What An Emotional Eating Coach Does

By Joshua Foster


Diets come and go, and there is no doubt that it is more the mental aspect of this eating program which is difficult to maintain. It especially applies when you eat for emotional reasons. Many people find that they become addicted to food. They are drawn to chocolate and fries whenever there is a problem in their lives. This is obviously a big problem. This is where an emotional eating coach can do wonders for you.

This type of coach helps support you when you struggling on your own. It is not easy to lose the pounds on your own when you are exposed to stress and anxiety throughout the day. Many people have learned to have a chocolate or a packet of nuts when they become highly stressed or depressed.

This is a way of comforting themselves. It makes them feel better just like drugs will make an addict feel better. Essentially, you become addicted to food and this is as dangerous as becoming addicted to drugs. People will play this down saying that food is not dangerous.

You will find that once you have tackled the problems in your life, you will be less emotional and there is less of a need to dive into the carbohydrates and the sugars which give you more comfort. However, it is a habit which is difficult to break. Someone like this has become an addict, and you have trained the brain to eat whenever there is a problem.

People usually think of an addict as someone who has problems with drugs or alcohol. However, food can be just the same. It is also dangerous because it can lead to diabetes, obesity and other health problems. When you are overweight, you are not comfortable. You have a poor self image and a low self esteem.

You have to learn to be satisfied in other ways without turning to food. People get enjoyment from other relationships. But you have to do something for yourself. It can be arts and crafts or participating in a sport. You may enjoy gardening or riding a bike. In this way you forget about physically eating, and you become focused on another sense of fulfilment.

The mindful aspect to losing weigh has been very effective over the last couple of years. Most people with these sorts of problems have tried one diet after the next. But it is the mental aspect that sets them back every time. The mindful approach is so helpful because it trains your brain to help you know when you are hungry.

Mindfulness is an approach that has been used for the last couple of years. It has helped many clients grow from strength to strength. They learn to know more about when they are actually hungry rather than simply eating when they are depressed or anxious or simply because they are bored. Of course, it can take time to get to this point because it is a case of training the brain. It is also important that the client has a good relationship with the coach that is built from trust.
