Happy Satiated Saturday! 

When healing your relationship with food, often healing your relationship with your emotions, and feeling safe in your body, needs to be attended to. This can be a journey that takes time and, on this adventure, food can be consciously utilized as a co-regulator. 

Co-regulation occurs when in relationship with another human being. Their nervous system affects your nervous system. Have you ever noticed how you feel different in your body when someone speaks to you in a calm, compassionate way? Or have you noticed how you feel in your body when someone holds eye contact with you and holds your hand? 

Our body's affect each other on a body to body level. Our body's talk to each other. 

In this week’s episode, let's explore two ways you can begin to use food as a co-regulator to support you in navigating your day and emotional body with more ease.

Happy Satiated Saturday! 

The first form of love you receive in life is often from food. 

Being fed as a baby provides attunement, regulation, soothing, and being held, seen, and cared for. For the rest of life, food can then be connected to am I safe, seen, and heard. It makes sense that if you're not feeling these things as an adult, food would then come in to provide you with what you're looking for. 

 This all starts with how you were supported in the early stages of your life. Your first life experiences set your nervous system up to feel, on a day to day basis, calm and regulated or on constant high alert. As you age, your relationship with food will connect with the relationship you have with your parents. 

In this week’s episode, I will discuss how your relationship with your parents shows up in your relationship with food and a Somatic Eating™ pre-meal embodiment practice you can engage in.

You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/how-your-relationship-with-food-mirrors-your-relationship-with-your-parents 

You don't have to navigate this alone. If you're ever looking for more support, email me at [email protected] anytime to get set up with a free 20 minute Connect Call.

Happy Satiated Saturday! 

In the US, we just celebrated Thanksgiving, the day where restricting your intake all day and then overeating and binge eating is normalized as something you just do on this holiday. 

The day after a holiday, after potentially eating a lot of food, there may be an urge to not eat. This impulse can arise for many reasons. Some may be:

• Still feeling full the morning after
• Worries about your body's health
• Fear around weight changes
• Trying to navigate bodily discomfort with more ease

In this week’s episode, I will explain how to navigate this urge differently and offer a Post Holiday Somatic Eating™ Plan to navigate the day and days after a holiday with more calm, ease, connection, and self attunement.

You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/creating-your-post-holiday-somatic-eating-plan

As a reminder, my Intro to Somatic Eating™ mini course is on sale for 50% off until the end of the day on November 28th, tomorrow. If you would like more tools in your eating toolbox, this mini course will offer you three new Somatic Eating™ tools to support you with creating a new relationship with food.

Happy Satiated Saturday! 

Attachment theory explores the relationship between a parent and child and how that relationship affects future development and behavior. Insecure attachment has been found in many research studies to be connected with higher rates of disordered eating. 

Your attachment style can reveal itself in how you relate with others and can also show up in your relationship with food as well. ​There are 3 different insecure attachment styles that include: Anxious, Avoidant, and Disorganized. 

In this week’s episode, let's dive into each insecure attachment style and how they can show up in your relationship with food.

You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/how-your-attachment-style-affects-your-relationship-with-food 

Having awareness of your attachment style can be empowering so that you have a deeper understanding of why you interact with your food the way you do. Change begins with cultivating awareness of what is. Awareness can create space for you to have a choice to show up in your relationship with food in a familiar way or in a new way. 

As a Thanksgiving treat, my Intro to Somatic Eating™ mini course is back on sale for 50% off until November 28th. If you would like more tools in your eating toolbox, this mini course will offer you three new Somatic Eating™ tools to support you with creating a new relationship with food.

Happy Satiated Saturday! 

How old were you when you started to choose food to self soothe? Sometimes this can happen later in life and what I often hear with those that I work with is that it started very young. The overeating, emotional eating, binge eating, undereating, restriction all came into your younger you's life for a reason. 

And what plays out in your relationship with food during the holidays is also happening to protect and support your Inner Child in many different ways. 

In this week’s episode, I wanted to write a love letter to your Inner Child to offer an example of what they might need to hear during this holiday season. 

You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/this-is-what-your-inner-child-needs-to-hear-this-holiday-season

You get to decide what is going to be most supportive to you and your Inner Child in any moment. And once you make your Food Decision, you get to trust that you have made the best decision you could.

Happy Satiated Saturday!

Thanksgiving is my mother's favorite holiday. She loves food, cooking, gathering, and feeding others. Like many, we have our Thanksgiving dish staples that she makes every single year. One of those is sweet potato casserole. 

When I met my husband, we began alternating which family we would spend Thanksgiving with. Something I started noticing is the years I would spend Thanksgiving with my husband's family, my craving for sweet potato casserole shot up. 

I would re-make this recipe the best I could and yet I could never quite make it the way she does. (Perhaps the missing ingredient is motherly love.) Anyways, I sat with this intense craving year after year when Thanksgiving would come around when I wasn't spending it with my mother.... 

In this week’s episode, I will share what I learned about my sweet potato casserole craving, 3 reasons cravings increase during the holidays, and Somatic Eating™ strategies to navigating your cravings differently. 

You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/3-reasons-why-cravings-increase-during-the-holidays

Happy Satiated Saturday! 

Binge eating​ is different than emotional eating and overeating. We all overeat and eat to emotionally self soothe at times. Binging includes eating a large amount of food, often very quickly, and to the point of feeling uncomfortable. ​Binging can feel confusing and disorienting. 

Today, let's reframe that binging is happening for a reason. It is there to protect you, to support you, to regulate you. There can be many different reasons why binging is happening and keeps happening. 

In this week’s episode, I will explore the top 2 reasons why binging on food keeps recurring.

Happy Satiated Saturday! 

I loved everything about Halloween growing up. I loved dressing up. I loved going out with my family and friends. I loved watching movies and eating candy with them afterward. There is an amazing picture of me after my first Halloween asleep in bed with my plastic pumpkin full of candy next to me because I didn't want my brothers to steal it. 

Have you ever noticed that this joyful experience as children changes as we age? Suddenly, candy is labeled as "bad" and something we should never eat by diet culture standards. So when a holiday like Halloween comes and there is candy all around, inner rebels arise where this food that has been identified as something you shouldn't have is the only thing you want. 

In this week’s episode, we're going to add 4 tricks to your Halloween treat bag this year to navigate your relationship with candy in a new way.

Happy Satiated Saturday! 

 My husband and I bought an airstream over a year ago. Right now, we're on our second trip driving across the United States. So far we have driven through Montana, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, Kentucky, North Carolina, Maryland, New York, and Vermont. Next up is Massachusetts and Connecticut. We have been on the road for about a month now and currently seeing some amazing fall foliage on the east coast. 

Every time we have hit the road, others keep telling me to do an episode about eating while traveling. When you look up these kinds of articles, they all say about the same thing. Plan ahead, look up menus to be able to choose the "healthiest" options, pack whole food snacks, yada yada yada. 

Sometimes these suggestions are doable and sometimes they simply are not. So I wanted to offer something a bit more basic of what might actually feel doable and honor you the eater that is always doing the best you can to nourish your body and that best may also mean just satiating your physical hunger with whatever is available. 

In this week’s episode, I dive into three unexpected eating on the road guidelines. 

You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/three-unexpected-eating-on-the-road-guidelines
