Discover a little trick to create more of what you actually want this Christmas.

What’s that got to do with food and eating?
Well, overeating in a way that isn’t enjoyable isn’t usually about the food at all—it’s more likely to be in response to something else entirely.
Food is effective in the moment. It does create a little bit of what you’re longing for … it’s just not the answer you really crave and, when overeating or bingeing become a pattern that’s repeated often, it can really bring you down.
Listen in to hear one simple way to create more of your kind of Christmas magic so you don’t have to rely on food as a substitute.
