Hi friends,
We hope this post finds you well.
Given more and more people are wanting peace with food and body and to navigate health concerns without the mental side effects of fear-basedeating, a very important aspect of competent eating is hunger.
As we all know, we eat for all kinds of reasons and are designed to do so.
We eat for:
Biological hunger
Nutrition/ health reasons
Connection
Celebration
Pragmaticeating (not quite ready but need to because not sure of the next opportunity)
Soothing
And lots more…..
None of these are bad and have their place with awareness and intentionality.
Those that struggle with judgement with any of these are at risk of shame and pride attacks, which can deteriorate body trust and confidence. And when we have been dieting vacillating with binging and still desire a smaller body or fear weight gain, we will be internally divided and unstable mentally with full permission, making it very difficult to eat peacefully for all the reasons above mentioned.
Listen in more regarding why the double-mindedness can happen and what you can start doing right now to become stable physically, mentally and emotionally.
And bonus! Here are two very important teaching videos that will give you very important nuances we teach in one-on-one sessions so that the diet mentality of “oh I can’t tell if I am hungry so I won’t eat” default can be fact checked.
