The most broadly accepted definition of loneliness is the distress that results from discrepancies between ideal and perceived social relationships. What we perceive as causing loneliness isn’t necessarily about social interactions at all. It’s our interpretations of things that cause us to use food to soothe, numb, and create pleasure. In this episode we will give concrete examples of how one might use food if they are “lonely” and what exercises you can adopt that will begin to heal this unhealthy pattern.
