In this podcast episode, I explore why cravings occur and offer insights into managing them effectively. By understanding the root causes, individuals can better address their cravings and make healthier choices. I highlight the importance of factors like adequate sleep, balanced nutrition, regular exercise, and mindful planning in mitigating cravings. Moreover, I emphasize a shift in mindset from judgment to curiosity when facing cravings, encouraging listeners to explore underlying needs and adopt healthier coping mechanisms. I wrap up the episode by reminding you that cravings aren’t bad for you, it’s your response to them that can be detrimental to your health journey or physique goals.

Key Takeaways:

• Your cravings come from needing something nourished or a coping mechanism
• Your craving is a habit and can be changed when you better understand why its surfacing
• How to include movement throughout your day (outside of your workout)
• Why protein and magnesium will help mitigate your sweet tooth
• A tough day is not an excuse to treat yourself (at least not every time)
