THE PSYCHOLOGY OF EATING………
THE PSYCHOLOGY OF EATING
Well, I am not going to be able to cover the entire psychology of eating… However, I am going to address the issue and will be expanding upon it in months to come.
It seems for the bulk of us that don’t have an “eating disorder” that if we have an unhealthy relationship with food, then we think there is something wrong with us. If we have an uncontrollable binge or feel less than empowered, if we have an extra few pounds to get rid of, we blame food. It is all foods fault. It is a wonder we are even able to eat at all isn’t it?
So, what is eating like for you? Who are you as an eater? What is your relationship with food like? What do you want it to be like? Here are 5 questions for you to ponder this month in regard to food and your relationship with it.
1. What is my relationship with food like?
2. How is the way that I eat, related to the way that I live?
3. What part of my relationship with food troubles me?
4. What would I like it to be instead?
5. What one step can I take this month to pursue a healthier relationship with food?
I really encourage you to journal about this topic and ponder it over the course of the next month. You will find some valuable insights and you become more “aware” of what you eat and why you eat what you eat.
Let me know what comes up for you, I love getting emails from you! Have fun with it, and go easy on yourself!
