Break Free From Emotional Overeating & Find Your Healthy Weight For Life
Thu 20 Apr 2023 10:00 AM - 1:15 PM BST
Online, Zoom
Description
Do you feel trapped in a cycle of emotional overeating and dieting?
Do food, your body and your weight take up far too much energy and headspace, perhaps stopping you from venturing into dating, enjoying intimate relationships or fulfilling your true potential in work or in life?
Are you ready to break free and transform your relationship with your body, with food and with your feelings?
This deep-dive online workshop will support you to break the self-sabotaging habit of eating on your emotions and find healthier ways to process your feelings so that food becomes fuel, rather than an emotional crutch, and so that you can live your life free from obsession about your body, your weight or what you do or don't eat. I know from experience that this is incredibly liberating.
On this 3-hour workshop (with a break), we'll explore:
- Why you eat on your feelings; where and when the behaviour began and what your true needs were at the time
- How to process feelings in healthy ways, meet your own needs and soothe yourself rather than turn to food or other substances/behaviours for comfort
- How to show yourself forgiveness and compassion (this is key to long-term recovery)
- How to break the cycle of emotional overeating, one day at a time
- How to support yourself and find the right sources of support so that you can maintain a healthy weight for life
Why am I leading this workshop?
From my teens until my 30s, I was trapped in a painful cycle of binge eating, starving, compulsively exercising and dieting. Food and weight were a constant obsession. My weight impacted my self-esteem and confidence, my dating experiences and my intimate relationships. I hid my body beneath baggy clothes and I hated showing my legs and arms. I also damaged my health through overeating and undereating.
I began my journey of healing in my thirties and for almost two decades, I have maintained a stable weight. I no longer obsess about my body or the food I eat. I enjoy regular healthy meals along with healthy snacks and occasional treats. Yes, I still eat chocolate and cake. I feel free in my body, content in my clothes and happy to wear a bikini (most of the time - progress not perfection!).
More importantly, I've learned to feel my feelings and process my pain in healthy ways rather than avoid my feelings or numb my pain through food, alcohol, work, men or other compulsive, self-harming and self-sabotaging behaviours.
This workshop isn't a slimming club or a beauty contest and we won't be discussing diets (although healthy nutrition is an integral part of our healing journey). Rather, it's designed to support you to find inner peace and contentment, to grow in self-awareness and emotional maturity and to explore healthy ways to soothe yourself so that you no longer need to rely on a crutch.
While our long-term recovery from emotional overeating will inevitably take time, I hope this workshop will provide breakthroughs and light-bulb moments, alongside an invaluable feeling of belonging and of being accepted for who you are. I hope it will help to break any shame you might carry and move you forwards on your healing journey.
