Feeling forever trapped in a cycle of unhealthy habits, wondering why your diets fail or your emotional struggles persist despite your best efforts? In this episode, Leslie dives into the root causes of emotional eating and unhealthy coping mechanisms, exploring the deeper connection between mastering emotions and achieving lasting health. She challenges you to rethink your approach to well-being, emphasizing the importance of nurturing both your emotional and physical self.
She couldn't help but emphasize that ignoring your emotional needs can lead to a life filled with stress, unhealthy relationships, and coping behaviors like overeating or impulsive spending. Without addressing the underlying emotional triggers, you risk continuing a cycle of frustration and self-blame that keeps you stuck. As Leslie points out, these unprocessed emotions can spill over into every aspect of life, from your health to your finances, creating a ripple effect of disempowerment.
And the key to breaking free lies in acknowledging and mastering your emotions, learning how to process and release them in healthy ways. Leslie offers actionable steps and resources to help you regain control, trust your intuition, and create a fulfilling, balanced life. By addressing these challenges with compassion and clarity, you can transform your struggles into opportunities for growth and empowerment.
"Hypnosis quiets down the conscious mind that's buzzing around all day long, fearing, worrying, looking at time, thinking about how your body feels and your weights and your clothes. All that stuff that comes up when you're not distracted by work.
All those thoughts you have when you wake up in the morning, that is the tape that we need to just quiet down so that we can then access, we can do the deep dive into the emotions and into the intuition, into the unconscious stuff so that you can get into agreement with your conscious mind and then your actions can become aligned." - Leslie Thornton
