Overthinking Overeating

KAT RENTAS
About this episode

Did you know that your overthinking is leading to overeating?

Overthinking simply occurs when you endlessly layer thoughts to solve a problem.

You take one worry or concern and then add multiple layers of them in your mind.

In doing so, you impact your emotional state and nervous system.

When we don’t protect our nervous system we make ourselves prone to seeking comfort in food. 

This is when overeating occurs.

In today’s episode, we talk about how to know if you’re overthinking, how it can naturally lead to overeating, and how you can work to remove overthinking from your daily life.
