Assignment

Personal energy work begins with monitoring your energy and discovering your energizers and drains. Write out a list of energizers and one of drains, and include whatever gives or depletes your energy. When you feel low, pick an energizer or two from the list rather than reaching for something to munch. Be aware of the energy drains so you're not blindsided by them.

Assess your energy right now using a 0-10 scale with 10 being high. If you are below a 7 do one or more of the quick-energy pick-me-ups described above or one of the energizers from your own list. Reassess your energy level. Still too low? Continue trying other energizers until your energy is a 7 or higher and you feel enlivened. Get in the habit of monitoring your energy level and taking steps to build it before it dips too low. The lower your energy, the easier it is to succumb to emotional eating; the higher your energy, the easier it is to just eat for physical hunger.

Practice sending energy. Once you are comfortable with it, you can use it any time you are in a difficult situation or with challenging people, rather than having the people or situation push you into compulsive eating behaviors. You can send energy to yourself, to another person, or to a part of your own body, and you'll feel energized just doing it.
