We all experience set backs. So often we make choices that we do not really want to make but just can't help ourselves. Luckily, we do have one who can help...God! On today's episode, discover how to gain control over your negative food choices, let go of your confusion around food and dieting and  receive God's perfect blessings around finally feeling relaxed and normal with food.

The pain and hurt that we hold onto from our past prevents us from moving forward. We can't be inline with Christ as long as we continue to let our past rule our present. God meets us in the present moment and tells us in 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.

Freedom comes from faith and faith comes from surrendering to God and trusting that we are a new creation in Christ. Today, I share how you can let go of the false lies  you have chosen to believe about yourself, to be released from the bondage of your past and how to fight off the enemy who seeks to kill and destroy in order to receive healing from food and body image issues. You can have freedom! You deserve to live the life God has waiting for you! 

To struggle with weight and body image does not make you a freak or unsuccessful. It makes you human. On todays podcast I talk bout the natural temptation to be discontent with your body and how to trust that Jesus is the world's ultimate fashion designer. Your beauty exceeds any worldly standard. Stay focused on God and your self worth will be energized to it's full occupation again. You were born for beauty. Do not be afraid to exhibit that truth.

Feel overwhelmed, tired, beaten down....maybe even on the verge of a nervous breakdown with your weight and your food issues? Have obsessive thoughts of the scale, calories, exercise stolen your peace and your freedom to live a joy-filled life? Do you keep cycling round and round the same negative patterns with no control to break free? Today I talk about how dieting steals our peace, separates us from our inner selves, the Holy Spirit and the living God. By pointing to scripture from the Psalms and Romans, I help you to see that there is a light at the end of the tunnel.  I will guide you to getting out of the crazy world of body hatred and weight obsession through practical, biblical application. Get ready to start your walk of freedom from the food funk! 

It is not up to us to decide when and how we are healed of our food issues. However, a better focus on Jesus will keep us strong and bring us more peace through the process.

Ever feel overwhelmed by what to eat? Does anxiety and desperation attach itself to even the thought of food? In today's episode I share how to get calm, cool and relaxed around eating again in a way that will have you trusting God more and falling into old, negative patterns less.

Every day we are bombarded with images and messages that our weight is our worth. The world tells us that how we eat signals whether we are a "good" or "bad" person. Whether we are someone who cares about our "health" or are too "lazy" to give a darn.  Though we seek to be free from these lies and images and walk with God on a path towards healing, we struggle. We fail ourselves and in the process we lose our faith, our trust that God will heal our obsession with what we eat and how we look.  In today's episode I focus on Romans 12:2, I teach how to not conform to the beauty standards of the world and ways you can go deeper in your trust with God surrounding your struggles so that you may experience more of His "good", "pleasing" and "perfect" will in your life.

In order to heal and recover from food obsession and body shame,  we must be in touch with our souls. It is with our soul that the Holy Spirit strengthens and renews us. In order to receive that strength, our focus has to shift from our outward appearance to the inward. Today, I share how to get your eyes off your belly and onto the bounty of your divine inner light so that you may receive the fullness that awaits you from the Holy Spirit that resides within you.

Negative patterns and false beliefs about ourselves often have us making choices that tear us down rather then lift us up spiritually. These choices come from our flesh and are not driven from the light of the Spirit. They often are made in order to help us hide or feel accepted by the world. In the realm of God's holiness, they only keep us further from our growth. Romans reminds us that when we look to the Spirit we act in accordance with it.  On today's episode, I share  how to use a practical approach to staying in touch with the Spirit. I discuss how to recognize natural/human desires vs. spiritual ones surrounding food and weight and how to empower one's self with the ability to avoid sinful pitfalls that blindside. 

It was not until I finally started bringing God into every part of my life that I started to see real changes in how I felt about food and my body. But how did I do that?

Today's show I share how I made God my BFF. I also give sure fire and simple tips for how you can get more God into your busy day. Plus, I give my testimony on how one weekend away with my hubby changed my whole perspective on how to view life from a larger body.
