Like most of us who have to fight with weight, my original concern was to concentrate on the food.
If only the Lebellkreis were the problem, most people would stay in EBT training long enough to master the regulation of the emotions and to wire a circuit of about two to three months.
Treatment of obesity is more complex than that, which is why the EBT program lasts 7 to 15 months.
Admittedly, the circuits are difficult to delete, as described in another blog, but one of the problems is that there is more than one of these challenging cables (“survival circuits”). As soon as one is activated, an “emotional reflex circle” leads to another and another due to the state-specific memory (wires in the same voltage level activation).
Although the act of excessive food can lead to a greater memory, many of these wires are often involved in the overall floors of the overall circuit, in which an impressive binge-eating episode can contain. Often the Lebenskreis is not the strongest! What follows is an example of one of these Amongs.
Charlotte’s Circuit Rampage
For Charlotte, whose task as a project manager was stressful in a technology company, four criteria contributed to their typical episodes of excessive food. It all started with their relationship, which gives others power and should look for validation. She was brought together with her boss and the three people who had reported to her. As a result, their merger circle fired several times during the day.
This kept this in chronic stress, which promoted the activation of several other circuits. One was a mood that was in an extreme mood. Most of the day was high on a wrong one, whereby Dopamin’s flooding was activated by expecting the approval of others. If you just made everything perfectly and delighted everyone, she would be safe. This was an illusion because the mood itself caused a biochemical dysregulation and the actual physiological danger.
However, there was another circuit into the game, which your body, the drive, to assess your body, another stressor. Self -image and body image are intertwined in the brain circuit, so that every verbal attack that she led was injured. With all the mergers, the wrong heights and the body judgment, she had an emotional reflex on the most days, even if this reality did not feel like “stressed”.
Whip after a day of the circuit. . .
When she came home after a day of the “Circuit whip”, Charlotte starved and emphasized that her base of the feed took over responsibility and had eaten much more than her body needed, and then tidy up with a few sweets. Of course she needed all the food because of the lightning-fast chemical cascade of all four circuit and one 5 ..
She needed the sweets to activate another wire what her mood of the shame was. Although it was completely illogical (the wires are in the emotional brain), their drive insisted to reduce excessive food. This last reward was the strongest because it was familiar. She had been ashamed early in life, and although shame did not feel “good”, the brain finds the familiar even more rewarding than what is objectively pleasant.
Re -wire for freedom and peace of mind
In order to wire her brain for weight loss, she would have to re -wire all five of these circuits. It may take six months, but as soon as she wired it, she has something that is even more important than permanent weight loss. She will have freedom and peace of mind.
