Marianne Williamson: A Course in Weight Loss

I always knew there was a connection between spirituality and weight loss and Marianne Williamson is now teaching it with clarity and passion.

Marianne Williamson is a New York Times best-selling author, and she is brilliantly bringing this knowledge to you in 21 spiritual lessons that will inspire you  to surrender your excess weight forever.

She addresses the spiritual, emotional, and psychological elements involved in what Marianne refers to as “conscious weight loss.”

Whether you are a food addict or a compulsive eater, or if you have loved ones who are, you will treasure this book.  I think it would be a perfect Holiday gift  for someone you really care about.

A Course in Weight Loss: 21 Spiritual Lessons for Surrendering Your Weight Forever will take you to the root causes of your addiction to food and brings back the natural intelligence both of the mind and of the body.  A lesson at the time, you will be guided to integrate body, mind and spirit into the truth that as you let go of fear, love, the true essence of who you are, brings in sanity, healing, and real beauty.

This is just one of the pearls you will receive from Marianne:

“The spiritual theme of my book is this: the realization that while an addictive impulse can trump your better knowing and conscious will, the power of God will trump your addiction. While we often intellectually understand this principle, it can be difficult to actually apply to our lives. And that is why I wrote this book. It provides simple lessons in restoring your mind to its highest, most loving functioning. And in the presence of that love, all dysfunction disappears.”

Does Size Matter?

It’s an age-old question, isn’t it? Marketers use it to sell magazines to women, and pills and pumps to men. It’s endlessly debated on talk shows, and people flood call-ins with their opinion. Do not fall for the scams and the noise!

I think penis size matters only when your self-esteem is low, when you actually don’t know how to turn your partner on with your personality, and your approach to lovemaking is rigid and fearful, instead of playful and seductive. Read more

The Gift of Self-Respect

It’s Christmas time—a time when most people are opening their pocket books and their hearts to give presents to the people they love. It’s heartwarming. Even I, who believe that a present should be given any time you feel so inclined and not at a specific date, feel the spirit of giving more than usual. Today, I noticed myself humming tunes of love songs and then even inventing words to them that include the people I love.

However, for many people festivities like Christmas bring up lots of emotions, and for lovers who are on the verge of break-up, festivities usually are very stressful and breakups can be precipitated by expectations that the lover does not fulfill.

“Why buy an expensive gift for a girlfriend I don’t respect?” a young man asked me the other day in a counseling session. As he described her, she sounded like someone no one would like to spend his life with her. Read more

Effortless Orgasms Are Possible

I recently started working with a great looking woman who first came in my door so stressed that she could not sit still without constantly re-arranging her body. That first day, her eyes were speedily moving around in hypervigilance. She could not finish one sentence in the rush to get to the next.

What she said came from a rehearsed circular thinking in her head. She did not allow herself time to feel. She told me she hated herself and especially her body. She grew up with a self-righteous alcoholic father and a Catholic mother who did NOT allow herself or her children to feel feelings, especially those of pleasure.

She complained that she had a dark secret: she was 49 years old and she had never had an orgasm! All her friends were telling her of their great lovemaking, ending in earthshaking orgasms. . . Whether they were telling her the truth or not, she believed them and guessed there was something wrong with her.

Talking to Jane did not seem the best approach, because her rigid belief that there was something wrong with her would just filter out my words. I had to try something more direct. Read more

Positive Body Image – for Love and Great Sex

It is unfortunate that so many women listen to the media advertisements about what looks good; implying that if you spend money on changing something about your body, only then you will be successful and loved.

It is a trap many women fall into if they have not developed a sense of inner value, or depth. A strong sense of self-esteem is the key to a positive body image. Read more
