179- Understanding the Four Types of Hunger


Listen Later

Today, we're tackling a super common question: How do you tell the difference between physical hunger and emotional hunger? But did you know there are actually four different types of hunger? Understanding these can help transform your eating habits and your relationship with food.

In this episode, I break down the four types of hunger and share:

  • The subtle clues that reveal which type of hunger you’re experiencing.
  • How knowing this can change your eating habits for the better.
  • The key to reducing stress and anxiety around food.
  • The surprising truth about emotional eating – it’s not what you think!
  • We’ll also dive into why keeping regular eating intervals can be a game-changer for your energy and hormone levels, and how it helps you avoid those impulsive eating moments. Plus, we’ll explore how to create positive memories with food without the guilt.
