Show Notes

When a negative or uncomfortable feeling arises, it is common for people to manage these feelings with food. Food acts as a distraction and and buffers negative feelings by releasing dopamine, which is a feel-good hormone. Learning to manage these emotions and understand the underlying thoughts that drive our actions is an essential tool for living a naturally healthy life. During this podcast, I discuss a concept I call "Creating a Container" as a tool for analyzing and better managing emotions without food.
