0:00.0	Welcome to Thinner Piece and Menopause and Beyond. This is Dr. Deb Butler, Master Life and Weight Coach,
0:10.4	and as always, your coach. Today is episode number 93, and I am so excited. It's the new year,
0:20.0	and I want to help you get unstuck. And the reason I'm so
0:25.2	excited is because I've got new material that's really quite old. Stay tuned.
0:45.2	Hello, all my dear friends. How are you today? I'm going to repeat myself. I'm like a broken record. It's a beautiful day here in Belize. That's what I say every single time.
0:53.6	Every day is beautiful. I have been seriously thinking of how I want to
1:02.4	explain some very old theories and philosophy that feel brand new and I think can really help you with urges and overeating. And I'm so excited
1:15.8	because the author that I just love Pemashodran, I talk to you a lot about her over these
1:23.5	podcasts, but she's a Buddhist nun. So she's very strong in the Buddhist philosophy. And of course,

1:56.7	that this is a wonderful tool for you to be able to use. And every single time, this is what's so
2:04.0	fascinating to me is every time I read a book by her, I get so excited. And I get so excited,
2:10.0	I want to teach it to you. And then when I go to teach it to you, I don't know where to start.
2:16.7	So today is the day where I just start. And really what I'm
2:21.7	talking about has a lot to do with what I want to teach you, which it's so uncomfortable,
2:26.6	even for me to try and teach new material. It's uncomfortable because I've never taught it
2:33.2	before. So it's very easy just to say
2:37.0	forget it. Just like it's very easy when it gets very uncomfortable for you when you want to
2:44.8	eat something that you really don't want to be eating, a lot of times you'll just say, forget it and eat it as opposed to
