Manage episode 508014413 series 3658005
Food isn’t just a coping mechanism to feel better in the moment, it’s how your body has learned to regulate your nervous system.
So when you “take away the food” with most diets, you’re not just taking away the quick hit of dopamine or momentary sense of pleasure…
You’re taking away the primary way your body has learned to cope, relax, and self-soothe on a deep level.
This is where “self-sabotage” often comes into play, but I want you to start thinking about it in a new way.
Because it’s really a form of self protection.
Keep listening and learn how to shift out of negative thought patterns, so that you can lose weight and end emotional eating for good.
