We ALL eat to self-regulate and feel good, but I work with moms who live with a LOT of guilt over this habit... and Im here to tell you: Self-regulation isn’t about willpower, discipline and control.
It’s about giving your brain other ways to feel safe and calm. In the MOMENT of an urge, breathing, labeling the emotion and doing other dopamine boosting things are some ways to interrupt the pattern and start to create a new pattern. And in LIFE, it's also important to look at how you can create more peace, calm, self-care, and happiness.
❤️From a dietitian who specializes in emotional eating and sustainable habits for moms.
If this made you feel seen, share it with a mom who needs the reminder ❤️
