PROBLEM OF ABNORMAL APPETITE
Question—Will you please help me to overcome an abnormal craving appetite for food?

ANSWER—We need to be well balanced on all three planes, spiritual, mental and physical, and it is contrary to the law of God to violate any one of God's laws. Cultivate a hobby. Become vitally interested in some line of study. Stimulate the mind with something constructive and try to realize that you do not live to EAT and that enough food is as good as a feast. Habit will reassert itself as long as you indulge it and even for a time after you have repeatedly denied it; but the appetite will gradually become normal in its demand.

OVERCOMING SENSITIVENESS
Question—I do not think that I am as sensitive as I used to be, as I can laugh at myself and really enjoy it. But my husband! While I am learning to laugh, he is hurt at mere trifles which were never intended to hurt. Two sensitive people always together is too much. Can you help both of us to overcome this sensitiveness?

ANSWER—If both you and your husband would start with knowing that neither one wishes to offend or hurt the other and that neither one can possibly be offended and begin to idealize each other a little and stop expecting to be sensitive or to be hurt and be just down-right good pals, with complete frankness toward each other, I think your troubles would soon be over.
