Taming the Nervous System: Overcoming Comfort Eating with Shelley Treacher

Moving rhythmically and emotional expression through movement not only helps you to reduce depression, but also improves your brain functioning, not to mention the physical benefits.
Ever wondered why comfort eating feels so hard to break? In this insightful episode of 'Underground Confidence Recovery', Shelley Treacher unpacks the intricate connection between our autonomic nervous system and our eating habits. Drawing from Stephen Porges' Polyvagal Theory, Shelley explains how our body's response to stress can trigger comfort eating and offers practical exercises to help reset this response.
You'll learn about the roles of the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems, and how simple activities like laughing, humming, and dancing can activate the calming parasympathetic response. Shelley also dives into the psychological aspects, discussing how self-criticism and unresolved childhood issues can fuel the cycle of comfort eating. With her gentle guidance, she provides a roadmap to self-regulation and recovery, encouraging listeners to tap into their inner strength and make lasting changes.
If you're looking for compassionate advice on breaking free from comfort eating, this episode is a must-listen.
