Do you struggle with emotional eating? Many people do. Recognizing that emotional eating is deeply ingrained in us through positive and negative eating patterns is essential in the healing process. Whenever something happens emotionally, we eat. For example, we eat and have meals around weddings and funerals, so the connection between emotions and food is always present. Find out how to heal emotional eating patterns holistically.
We are taught to suppress emotions with something else, and it’s often food and eating. Talking about our feelings is not always comfortable because confronting, feeling, accepting, and admitting to our emotions can be uncomfortable, and it is easier for us to eat instead.
How To Heal Emotional Eating Patterns Holistically
When we were children, we would often receive a sweetie or candy for an uncomfortable experience, such as the doctor or dentist or a cry. This reinforced the idea that candy/food would solve the issue.
Andrea Caprio is an expert in emotional eating, a master transformational nutrition coach, and the founder and CEO of Wellness Methods. She developed her Food Freedom Formula to help busy women who struggle with cravings and emotional eating lose weight holistically without dramatic changes to their diets or workouts.
We discuss the five steps of her Food Freedom Formula and how they can help you achieve long-term success by getting to the root of the situation and holistically healing emotional eating patterns.
