During our weakest, most stressful moments, many of us find ourselves staring into the fridge or pantry for comfort. Feeding our feelings is a common coping response to life stressors. In fact, 38% of adults admit to overeating or eating unhealthy foods due to stress. Using food to suppress or calm negative emotions is a temporary, short-term solution that does little to address the actual problem and wreaks havoc on weight loss goals. In addition, emotional eating often hides emotions and thoughts that are out of our awareness but still motivate many of our actions. Self-defeating behaviors, such as emotional eating might not make sense on the surface, but there is usually an underlying explanation. On today's show I’ve brought in an expert in the area of emotional eating. Health psychologist Dr. Shawn Hondorp will shed some light on this difficult issue and leave you with some inspiration on how to live and eat better.Resources/ Things Mentioned During The Show:Emotional Eating Guide: https://drhondorp.com/guideValues Clarification Guide: https://drhondorp.com/goalsDr. Hondorp website http://drshawnhondorp.com/Back Story Master Class Enroll https://neely-counseling-center-plc.ck.page/93288607abDrop The BS Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/dropthebspodcast/Psychology Today https://www.psychologytoday.com/us
