Rewiring Your Food Habits with Karen R Koenig

If you want to find and maintain a healthy weight, you have to stop using food to make yourself feel better. You need to break the habitual response between I feel and I eat, mood and food, feeling and feeding.
Ever felt like your relationship with food is a never-ending battle? In this episode of 'A Quest for Well-Being', psychotherapist Karen R Koenig offers a fresh perspective on how to break free from the cycle of food obsession and dysregulated eating. With over 30 years of experience, Karen dives into the psychological aspects of eating—focusing on the 'how' and 'why' rather than the 'what'.
She explains why traditional diets often fail, leaving us feeling deprived and frustrated, and shares practical advice on how to listen to your body's signals instead. Karen also explores the deep connection between trauma and eating behaviors, shedding light on how past experiences can influence our current habits. She encourages listeners to seek therapy as a way to address these underlying issues, promoting self-compassion and emotional well-being in the process.
Through her compassionate approach, Karen emphasizes that eating healthfully is an essential part of self-care, one that requires effective life skills and a supportive mindset. But it's not just about food. This episode also touches on finding meaning in life and the spiritual aspects of emotional health. Karen believes that by nurturing our mental and spiritual well-being, we can foster a healthier relationship with food and our bodies.
Whether you're struggling with food obsession or simply looking to improve your eating habits, this episode offers valuable insights and practical tips to help you on your journey.
