Ever found yourself eating even when you're not hungry—just... feeling something? Maybe it’s stress. Maybe it’s boredom. Or maybe you’re trying to fill a space that has nothing to do with food.

This is emotional eating—when we use food to soothe, distract, or cope. And while it might feel comforting in the moment, it can quietly spiral into guilt, shame, and an even deeper disconnect from what we actually need.

In this video, we dive into why we emotionally overeat, the psychology behind it, and how to start building a healthier relationship with food and with ourselves. It’s not about willpower. It’s about understanding your triggers—and learning to respond with compassion, not punishment.

If you or someone you know is struggling with an eating disorder, please seek help from a licensed professional or an organization specializing in eating disorders."
