For many years, Lara Fabian suffered from serious eating disorders. Now cured, she revealed how she managed to escape the hell of anorexia and her compulsive binge eating. In his book Allthe 54-year-old singer told how she struggled during “seven long years” against “an animal called complex eating disorder” in the late 1990s. Criticized over her image in the media and having “violent confrontations“with professionals in the field, Lou’s mother (the fruit of her love with director Gérard Pullicino) begins to lose confidence in herself and takes refuge in food to soothe her ailments. The trigger? In April 1999, she ate”a mountain of tagliatelle with white truffle” and vomits for the first time.
“From this moment will follow a long crossing of the desert (…) I will oscillate between weeks where everything is apparently going well. Weeks where I will eat an apple cut into seven quarters for each day. A green apple on which I will plant small flags with the name of each day of the week“, she wrote. In 2010, her fragile body gave way. She broke two vertebrae. These fractures were explained by the doctors.”as the consequence of his emotional distress“. Her friend Masayo Hashimoto, chef of the Momoka restaurant in Paris, told the Quebec media Chatelaine how the artist managed to escape this vicious circle: “At the beginning, she wasn’t doing well. She barely ate. But over time, she found light. And it was love that ended up healing her“.
Lara Fabian saved thanks to kototama meditation
Now married to Gabriel Di Giorgio, Lara Fabian spoke about this ancestral method which saved her life: the kototama meditationa technique which consists of producing sounds to make certain parts of the body vibrate and soothe ailments. “When the vibration hits where it hurts, the pain disappears. It’s irresistible. Something within you gives way and comes to consciousness. It’s incredibly simple, it takes you back to the candor and joy of childhood.“, says the singer, who was also in a relationship with Patrick Fiori. According to Fabien Maman, one of the pioneers of this practice in France, which was taken up by the site Alternative Health : “the vibration emitted by a sound wave (instruments particularly rich in harmonics, voices), traveling through the body, allows you to work at different levels: physical, emotional, energetic and psychic“.
In addition to being perfectly soothed, Lara Fabian also has a little tip to stop gaining weight. “If you want to be careful, don’t eat after 5-6 p.m. I end a day, “I’m careful” with a soup and 60 g of brown rice. Or quinoa. If you eat after 6 p.m., only have soup. There you will never gain weight“, she confided to GAEL before adding the other treats she loves:”herbal teas galore. Lemon ginger, chocolate-chili pepper, the yogi… With algarve if you need a little sweetness“.
