3 Strategies to STOP Stress Eating

WHYYYYYYY did I do it again?!     We've all been
there: standing in the pantry, 1/2 a bag of chips down, not even
knowing why we're there or how we ate that much. Or whatever YOUR
version of mindless eating looks like.  If you stress eat,
you're far from alone. It usually starts with some stressful
situation or thought, we grab the food on autopilot not really even
thinking about what we're doing or making a conscious choice.
 Then we realize what we're doing and go down the shame/blame
spiral about how horrible we are, we'll never be in control, we'll
never succeed at losing weight, we suck.  Which of course
creates more stress and increases the likelihood that we'll do it
again.     If you're trying to lose weight and get
healthy, stress/emotional eating is a MAJOR stumbling block that
will keep you stuck if it's not addressed.  And THIS is a
major reason why those diet results never last - most diets only
aim to control WHAT you eat, not understand WHY you're eating it.
    There's 3 main reasons why stress eating is
happening: 1. it WORKS - eating literally releases calming hormones
in your brain 2. you're "buffering" - a behavior performed to AVOID
a difficult thought or emotion (to not deal with the tough stuff)
3. your brain needed a break - overwhelm is real, but WHY is it
happening? what does your brain need a break from?   In this
episode I'm going to break down 3 strategies to help you STOP
emotional eating in it's tracks.  We're going to interrupt the
auto-pilot behavior patterns with conscious and purposeful
thoughts and actions.  Scroll down to grab the free worksheet

Healthy Mind, Healthy Body Program & Membership! Ditch the
Diets and Finally Make Peace with Food If you struggle with yo-yo
dieting then you know how hard it is to make any real lasting
change.  Unfortunately most women get stuck in the belief that
being on a diet is the only way to lose weight and get healthy, and
when they inevitably fail they’ve destroyed their self esteem,
destroyed their relationship with food, and get stuck in a
guilt/shame spiral that starts the whole process over again.  
If you don’t understand how reprogram your mind that is sabotaging
you, and reprogram your body for health, you’ll never make lasting
progress.   That’s why I created the Healthy Mind,
