About this listen

Stress eating is often done without even realizing you are using food to deal with the stress, It’s just an automatic response, an unconscious reflex to stress. You’re not truly stomach growling hungry. Stress eating isn’t the lack of willpower; it’s an unconscious act.

Too much stress overloads your nervous system. Sends it into a flight or fight mode. Trying to protect you. Eating activates the calming response; This is temporary and often leads to additional stress once you’ve realized what and how much youhave eaten. Starting a vicious cycle of self-sabotage. Chewing, warmth and fullness give our body false safety signals.

This week we talk about stress eating and some tips to help you through.
