Hi Mary, there are innumerable strategies that help reduce hunger such as avoiding refined carbohydrates, getting plenty of natural sunlight on your skin, drinking large amounts of water on a regular basis, and getting plenty of fiber in your diet.

There are many reasons that cause people to overeat. The root of the problem is often emotional rather than physical. It is important for those who are struggling with appetite to take the time to not only exercise the body but also to conduct the inner work of self-realization and healing to begin to tackle the underlying issues of why they overeat. It is important to determine if one's overeating is a result of emotional triggers such as anger, sadness, depression, or low self esteem. Some people tend to overeat to combat boredom. When left feeling as if they have nothing else to do, they want to feed themselves. Others may have used overeating since childhood to comfort themselves after lonely or traumatic experiences. Ultimate health and success of every person depends upon determining what triggers his or her addiction to food. ALong with the necessary inner work, it is also important to take a examine one's diet and take the necessary steps to replace unhealthy foods and snacks with their healthy counterparts. This means substituting fruits and vegetables in place of refined white flour, sugar, and empty calories.

Aromatherapy is beneficial for decreasing appetite. It is also a powerful way to reinforce one's new mindset and to overcome food addiction. It is highly effective for those who are eat food as comfort. For those who know that they do not need to eat for your survival, but instead want to eat out of boredom, depression, or for another emotional reason, when faced with a craving, they can satisfy it with aromatherapy. Another thing to try is to increase water consumption. It is vital that one consumes enough water daily to maintain one's body in perfect form. Often the brain will signal that it is thirsty, and we mistakenly feed it instead. One recipe for an appetite controlling scent is to combine 1 drop of Clary Sage, 1 drop of Sandalwood, and 1 drop of Ylang Ylang essential oils and blend. In order to make a massage oil out of this, add it to a carrier oil, such as sweet almond, apricot kernel, or grapeseed oil and apply to pressure points. For immediate relief of cravings it may also be used in an inhalant, in an aromatic bath, or in the form of aromatherapy candles.
