AND GO BEYOND THE DIET!
_© Copyright 2012 T.A. Collie FONT-SIZE: MEDIUM;\">WHAT DO YOU DO
TO COPE WHEN YOU
FEEL STRESSED?
ARE YOU AN EMOTIONAL EATER?
DO YOU TURN TO FOOD FOR COMFORT?__
HAVE YOU TRIED DIET AFTER DIET
ONLY TO PUT WEIGHT BACK ON,
OFTEN MORE THAN BEFORE?
DO YOU TRY TO COPE WITH STRESSFUL FEELINGS
BY EATING WHEN YOU'RE NOT HUNGRY,
EATING TOO MUCH OR
MAKING UNHEALTHY FOOD CHOICES?
For many people, coping with feeling stressed, anxious or
disappointed about our lives and ourselves often involves substances
such as food to provide comfort. But this 'emotional eating' often
ends up causing more stress and bad feelings about who we are.
REGARDLESS OF WHAT YOU KNOW ABOUT EATING RIGHT, OR WHAT YOU THINK
YOU SHOULD_ _DO, OR WHAT DIET PROMISES THE NEXT MIRACLE - DO YOU
TURN TO FOOD WHEN STRESSFUL EMOTIONS COME UP?
Many people identify with emotional eating, and are familiar with the
vicious cycle of eating to chase away stress and strain, creating
guilt and self loathing, which in turn are then managed by turning to
food! We call this merry-go-round the 'FEELINGS-FOOD CYCLE'. Ask
yourself: what YOU do when painful feelings come up?
HELP OVERCOME THE FEELINGS-FOOD CYCLE IN THE COMFORT OF YOUR OWN
SPACE
Overcoming the vicious 'Feeling-Food Cycle' is about practicing
disconnecting your feelings from food and emotional comfort eating.
Until you do this, no amount of information alone can break the cycle
because feelings will always come up and disrupt your best of
intentions!
To help you break the 'Feelings-Food Cycle', we have designed a
series of downloadable podcast audio recordings for you to immediately
begin to practice shifting your focus from avoiding feelings with food
to a new awareness of yourself.
_The audio recordings are made up of a series of guided meditations
and exercises that are designed to develop awareness and tolerance of
your internal experience (i.e., your sensations, feelings, thoughts)
through breath work and relaxation that then allows you to more easily
access that part of you that is always noticing your experience. We
might call that our ‘observer’ or our ‘witness’ or perhaps
more simply, our ‘awareness’._
The goal of the podcast exercises is to show you how – by using
this newly developed awareness – you can develop acceptance and
tolerance of your own internal experience in a practical way that
builds faith in yourself and how you live your life. By developing
awareness and tolerance of your inner experience (feelings, thoughts,
sensations), you can begin to make different lifestyle choices
regarding WHEN, WHAT AND HOW YOU EAT.

WHAT IS IN THE AUDIO PODCAST?

the guided meditations. So for a ONE-OFF INVESTMENT OF ONLY

THOUGHTS. Learn more .
4) Finally there is a specific guided meditation designed to HELP
YOU BREAK YOUR AUTOMATIC RESPONSE OF TURNING TO FOOD FOR COMFORT
(i.e., break the 'Feelings-Food Cycle') when feeling STRESSED OR
ANXIOUS. Learn more .
BONUS INFORMATION: each guided meditation is preceded by an
introduction to help you to understand this approach to BREAKING THE
'FEELINGS-FOOD CYCLE'. You can work with these meditations over and
over again, practicing staying present with your experience and
developing your awareness of your reactions. Practicing AWARENESS
AND TOLERANCE OF YOUR THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS may assist you in
developing new behaviours so that when stressful emotions are
triggered, you are better able to COPE WITHOUT HAVING TO RESORT TO
EMOTIONAL COMFORT EATING. Developing AWARENESS OF OUR THOUGHTS can
help us to not be as affected by them especially any self-critical or
judgemental thinking that can be so common when we use food to help
manage our feelings. Being MORE AWARE OF OUR FEELINGS can help us to
build tolerance to them so that we may better cope with our emotions
without turning to food for comfort.

psychotherapy. There is also much that you can do to support your own
personal growth. As such, these recordings are designed for you to use
independently – as a self-help tool to increase your self-awareness
and get in touch with your emotional needs rather than resorting to
food. THESE RECORDINGS ARE NOT INTENDED TO REPLACE INDIVIDUAL MEDICAL
