I am so grateful for all of you for reading this ezine. It is a vehicle for healing. Most of my life I struggled with food and my body. Now I can finally say that I feel free with my food and my body. I love sharing the ways I learned to feel this way with you. Remembering the process through writing keeps the practices in the forefront of my mind so when I get into tough food/body situations I can remember. I love the stories you email me about your own struggles and triumphs. I know that it's making a difference and that feels awesome. Thank you for continuing to read and the gaining the courage to explore this process in your own life. Please know it helps the entire planet when together we raise this consciousness.

I am so grateful for our clients at FWH. The local ones in the bay area and the others who are all across the USA and even in Europe. Your boldness and courage is tremendous. I see the changes in your health and your life and I am so completely excited for you. I know it's not always easy but you keep showing up. I want all of you to thrive in your lives. The more you thrive the more others around you can feel their joy of being alive. Keep up the good work.

I am grateful for my relationship with my husband for being so supportive as I continue to explore my vision of FWH and support others to find the food freedom they crave. I am grateful for his patience when I re-track into old habits. I appreciate our fights because I grow.
I appreciate that we share so many of the same interests and we can play together and explore the world.

I am grateful for my friends. Without them I would not be who I am today. They are there for me when I need them; from the emotional ups and downs to our play and goofy time. The call me on my "stuff" and keep me honest and in integrity. I love the authenticity of our relationships. Thank you.

I am grateful for my cravings. I thank my body for telling me what I need and for the ability to listen when it talks to me. Thank you.

These are just some of the things I feel grateful for in this moment. Was it easy to write? Part of the time. It pulls the heart strings.

The practice of appreciation and being grateful has not been easy for me. My brain was trained to think about what's not going well, where I can improve, what's wrong with the situation. Being right was better than being grateful for the lessons I was learning. I was stingy. A reminisce of anorexia.

When we learn to be grateful and appreciate what is we don't struggle as much. It actually feeds you and others. Even with the hard stuff (like body image, cravings for food we think we "shouldn't eat" and tough relationships)

Stop reading right now and think of one thing you are grateful for.

_________________________ (what is it?)

Tonight or sometime this weekend make a list of some of the things you are grateful for. If there is an opportunity share it with the thing or person you are grateful for try sharing.

Notice how it makes you feel to name it.
Notice how you feel to share it.

And if you want to get good at this practice each night before you go to bed think or write down at least 1 thing you are grateful for.

Sending you all a big primary food hug,

Darshana
