We all have different “parts” in our psyches, minds, and souls. Think of each part as a singer on American Idol, competing for the “spotlight” in our lives. Our goal is to:

• identify

our parts. 

In her brilliant book Rezoom: The Powerful Reframe to End the Crash-And-Burn Cycle of Food Addiction, author Susan Pierce Thompson outlines 6 Parts than can sabotage our highest self:

• Indulgers

“The Food Indulger parts are there to soothe us when we feel hurt, rejected, or stressed.”

Here are the Indulger Archetypes or “flavors”:

Loving Parent: “You’ve had a hard day… you deserve a reward… “

Seductive Rationizer: “... just this once… a little more won’t matter… tomorrow we’ll start over… “

Rebel: “You can’t tell me what to do!”

Oblivionator/Binger: “You really need to check out… eat this… drink this… “

Impulsive Child: “I want what I want right now!”

I invite you to consider these questions:

• When do you notice indulging to avoid feeling your painful emotions?
