Brandt Passalacqua“Cultivate a state of understanding that it is not your job to be perfect. It’s your job to be in a process that moves you more toward where you want to be. And if you do that, things will get much easier for you. You don’t actually have to get completely “better.” Or be “perfect.” If you have a very difficult relationship with food, it’s going to take some work. But it doesn’t have to be painstaking. If you think that you’re going to never have negative thoughts or emotions or behaviors around food again, that’s probably not true. What you want to do instead is to have those difficult thoughts, emotions, behaviors, rearing their ugly head less. The way to do that is to have other sets of thoughts and emotions in your space more.”
