In today's episode, we discuss how moments of emotional distress can often trigger binge and emotional eating and it all starts with the thought 'I can't handle this'.
But what if there was a way to reframe that thought and change the course of your actions as a result? It all starts with combating overwhelm, building up alternative strategies, and garnering your support system in times of need. Learn from real client examples, who faced overwhelming situations without resorting to binge eating. We know you can too.
Discover practical strategies to recognize distress signals and implement grounding thoughts to help you on your journey to food freedom. And if you want to fast track the process, our coaching programs can help you break the binge-restrict-guilt cycle and strengthen your relationship with food and yourself.
