The Midnight Craving Mirage

Metaphorical Narrative

The fridge light spills out like a stage.
The body says, “hungry,” but it’s not hunger — it’s restlessness in disguise.
The snack is a mirage: looks like comfort, delivers a crash.

Core Insight

This is comfort script vs. body alignment.
The compulsion sits in habit loops, not real need.
We apply the Human Baseline: breath, posture, HRV check.
Physiological grounding re-aligns the signal: body safe, no food required.
The mirage fades without willpower struggle.

Saturday Experiment

When craving hits, sit down.
Exhale slowly, place hand on chest.
Ask: “Is this hunger or restlessness?” Act only if it’s hunger.

Sunday Reflection

How did the person separate real hunger from the script?
What proof showed baseline restored alignment?
