Cheers!

- Hi, regarding your yoga question, here were some thoughts I had. There is an idea that when you give a talk, to focus on just three points, anymore than that and the listeners mind starts to wonder.
That being said, yoga is about union, or relationships. An example would be body/mind, body/environment, etc. What we eat has an impact on our external and internal environment (psychological and physiological state)... meaning it effects our relationships as well as being a part of how we relate. The heart of Yoga is "mind control," which essentially boils down to awareness. Food controls your mind (literally there are chemical reactions that take place when you smell and eat your food), and once you are aware of what you are eating and the direct impact that has on you, the more free you become. This in turn is the aim of the asana practice, Mokshana.
Be well and good luck on your presentation.

Thank you so much for the comment, I relate to so much of what you said. Although for me, this distructive eating pattern has only been going for about four years now I still look back and think that that's an awfully long time to waste. I binged for the first time in over a month yesterday after recieving some frigtening news about a friend over the phone. It's a horrible feeling to not be over this. At this point I guess I just don't know where to turn. I want to tell a friend or a family member but I don't even know how to bring it up or how they would react so for now I'm just trying to get it under control on my own. Anyways, just wanted to say that I really appreciate you sharing a piece of yoru story with me. Good luck with everything and take care.

- Hi Jocelyne,
Sorry it's taken me so long to reply to your comment. I never intended to put you in uncomfortable position. I agree, talking about thes types of issues is far from easy. Talking about things that we've learned to keep such a deep dark secret for so many years is defintely new and can be difficult. I have too wondered if an obsession with staying raw can contribute to such types of eating disorders which is why I've lately tried taking a more relaxed approach to the whole thing. I don't buy cooked foods and I don't heat the food I make but if I do go out to eat or something then I don't obsess or feel guilty if I eat something that has been cooked. It's all about serving my body and I think eating a diet that's so high in raw food is a great fit. I hope you're raw journey is going well and that you know you have the group if you ever do feel like sharing something or getting some feedback would beneficial for you. Take care!

Victoria Moran said… - HI, Jocelyne -- Thanks for going to my site. Where in England are you? I lived in London after high school and it still feels like my "other home." ... I am looking at the pictures of your friends. Is it just my opinion or are raw fooders exceptionally more attractive than most people?

- Hi Jocelyne! I just wanted to send a (slightly generic) message to the ten of you who joined the raw body image group that I recently created. I really look forward to talking with all of you and really creating a community for support and guidance. The first thing I would like all of the members to do is to post a little “about me” under the thread I’ve started. This will be a little beyond your normal GI2MR profile and should let us all know a little more about the history of EDs in your life and what your biggest challenges and struggles have been and still are. I really think that will help us all to see each others’ perspectives and really set the foundation for having a strong community. Thanks for joining and I hope to hear from you soon!

with a manual camera I used a slow shutter speed (1/5) and kept my head moving side to side. i used Photoshop to get the contrast and color look.
thanks -- it makes me really enjoy being sick!
respect,yb.
Finally reconciled with my mother two years before she split the scene at the age of 95. Load off my mind.
She was tough, tough, tough, tough.
Jewish mother nagging shit, non-fucking-stop. Always fresh to her, always Hell to me.
Ha-Ha-Ha! Yah, womyn!! Glad ya said somethin
Ohh nice! Yea, they're addicting as hell. If it wasn't for the price I would look like the Berlin Wall by now.
Wow that's got to be tough. I think I would set myself on fire if I had to live with or near either one of my parents. I'm going to try to keep distance from them & keep a diary. Thank you for the support RGG
It hasn't faded any yet, but I've only heard of problems with some of the phosphorus inks and ours don't have any in. But who knows, the approved UV inks have only been out a few years and they're more expensive so not a lot of people take the opt...
Wow, I'd pay to see that

Yeah, he doesn't look like the healthiest 62 year old. Well, at least he seems to look healthy at a glance, but he looks a bit aged for 62, and he seemed to have a stiff jaw or something going on there.
And those doctors are the typical clueless ...
Summer saulting through the air is my favourite move. I sometimes do it mid-conversations when the person I'm talking to is dull.
Haha..love it!
In Europe, people don't have psychologists, I'm told, they have friends, get me? (I had a friend, she said talking made it worse, with her it sure did, for me anyways, was all we talked about, her issues. I just wanted to do her, had the chance to...
The Krishnamurti stuff seems right up my alley. Thanks for pointing it out.
Thank you AU. You read my mind, I love camomile tea! I'll try to slow things down & keep a diary.
Finn, will it fade over time like most white & pastel color inks?
Group tattoo, that's awesome. I like the camaraderie when someone with a misfit tattoo points to mine.
i have been in this situation myself personally a while ago,where i had sex in front of other people...its not something i would ever repeat...
i think Magikal mystery tours first reply covers my thoughts also :)
ahaha =]!
