Stress and Weight Gain

Ever wonder why we crave cakes, pies, or mac and cheese when we are stressed?  The human body is a unique system of energy and matter.  And every system of energy has a band of vibrational frequency.  When we are excessively stressed we vibrate at a lower band of frequency.  This is why we gravitate toward foods that have lower vibrations...and more often than not these foods tends to be processed foods high in sugar and saturated fats.  To make matters worse, when we are stressed our metabolism also slows down because the excess stress signals our body to go into a famine-mode of conservation and storage.

When the stress is manageable, we maintain our naturally high vibrational state...and our naturally high metabolism.  The foods that we gravitate towards also tend to be high vibrational foods, like vegetable, fruits, fish.  Not only do we feel less hungry when we are stress-free, our bodies also do not go into a famine-mode.  Removing stress solves the biggest 2 hurdles that all dieters face: how to get rid of the cravings while not retaining the excess calories.
