Manage episode 497240149 series 3400484
We explore the paradox of why we eat junk food when we know better with Connie Bennett, author of "Sugar Shock," "Beyond Sugar Shock," and "I Blew My Diet. Now What?" Connie shares her powerful journey from sugar addiction that caused 44 ailments to becoming a health coach, and then her relapse after losing her mother.
• Connie identifies 21 reasons people eat badly, including four major "binge triggers"
• "Heartbreak binging" occurs after losing loved ones, while "caregiving chomping" affects those caring for others
• Trauma can lead to "comfort crunching" while relationship changes may cause "divorce devouring" or even "contentment crunching"
• Navigating the "junk foods jungle" requires planning ahead with healthy snack alternatives
• The power of fractals in nature can reduce stress by 60% almost instantly
• Connie's "hug-hum-rock relief process" combines hugging, humming and rocking to eliminate cravings
• Meditation creates a foundation for better food choices and smoother daily functioning
