Satiated Podcast

No-Nonsense Approach To Navigating Stress Eating with Melissa McCreery

Happy Satiated Saturday! 

Labels like stress eating and emotional eating need some updating. 

By tacking on the words stress or emotional to eating, it gives the perception that the "problem" is stress or emotions, and if you can fix being a stressed person or person who feels (an impossible task), THEN the food behavior might go away. 

Stress and emotions are a part of life. Because of this, the practice can be to see the presence of stress or any emotion as body communication. It is telling you how it is processing your external and internal environments. 

Your body doesn't need help getting rid of the stress or the emotion. These things are present to get your attention that your body needs your support. With this perspective, stress eating can be seen as a bodily messenger letting you know that your body needs you to connect. 

In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Melissa McCreery, PhD, Psychologist, Emotional Eating Expert, and Author about: 

  • The complexities of stress eating including how stress impacts food choices and behaviors
  • Navigating emotional responses to food
  • Practical strategies for pausing and checking in
  • Building routines around self check ins
  • Acknowledging your needs and who you want to be that could lead to making different food decisions
  • Befriending stress

With Compassion and Empathy,
