info_outlineHey Rebel! Let's talk about food noise.
Do you feel like you're always thinking about food? Have you ever felt like:
- When sitting down for breakfast, I can't stop thinking about lunch.
- When sitting down for lunch, I'm already thinking about dinner.
- When eating dinner, I'm calculating how I could do "better" tomorrow.
- When you're trying to sleep, you can't stop thinking about breakfast tomorrow.
It is that constant chatter about food in your head. The thinking about food 24/7. And maybe food noise sounds a little bit different in your head, but if it feels all-consuming, if it feels all-controlling, if it's something that you think about literally all the time, this episode is for you!
I'm going to share 3 powerful ways that intuitive eating can help to quiet your food noise and free up precious brain space for you to focus on more important things in life.
