83 - How To Get Out Of The Extremes & Find your Middle Ground to Create Food Freedom

Do you find yourself triggered often? Do you find yourself struggling to manage difficult emotions? Do you notice yourself living in the extremes of life? Either over stimulated and anxious, or shut down and depressed? Do you notice yourself falling into exhausting patterns of restrictive dieting, overeating and then giving up on health goals for months at a time?
Most people move between these varying states of arousal from time to time. Trauma and/or extreme stress often make it more likely a person will become either hyper- or hypo-aroused. The hallmark of trauma is living between 2 polarities of high activation &/or shut down...feeling unsafe most of the time. Living in the extremes is not a place where healing happens. You are limited here. It is not your fault. You are doing nothing wrong. And there is a way out of this cycle. This podcast explains how your can widen your window of acceptance to finally experience food freedom & get off the hamster wheel of yoyo dieting. What lives between the black and white, all or nothing is endless possibility, options, flexibility, balance and food freedom.
