'Society places enormous value on 'getting tasks over the line' such as work deadlines, getting the kids to school on time, paying our bills diligently, keeping a neat and tidy house etc...but VERY LITTLE value is placed on truly loving our bodies, especially if this should in any way disrupt our performance in 'getting tasks over the line'. What an absurd world we live in!' - Brendan Mooney Psychologist

'Why do we ignore the messages we receive from our bodies that communicate to us that the choices we are making are not supportive? For example, why do we ignore the exhaustion we feel and just have another coffee?' - Brendan Mooney Psychologist
'Our bodies give us messages every moment of the day, for example letting us know when we have eaten enough food. But how often do we ignore these messages and just overeat?' - Brendan Mooney Psychologist
'Our body naturally gives us messages about what is supportive and what is not. For example, it will communicate to us that we are tired and it is time for bed. But are we prepared to listen to these messages and make the necessary lifestyle changes required to support ourselves?' - Brendan Mooney Psychologist
