Episode 25: What drives emotional eating?

Do you consider eating as a method of self-care? Oftentimes, unrecognized influences by diet culture can jeopardize our connections with food and our bodies. It’s hard to determine what is perceived as a healthy diet, or how we should feel about ourselves when eating.

In this week’s episode on the Art & Science of Eating podcast, Jessica discusses the two constituents of emotional eating, from which she will support her clients in the upcoming Connected Eating Program. That is, she touches base on the physical urge:

• What does the body need and how to deconstruct restrictions formed on the influence of diet culture

And emotional urge:

• Understanding emotions and supporting people with the addition to food; not without food

Consider joining Jessica’s online Facebook group, “the Comfy Spot,” to get connected with like-minded individuals who are striving to push for happy eating and strengthening relationships with food.
