This weight loss journey has reminded me about my tendency to day dream and practice escapism. When something is going on I don't like or don't feel comfortable with I go somewhere else in my head.I have done this so much that I do it automatically now.
Escaping in my mind was necessary at some points in my life as a survivor of sexual abuse, verbal abuse and isolation. But, it has caused me to stay in a constant fog when I need to be present and aware.
When I am in the fog I can be like a mindless zombie and end up in the kitchen mindlessly eating for no reason at all.
When I fighting the fog by taking control of my life and being present I make choices that are in better alignment with my goals and higher self.
When I let the fog control me I feel like I am letting my abusers win.
SOLUTION - Stay in control and present
AFFIRMATION - I am calm, I am present, I am focused.
