I was just going to start a thread to see if there were any others in here, but now I see I don't have to!
I too was wondering if anyone was using any pagan based ideas to help them with their weight loss. I need specifics here! I have always been solitary myself, and damn I guess it's been almost 7 years now for me. I haven't done a lot with it lately, because I just don't feel very connected in the place that I live. I know that sounds weird, but where I lived before I could easily go outside and be alone and feel it, now I'm in a city environment and it just isn't the same.
"I often thought some of them were being weird for the sake of trying to be weird in order to draw attention to themselves and weren't really on the path."
someone said that. and I couldn't agree more. I have had this problem with making pagan friends, and honestly I haven't got any now. I'm not trying to be judgemental and I know I am not better a witch than any other person, but I feel like some of these people I've met have watched the movie "The Craft" like 5 times, and decided they were pagan! So annoying.
Someone asked about resources... I think some good resources are
www.witchvox.com and
www.witchware.com for some great items and essays. Umm... I'm thinking and I can't come up with any others. I have read a lot of books and it seems like even most of the books are geared toward 13 year old girls.
Anyway, I am eager to hear anyone's ideas on weightloss pagan style. The only think I could find in any of my books was to envision some symbol over your plate of food before you eat. And I thought it was kinda stupid... something like
---><--- or something like that.
Anyway, enough rambling, I'm just excited to see some pagans on the board.
***on a side note, one should not be ******ed. one should read the entire thread of messeges before posting... i realize now that in my excitement to post, i skipped not one, but two pages worth of postings. please ignore me *LOL* ***
