Inspiring Quotes by Susan Thompson

“The reason we honor the Bright Lines and commit to living within them is because we find that consistency and structure make us Happy, Thin, and Free. More than that, they allow us to be the people that we strive to be and to do more of the things we want to do in life. Our focus moves beyond food; we become self-actualized and engaged with the world. That is what we all want our lives to be about.”

Bright Line Eating

Bright Line Eating

by Susan Peirce Thompson

Susan Peirce Thompson is a Professor of Brain and Cognitive Sciences at the University of Rochester....

“The point here is that once something becomes automatic, it frees up tremendous cognitive resources for other things. And you don’t have to think about the behavior *at all* to get it done. The best part, in terms of staying true to your regimen, is that it will eventually become uncomfortable when you *don’t* do it.”
