EC 137: Stopping Emotional Eating With Jessica Romrell

Feb 12, 2020

Today I interview health coach Jessica Romrell about emotional eating, which she defines as ‘using food to cope with or escape an emotion’

STUPID IDEA OF THE WEEK

…is the concept of being ‘too emotional’. This is a nonsense, and is expressing something subtly distinct. Find out what that is…

 

MAIN SECTION

Emotional eating is not about the food. Let’s get under the bonnet of this issue and go deeper.

We discuss:

  • The problem with willpower
  • What stress cycles are and how they impact emotional eating
  • Deconstructing and neutralising the shame around this issue
  • The two types of coping that Jessica recommends
  • What true self care is (clue: it’s not taking a hot bath!)
  • What habit stacking is and why it’s important
