Dear Patelinthewind:

My idea behind this exercise is to get in touch with the original, most desired (and by now forgotten) feel-good experience that you longed for as a child; an experience that has been poorly substituted by overeating. Once you… sort of refresh this original feel-good experience in your mind, over time, whenever you feel compelled to overeat, you can purposefully invite the original feel-good experience to your mind and be content with it, no longer desiring to overeat.
