In today's video I chat honestly about what to do when you know you should eat healthy, but find yourself sabotaging anyway. I've gotten some vulnerable calls lately from people feeling frustrated about losing control around food. I share the science behind why this happens: our brains seek food for safety when our nervous system doesn't feel secure. This isn't about willpower; it's that our body learned to use food to self-soothe. I explain the mind/body connection and why we lose touch with physical hunger cues when stressed. The good news is you can retrain your system! I share my personal journey and a healthier perspective focused on nurturing true mind/body harmony. There's no quick fix, but with self-compassion, you can get to the root and heal. Let me know in the comments if this resonates or you have any thoughts to add! What has your experience been in feeling empowered around food?
