Because we celebrated Kartini Day surely we would not be easy to forget her work with the title of Habis Gelap Terbitlah Terang. Many contents of meaning which was dug from the thing like there was a milieu of full of hope could have meaning of stupidity there was a progress of not knowing to become more knowing. Because of that, let’s change, like habis gelap terbitlah terang.
Ir. Nunik Harsiana, Hypno-therapist who was also IPB alumnus, shared the accurate trick about how was the method to have a happy eating but the body was still slender. According to her, healthy and slender were coming from the human thought. In some humans, there were still many who had the habit to be trusted or which was convinced about not good for health, for example there was the faith that the pregnant women should eat for the portion of two persons. Besides that, other barrier to be difficult to be slender was the sensational dieting, for example not few of women who wished to be slender used various therapies and carried out the diet whereas there was a little possibility to succeed. Other thing was Emotional Eating i.e. eating only because of emotional desire. The third barriers could be controlled by changing the way of thinking and should be able to synergize between our thought and body. (dh)
