Weight as a BufferYour body is always trying to protect you from the stresses of your life and sometimes uses fat as a buffer. Thousands of years ago, our bodies used fat to protect us from the cold. This was when we weren't living indoors in controlled environments and we needed our body to help keep us warm and safe. Because of this, our bodies are now hard-wired to use fat as a protection from certain harsh or extreme environments. The thing is, our bodies sometimes also use fat to protect us from a harsh mental and emotional world. You see, our bodies don't know the difference between our mental world and our physical world, and if we are having mental stress, our bodies think we are in some sort of physical danger and will do something to protect us. Jason, who called into last week's show, has become aware of how his body is helping him hide from a world he doesn't believe is safe. It is almost as if he is hiding behind a layer of fat. The great thing is that Jason realizes this. He is now focusing his attention on the visualizations we talked about last week, to convey to his body that he doesn't need the weight to protect him. When he is able to do that, the weight will come off easily and effortlessly. Jason will call back in about four weeks time to report back on his progress. This was Jason's particular issue. There are many different reasons why your body would hold onto weight to protect you. The reasons can be mental, physical or emotional. You can read about them in Chapter 2 of The Gabriel Method, or call into the Jon Gabriel Show tomorrow and talk to me about your issues so that we can figure out how to get your body to stop using weight as a form of protection and solve your weight problems once and for all. Until next time, Jon Gabriel
