Hi David
I don't like to leave things with a confusion of other stuff is the cause of a problem. I like Muriel Chen's book because she gives simple processes to handle the symptoms that appear and the one's that i have tried do work. For overeating then it might be: 1 look for those reasons why i over eat. E.g. Want mothers love and attention and that always came with a bottle or Like the taste, temperature, smell, texture of particular foods On finding these reasons why i overeat then acknowledge them and let them go. (As-is them) 2. Substitute another activity e.g. When i feel the urge to eat something that is not on the weight reduction diet then go take a walk around the block or park or for a mile. (Don't act on the undesired postulate) 3 do set up a weight reduction diet that specifies what i will eat, how much i will eat and when i will eat it and use #2 to stick to it.(make it simple to do the right thing) 4. Set targets for the weight reduction and when i achieve them change the diet to a maintenance diet which has more variety and calories.(at some point the weight reduction must end) 5. Spend some time daily thinking about the unhealthy results of being overweight thus making the postulate to not eat more important to me than the postulate to eat. So there is a program that can handle overeating or the overweight condition. It could be used to handle any unwanted condition. This program is TROM or Scientology like in that it involves 1. Look at the original undesired postulate and the emotional charge that has made it compulsive and in looking it over and recognizing what is there it As-ises at least in part so reducing the compulsiveness of the activity. 2. Recognizing that i have a compulsive activity i decide not to act on it and the effective way to do that is to substitute another activity that opposes the compulsive activity so for eating i substitute exercise which burns the calories that eating would have added. 3. Oppose my postulate to eat by thinking about the unhealthy outcomes of overeating and the unhappy social outcomes that girls wont think i am handsome etc. this increases the importance of not eating so i will stop eating. The way to stop doing a compulsive action is to : As-is the original undesired postulate No creation by not continuing to act on the undesired postulate Oppose the undesired postulate so it is ineffective. So as far as i know those are the only ways to change my postulate to eat into one of only eat a healthy amount. Of course any undesired postulate could be substituted here and the action modified as needed to be effective at making the change. I continue to feel that TROM is an effective way to change my mind. If this is not so then why continue to work at learning and applying TROM.
