Ep #175: Eating for Comfort

KIRSTIN SARFDE
About this episode

Food is comfort. But is it? I'm going to say no and in this episode, I'm telling you why.

 

Yes there may be some chemical reactions in your brain that happen when you eat but, there's more to the story. The comfort you experience is mostly coming from somewhere else. So the good news here is, you can create comfort without eating anything. Listen in to this episode to learn how you're going to stop using food as your main source of comfort.
