What does food mean to you? Is it simply nourishment for your body? Or, is it a reward when you feel the need to celebrate or do you reach for a quick bite when you are stressed?
People attribute different values and meanings to food and eating, which can cause health problems when it is overly associated with emotional nourishment. Dr. Melissa McCreery explores the psychology of overeating and why we women literally and figuratively often have too much on our plates and what to do about it.
Key Notes:
- Emotional overeating
- The meaning of food
- Mindful eating
- Managing stress
- Resources to actively soothe yourself instead of food
