🍎 HEALTH: Overcoming Emotional Eating | Jolene Abercromby, Nutritional Therapy Practitioner
Welcome to The EnvisionAir Podcast, your go-to self-development podcast where we envision living our best lives filled with unlimited possibilities by exploring everyday topics related to health, wealth, community, and love. Today we have an exciting and insightful topic to discuss: "Overcoming Emotional Eating" with Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, Jolene Abercromby and are talking about what emotional eating is; and practical steps to take when triggered by different emotions (sadness, boredom, loneliness guilt and even happiness).
Key takeaways:
- What is Emotional Eating? Jolene explains that emotional eating involves using food to deal with emotions instead of hunger. It often develops as a coping mechanism for stress, anxiety, or other emotional distress and is linked to the brain's reward system.
- Identifying Emotional Eating: Jolene discusses symptoms and behaviors such as eating when not hungry, craving specific comfort foods, eating to the point of discomfort, and feeling guilty after eating. Keeping a food diary can help identify patterns.
- Common Triggers: Emotional eating can be triggered by various emotions, not just stress. Jolene mentions that sadness, boredom, or loneliness can also lead to emotional eating. Skipping meals as a form of emotional avoidance can result in later binge eating.
- Difference from Other Eating Disorders: Jolene distinguishes emotional eating from disorders like binge eating and secret eating, noting that emotional eating is often situational, while the other disorders involve regular, uncontrollable eating behaviors.
- Jolene's Personal Story: Jolene shares her own struggles with emotional eating and how she overcame it through self-reflection and professional help.
- Dealing with Emotional Eating: Jolene emphasizes the importance of awareness and finding alternative ways to cope with emotions, such as journaling, talking to friends, or engaging in physical activity and the STOP process she recommends.
