If you struggle with emotional eating, this podcast episode offers a game-changing perspective. Dr. Adrienne Youdim introduces the research of Dr. Lisa Feldman Barret, who challenges the conventional wisdom that emotions are automatic reactions to events. Instead, Dr. Barrett suggests that our brain predicts emotions based on past experiences, our body's budget, and the current situation.
By understanding and modifying these ingredients, we can take control of our emotions.
Dr. Youdim emphasizes the importance of taking care of our body's budget through nutrition, sleep, and movement. She also encourages changing our predictions and narratives to reshape our emotional responses. By rewiring our brain's reactions, we can create a more positive and realistic emotional experience.
This episode offers practical strategies to disentangle food from emotions and soothe ourselves in healthier ways.
Don't miss out on this opportunity to change your relationship with food.
