Breaking free from emotional eating is essential to long term health and wellness, and it can be done - with the right tools. Often, we do not understand why we use food to deal with emotions and assume it is a lack of willpower.  Emotional eating is a common trap, it provides short term comfort, at the expense of our health and peace of mind. In this episode Dr Lucy and Dr Mary discuss the root causes of emotional eating, how it results from our brain's survival mechanism to cope with uncomfortable feelings. You will learn the powerful tools you need to break free from the emotional eating cage. Develop your awareness of your “P.H.A.L.T” triggers, and learn that willpower is not the solution. Instead, you can develop a healthy set of mindset tools that unshackle you from emotional eating, so you can live your best and healthiest life.
