Episode Synopsis

Emotional eating is a lot more complex than just, "I'm sad so I want a treat."
We also eat when to celebrate, to fit in, and so many other reasons.
Understanding the biological, social, and emotional components of how and why we eat is really important if you want to hone the skill of mindful eating where you nourish your body, indulge intentionally, and food thoughts don't dominate every waking moment.
I'm joined today by Registered Dietitian, Lisa Ellis to discuss this and more.
