Happy Satiated Saturday! 

 I have seen over the years when healing your relationship with food, there is a point many realize when it's not really about the food anymore. 

The focus on what, when, and how you're eating came in as protection. This protection was keeping you safe from addressing other areas, beliefs, perspectives that may have felt too emotionally intense to look at where focusing on your food actually felt safer in your body to ruminate on. 

 Healing your relationship with food can be experienced as in service to creating more emotional space to process, digest, assimilate, what your body has been emotionally holding on to. 

When you have been dieting, restricting, and focusing on food for years and years there can be many emotional reactions that arise in the process of shifting your focus away from food to attend to other areas of your life that need healing.

In this week’s episode, I will discuss the stages of healing your relationship with food and what you can expect on a food healing journey.

You get to trust you're always exactly where you're meant to be. Your healing path will unfold the way it needs to and this is an adventure that can be enjoyed every step of the way.

Happy Satiated Saturday! 

 I want you to imagine eating a meal in a loud, bustling restaurant. Notice how you feel in your body. 

Now imagine your eating at a quaint quiet cottage. Again, notice how you feel. 

Imagine you're eating a meal standing up at the sink. Now imagine you're eating a meal in your favorite part of your home. 

Notice the different sensations that arose through these images. 

Your environment then plays a huge role in making a meal feel satiating and satisfying. 

In this week’s episode, we will explore how your eating environment affects your eating patterns and digestion. I will also offer questions you can begin asking yourself before every meal to bring more attention to your eating environment. 

I felt it was apropos that when speaking about eating environment, a motorcycle passed by outside while I was recording. I decided to keep it in and notice how you feel in your body with the words that were being spoken and the sound of the motorcycle as it passes by. 

You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/how-eating-environment-impacts-emotional-eating 

How do different eating environments affect your experience of your meal? Email me at [email protected] and let me know!

Happy Satiated Saturday! 

 Food is often the first form of love we receive as a baby from a parent or caretaker. While you're being fed, often there is eye contact, touch, and nourishment. This can leave a baby feeling heard, seen, acknowledged, loved, and cared for.

Emotional and physical hungers are being satiated at the same time.

This can lead to the signals for emotional and physical hungers to get crossed at a young age. Because food becomes something that supports you in feeling safe and attuned to from the time you're born, it is important to somatically identify what the difference between emotional and physical hungers feels like in your body so that you know as an adult what best satiates each kind of hunger. 

In this week’s episode, I will share tips on how to somatically identify the difference between physical and emotional hunger in your body so you feel more empowered in how to identify which hunger you're feeling and optimally satiate the hunger present. 

You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/how-to-somatically-identify-the-difference-between-physical-and-emotional-hunger. 

You get to be gentle with yourself in this process. You have always been doing the best you can to take care of you and over time you will simply have new information that you can start practicing showing up for your hungers in new ways.

With Compassion and Empathy, 
Stephanie Mara Fox

Happy Satiated Saturday! 

FOMO was first popularized in 2004 and means fear of missing out. FOMO can play out in our relationship with food as the fear of missing out on tastes, textures, certain foods around specific times of year, or the pleasure from a food. Often, the moment of Food FOMO has little to do with the food itself and more to do with the attachment and meaning we have put on that food. The experience of Food FOMO is then perpetuated by the sensations of fear in the body. 

In this week’s episode, we will break down what happens in your body when you experience Food FOMO and new ways to navigate these food moments.

Happy Satiated Saturday! 

You're hungry. You recognize your body needs food. You have taken all the best steps before your meal. You checked in with yourself. You asked your body what foods might feel most supportive to it. You made your meal or ordered it at a restaurant. You chose what you thought would feel satisfying to your body and then you start eating and something about the food is just not resonating with you. 

It happens. Sometimes, even with all the eating tools you may have, your body will speak up and let you know as you actually start to eat what does or does not resonate with your system in that exact moment. 

So what do you do?

In this week’s episode, I will discuss 3 different ways you can begin to practice responding to a dissatisfying meal in new ways.

Happy Satiated Saturday! 

We have many different parts of us. These inner parts of us all feel as though they are serving us in some way. When in relationship with food, it can be supportive to get curious about who's choosing your food, who's doing the eating, what is that part of you desiring to receive from food, where do they live in your body, and what does it feel like when they show up. 

During my teenage years, when my emotions felt too big to navigate, my inner child would come in with, "Alright, I've got this. We need ice cream, doritos, or pizza stat." Coming out of a food coma, all I was dealing with was an upset tummy instead of my emotions. 

In this week’s episode, I will discuss how to identify what part of you is eating when choosing food to self soothe and new ways to show up for this part of you.

Happy Satiated Saturday! 

It's the morning. You're feeling a new resolve that today is the day you're going to have the most joyous and smoothest day with food. You feel calm and connected and feel like you know what you need to do to make new food decisions. 

Breakfast is a breeze and you continue on with your day. As the hours tick by, you start to notice familiar urges arise. Suddenly, at 3:00, 4:00, 5:00, 9:00, or 11:00 pm, as if you had blacked out, you find yourself stewing over how you ate the entire bag of this or a whole carton of that. 

In this week’s episode, I will share the top 3 reasons your food habits aren't changing.

Happy Satiated Saturday! 

It was my first year of Graduate School and my first time living by myself in my own apartment. I was experimenting with applying the somatic tools I was learning in relationship with food. Up until that point in time, I had also labeled foods as good or bad, something that if you have been with me for a while I'm very clear now that there are no good or bad foods. 

I knew that to deepen into healing my relationship with all food I needed to also have neutral eating experiences with foods I had labeled as "bad." So I created an experiment for myself. Every day for a week, I chose a food I had labeled as "bad" and ate that for dinner. One of those foods was ice cream. 

In this week’s episode, I share my experience with de-labeling a food and how you can too. 

You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/eating-ice-cream-for-dinner

Give yourself all the time you need on your food and body adventure. There is no rush. You get to trust you're always exactly where you're meant to be, learning what you're meant to be learning. 

With Compassion and Empathy, 
Stephanie Mara Fox

Happy Satiated Saturday! 

When I was 21 years old, I was sick and tired of being in severe digestive pain. Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis runs in my family. To make sure I wasn't going down the same path I went in for a colonoscopy and endoscopy to check out what might be going on inside. 

The great news was that everything looked perfect. The confusing news was being diagnosed with Irritable Bowel Syndrome and given no guidance whatsoever about what to do with the symptoms I was experiencing. 

In this week’s episode, I share a crucial discovery on my healing path and 3 signs of when to stop focusing on what you're eating.

All over social media this past week, individuals have been cheering her on as a role model for women all around the world and of all ages that your self care needs to come first.
