Hi beauty,
I’ve just spent the week in California visiting with my “dreamy” in-laws.
If ever there was a family to marry into that was compatible with this “pleasure revolutionary,” I found the one, and you’ll see what I mean in this video.
Patricia Ellsberg, my mother-in-law, (or as we prefer to say mother-in-love) is not only on board with my philosophy, she has a whole arsenal of secrets on how to deal with cravings in a pleasurable way that she’s teaching me!
Always eager to learn and share it with you, she and I made a video teaching you a simple technique that will teach you how to *change your state* so that you genuinely *feel* better, without the help of food. Click on the video below for this free training.
In the pleasurable approach to slimming, we go a step deeper than demonizing food or cravings to see the “positive intention” lurking behind the desire to raid the fridge–because there always is one.
When you’re craving food when you know you’re not hungry, in the words of Geneen Roth, “you’re always hungry for something.” In this video you’ll learn form my Mama-in-law, how to truly feed that deeper hunger that no amount of food can never satisfy. (Trust me, over a 10 year period of my life, I overate a LOT of food personally “researching” this topic. No amount of eating ever made me feel better for long.)
So here you have it, how to stop your cravings by feeding your heart. Here’s the reference that Patricia shared in the video, where she learned this technique– The Heart Math Institute
Thanks for watching and leave me a comment if you are willing to give this technique, that you can use anywhere anytime, a real go in your own life.
With love,
xo Jena
P.S. Is my Pleasure Camp NYC event on your radar? It’s an exclusive event for 30 women at the Jena Wellness Center, a.k.a. The Pleasure Campus, happening on Nov 12 & 13, 2011. Because the foundation of my philosophy is reinventing your relationship with your body, there’s something extremely powerful about learning in person, with our bodies all in the same room, and that’s why I’ve created this event.

Wonderful Jena (and Patricia). Thank you.

Often times I already do this exercise before falling asleep at night. I had no idea it could help with food cravings. Love the idea of starting my day with this as well. Thank you.

Thanks Jena for sharing this video. I’m going to definitely give this technique of 3 deep breaths and imagination a try next time I head to the refrigerator or to my snack pantry!

Loved hearing you at Omega this summer and am enjoying your information. I have mentioned you to lots of folks at my bed and breakfast. If you are anywhere near Nashville September 18 and 19th we are having the annual Tennessee Bed and Breakfast Innkeepers Association meeting…I could get you on the program! Could give you a free night at Carriage Lane Inn in Murphreesboro…I think you would love our group and it could lead to more fun and wonder for you and us! My number is 865-640-9550. Love what you do! Janice

I love your style! The demo of you and your “mother-in-love” was beautiful. I’ve started implementing this technique in my own life and I feel more appreciative of myself, talents and clearer on what I want to share with the world. It truly works! And if feeling is not believing, it is also evidence based. I’ve started implementing the technique with my clients too.
In health & pleasure,
Lola
