If just thinking about eating less makes you anxious, you’re not alone—and it’s not because you’re broken or addicted to food. It’s because your brain has been trained to associate eating with safety, comfort, and control. So when you try to eat less, it can feel threatening—even if part of you wants to change.
In this episode, we break down where that anxiety really comes from and how to shift your mindset so eating less doesn’t feel like punishment or deprivation. You’ll learn how to create a sense of safety around food, use your strengths to stay calm and centered, and start eating less naturally—not by force, but by alignment.
This isn’t about restriction. It’s about rewiring your relationship with food so eating less feels like freedom, not fear.
