my eyes and listened to the birds sing and the dogs barking in the background. A smile came to my face and thought this is a pleasant experience and that I should do this more often. However to my surprise I soon found myself feeling lonely. Could it be I wanted to share this pleasant experience w/ another person, was I longing for conversation? I now realize what eating in front of the tv or computer does.... numbs me from feeling. Very interesing.

I really enjoyed this class. I have a level of trust in this group that I haven't had in a while.
