Are you someone who reaches for the phone and orders a pizza or runs to the market to get a quart of ice cream if you’re sad, happy, bored, or lonely? Do you constantly think about food or are uncomfortable in your own skin?
If any of those statements resonate with you, you might want to examine your relationship with food. A lot of people tune out when they have difficult feelings and opt to use food for comfort instead of a healthier alternative, like a walk in the park or a movie with friends. I have worked with a lot of women who have eaten emotionally, and as a lot of you know I used to struggle with it as well. In my work with clients I have found 4 emotional keys that start to help repair your relationship with food.
