Step off the Scale: Break Free From Dieting
2. Conquering Emotional Eating Without Willpower
Emotional eating is a natural human behavior that can't be eliminated completely, but can be managed better with simple, practical strategies that don't rely on willpower alone.
• Nearly 60% of women use food for comfort during stress – you are absolutely not alone
• Food is naturally connected to emotions through celebrations, comfort, and cultural traditions
• Willpower isn't the issue – everyone emotionally eats at times, even those who claim they don't
• EFT tapping uses acupressure points combined with affirmations to reduce stress within minutes
• Simple meditation practices like "relaxing your forehead" can create awareness between emotions and eating
• Food awareness journals help identify patterns without judgment or calorie counting
• Small, consistent practices are more effective than trying to change everything at once
• Progress happens through patience, self-compassion, and celebrating small victories
