About Me
- Evan Mehlenbacher
- I am a practitioner and teacher of Christian Science. From an early age I wanted to help others find spiritual healing for the problems they faced. After graduating from Stanford University and working with my dad in the family farming business for five years, I decided my heart was elsewhere. I left the business and went into the full time practice of Christian Science Mind-healing. For over 22 years I have been healing people of pain, suffering and disease through my prayers. I have written dozens of articles on spiritual healing that have been published in magazines and on the Internet. I teach a two week class annually on how to heal through Christian Science, and have a wonderful wife and two teenage children. I hope you stick around and enjoy this blog.

I love this blog of yours on tmcyouth.com.
http://tmcyouth.com/blogs/it%e2%80%99s-ok-to-love-your-self/
So what to do about gluttony, passivity, mindlessness, and compliance with this view of anyone? Totally trash all these labels - take them off the table, no recycling allowed - and bring on banquets of fresh and fair ideas about him, her, them, us, me - the very children of Love whose inherited tendencies are kindness to ourselves and to others, beauty that is original and sustainable, and satisfaction and fulfillment in all that God gives us to be and to do today and always. That's a diet to indulge in often and with gusto. (gus-to 2. vigorous enjoyment,zest.)
I'm enjoying this stream about eating. Thank you for allowing others in. I've been pondering this issue for some time, now, and my search is to balance my tendancies toward certain pathways I might choose for myself with the desire not to trespass upon my partner's chosen pathway. In the dynamics between husband and wife, compassion, love and respect can often guide decisions. When I cook for my wife, which is quite often, I try to be balanced and loving and not force my way on her. Progress may seem slower from my standpoint, however, to be lovingly supportive is important. Thanks, again. Zambini, the great (the worlds greatest chef)
