Hungry for Intimacy.
When your mind and heart are truly open abundance will flow to you effortlessly and easily.
Question:
Hi Deepak, I am really enjoying your inspiration and guidance about What Are You Hungry For? I overeat deliberately and then purge. Sometimes it is more habitual, and lately I realise what I hungry for is human touch and intimate connection. How do I fulfil such hunger when that relies on having a fulfilling relationship with another? I have been single for a long time.. I also wonder if craving human touch and intimacy is an unhealthy attachment to another circumstance outside oneself? Thanks in advance!
Response:
The desire for human touch and intimacy is natural and important. But eating food is not a replacement for that. Recognizing that is the critical step in gaining conscious control of your eating habits. Even if you are not in an intimate relationship right now, you can still use this impulse to connect with others to talk with family and friends. You can take a dance or yoga class, get a massage or take some action to relate to another person.
Love,
Deepak
