Great topic! I myself am guilty of "emotional eating" I just did it the other day. My significant other who has the metabolism to eat whatever he wants and look like an athlete, bought Sweets and I've been under stress recovering from a very minor surgery but I can't work-out or do heavy lifting I'm limited to just walking at the moment so the high vibe walk is like perfect timing to read. But because I can't do the certain activities I was regularly doing has messed with my emotions and mindset so I dipped into my boyfriends cookies and doughnuts which was a total set back. Anyway, thank you for this topic. I love your newsletters as they always hit me on something I'm currently going through. Please never stop! God bless 🙌

Hey Candice,

Thank you for sharing your experience! I had a similar journey after a spinal injury ended my football career, and I found that the High Vibe Walk really did the trick until I recovered. I also realized that my desire to lift very heavy weights (a way to express my deep emotions) was actually a band-aid for not speaking up for myself and avoiding emotional suppression from the start. I'm looking forward to creating more newsletters and hope they continue to support you on your journey!

Nate my friend you have inspired me in so many ways I continue to follow your work and I have learned so much about pain and childhood trauma I myself grew up in poverty and use to be in survival mode my entire adolescence years. You are the light that a lot of people like myself seek all our lives and for that I’m so grateful to know your story. You are my motivation.

Thank you for the very important work you do.

It’s incredible of you to open up and share your journey. I felt emotional reading this. You are such a light and great soul. I’m so happy you listened to your intuition and believed in yourself. You’re changing so many lives! I used to struggle with emotional eating due to overwhelm. I was living in a home as the oldest of 4 with a little brother with autism and it was full of love, but also chaotic af. I noticed it got really bad when I became an autistic support teacher and came home from my stressful job to more stress. Food & tv were also my escape. I’m so grateful for the internet bc like Paul Chek impacted you, Organic Olivia impacted me. I’m still learning more helpful tips from your blogs. They’re really incredible and have so much heart in them. I hope you’re doing well. Take care Nate!!!!!
