Restricting isn’t control, it’s a stress response. When you’ve been struggling with food, it’s easy to think the answer is less: less eating, less hunger, less emotion. But restriction doesn’t create safety, it creates survival mode.
Your body isn’t “failing” when cravings get stronger. It’s protecting you. And the moment we stop punishing ourselves and start listening, everything shifts.
So many clients realize that the issue was never really food, it was fear, perfectionism, and the belief that they aren’t allowed to take up space.
Healing happens when you replace control with connection. When you let nourishment be an act of trust, not punishment.
💬 Save this if you’re ready to shift from control to connection.
