The Psychology of Cravings: What Is Your Body Really Asking For?
Have you ever wondered why you crave chocolate late at night, salty chips after a stressful day, or sweets when you’re feeling low?
In this episode of Change Your Relationship with Food, we dive into the psychology of cravings—and reveal the surprising truths about what your body and mind are really asking for.
Instead of seeing cravings as “bad” or a lack of willpower, you’ll learn how to decode them as messages of wisdom. Together, we’ll explore:
✨ The science behind cravings and your brain’s reward system
✨ Emotional roots of food cravings (stress, comfort, childhood conditioning)
✨ What common cravings really mean—beyond the food itself
✨ Practical tools to respond with compassion instead of guilt
By the end of this episode, you’ll see your cravings in a whole new light—and feel empowered to meet your deeper needs with curiosity, compassion, and freedom.
