Your Body Is Speaking
You just ate. You're actually full. And yet — there it is, that pull in your stomach, that restlessness in your hands, that quiet but stubborn whisper: Just a little more. Just something small. Just one more piece. You open the fridge even though you closed it twenty minutes ago. You stand in front of the cupboard in the evening and eat standing up, barely tasting anything. You're thinking about the next meal while you're still in the middle of the current one.
This hunger is not the hunger biology talks about. Biology knows blood sugar, stomach fullness, the signals of satiety hormones — and those have long since been set to "enough." What is calling out in you comes from a different level. It comes from a space inside you that cannot be filled with food, no matter how many times you try.
