Self Love the hardest of the loves, when one knows all there is to know~ every cruddy thought or fear that has ever crossed the neural nextwork..How is loving oneself 100% possible? Be CAREFUL of aiming for perfection...it is not in the cards except in this sense~ You are 100% perfectly you and God made you as the perfect you God resides in you....Waiting, loving giving, patiently, always waiting, until you listen..or are even willing to go inside and listen....Oh then I can love myself, tears well up in my eyes as I realize how beautiful I am...I am perfectkly me and perfect in all ways

Sat Sangeet Kaur shared something incredibly important.

Most people don't think they have it in them to do what she did. And most
of us who went through something like that had to do it alone for the most
part because we were creating a new way to handle our problems. Now there
are more people thinking along the same lines.

For instance:
Do not think about fixing a problem or a disease or an addiction, instead
think about where you'd like to be and support that which your soul is
inviting you to be.

Not only is it gentler but it also gives you something in the end !

That's the path to discover the soul's desire Sat Sangeet was talking
about as opposed to the option our culture suggests along the lines of:
"How to be thin again?" At the same time one needs to find the strength
and courage to stop giving energy to the fear, the addiction, the disease.
The Catholic priests who performed exorcisms already knew what to do: They
would recite prayers and focus only on God and whenever the "evil
manifestions" (whatever they were) appeared they would ignore them and
keep their focus on God through the prayers. Sat Sangeet's experience
sitting in a ball on her couch while experiencing the temptations of
eating are not so far from the experience of "evil temptations". I wonder
what "mantras" you kept coming back to Sat Sangeet in order to ignore the
cries for food.

We each have to do that in some ways in our life. People nowadays don't
like to talk about Satan and the devil and such... but they work very well
to express the feelings that we're experiencing in such situations.

In the end it is about learning self-love.

I prefer to focus on the soul's need so a meditation to stop addictions
maybe useful but a new supportive practice must be created to replace the
addiction otherwise we find ourself empty and exhausted.

So my suggestion is to combine a meditation to stop addictive behavior
with a meditation on self-love until one finds one's true desires that are
being avoided by the addictive behavior.
