The Eating Coach
Reclaim your life from food. Harriet Morris, The Eating Coach, uses psychology, neuroscience and her own brand of humour to help you achieve up a 95% drop in binge and compulsive eating and sugar addiction. How? By ditching diets, refusing to slavishly follow other people's truth and connect to your power that you are currently giving away to the nearest deli counter. Harriet was a food rebel for over three decades, living under the shadow of compulsive eating and sugar addiction. Turning 40 changed everything for her. She rejected self criticism in favour of curiosity and dismantled 95% of her eating compulsion and dropped 3 dress sizes in the process.

EC 223: Chaotic Foods with Louise Digby
I coined the term chaotic foods to refer to products that have negative and unexpected effects on the body. In this episode, I chat with nutritional therapist Louise Digby about her take on this topic, as well as sharing some revelations about processed foods that our conversation sparked in me. Discover: *Why diet foods can backfire so badly *Why ultra-processed foods have zero nutritional qualities, but also why they promote overconsumption *Why fat and carbs can be so addictive *Why inflammation is such a problem - not least because of how people view it *How these foods increase food cravings *Why hormones are a scapegoat for other issues *The effect sugar has on the menstrual cycle *What Louise advises her clients to do re: artificial sweeteners *The power of retraining your tastebuds *Louise’s 80/20 nutritional principle RESOURCES Find out more about Louise at @louisedigbynutrition Thriving Metabolism Podcast Harriet's Avoiding UPF s Experiment Ultra-Processed People is by Dr Chris Van Tulleken

EC222: Real Life Type 2 Diabetes Stories
Book a call to talk about coaching here: In this episode, I explore two very different real life type 2 stories. In the first story, we meet Hannah, whose food intake was very much controlled by what I call The Inner Food Rebel. I also interview a client of mine who in 6 weeks has dropped his A1C measure from 58 (well into type 2 territory) to 50 (pre-diabetes) and dropped 6 kilos. Find out how he achieved this. There are four ways that Hannah and my client diverge. Four factors in their respective outcomes: 1: The Role That Food Plays 2: Control 3: All or Nothing vs Moderation 4: Possibly the most important factor of them all. Listen in to find out what it is.

Just email me info @ theshiftinside dot com with the subject line GUT AUDIO Q: What’s better than a New Year’s Resolution? A: Why, a New Year’s REVOLUTION, of course! In this episode, I give you a total 180 degree change in how to approach health change at this most failure-prone time of the year that will revolutionise 2023 if you let it. The gut is the subject of some rockstar cutting edge research, so why not have the best of both worlds - a huge improvement in your health AND leaving behind struggle? Resolution smacks of push, push, struggle, do penance for your food sins and try to be a completely different person. There are two guiding principles to make superpowering your gut health much easier: #1 Focus on internal health and #2 Fall in love with the changes you need to make. As I explain, this is very different from the shame-based external focus of most people’s January ‘do better’ efforts.

There is no upper age limit! I want mature woman who have a story to tell or just want to be seen. Maybe life has gotten in the way of how they see themselves. We lead busy lives and spin many plates and very often we put ourselves last before everybody else! The menopause hits and we suddenly feel invisible and don't like the we look and feel anymore. The connection to ourselves has become lost but, we are still that same beautiful woman and our loved ones still see our beauty even when we do not. Through this campaign I want you to see yourself how others see you. I want you to really look at yourself and say 'wow' that's me! I am amazing! I can bring out the inner you in different ways. Flirty, fun, sexy, bold and strong! You can be one of those or all of them. This experience is designed around and for you. With a mood board, professional hair and makeup, up to 5 outfit changes (I have some amazing gowns) style guide and beauty guide along with the fully guided photo shoot it is an experience not to be missed. Once all 40 ladies have been photographed it will culminate in an evening of celebration. We will come together and celebrate our beautiful selves in style!

EC 210: How To Truly Accept Your Body

EC 210: How To Truly Accept Your Body
This episode is a follow on from episode 207 on your body as your long lost twin. Listen to that here: Today I talk about three ways to reconnect to that long lost twin inside you and make those important health and weight goals much more easily achievable. Reconnection Point 1: Eating Presence What is eating presence? Well, it’s slow eating, Jim - but not as we know it. Slow eating has probably the same status in your mind as watching paint dry while being poked with a sharp stick - boring and painful. No lie - it is uncomfortable. But in the same way that many of the great leaps forward in your life (getting married, becoming a parent, getting the promotion) involved discomfort, it is so worth it. So what has eating slowly got to do with feeling more connected to your body? Well, when you are eating slowly, you are NOT eating fast - and speed eating is a surefire way to check out of your body. It’s as if you have to drug yourself just to sit next to your wounded self in the canteen of life. It’s like Back to the Future where George McFly is the wounded self, Biff the bully is the inner critic, and Marty (Michael J Fox) is the part of you that is eating slowly to sit by George. Reconnection Point 2: Evolutionary Psychology Evolutionary psychology is, in a nutshell, the part of our brain left over from our cavedwelling ancestors: our Cavebrain. Fight or flight is one example - you switch into lightning fast reaction mode if you see a dangerous driver or your child runs into the road. The great news is that you can use your Cavebrain to feel more body acceptance. Reconnection Point 3: Possibility Shifting People have been in struggle for years and years around their health. Limiting beliefs are the culprit - but simply telling yourself to ignore them. The truth is that these beliefs are a faulty coping mechanism. In this episode I go into more details on this.

Top of many people's health goals is weight loss. The problem with this is that this perfectly useful measure of health has been corrupted by the diet and beauty industries, who have injected harsh unrealistic expectations into the mix, along with a nice toxic dose of body shame. Actor Rebel Wilson's story around her weight loss departs from virtually every other celeb's yo yo dieting, and she has a lot to teach us about the difference between toxic perfectionism and healthy health goals. There are two distinct reasons that I am guessing that underlie Rebel's sustainable weight change Find out what they are in this episode. Journaling for this topic: Write down all the reasons you have to lose weight. Now put them in order of internal importance. For example, if you have written ‘to ease joint pain’ and then ‘to fit into my favourite dress’ then easing joint pain must come before the dress, because it impacts your life on a deeper level. Think health, think ease of movement, think what else you could do that you cannot nowadays. Now look at the top and bottom reasons and notice if your motivation has shifted.

Both express polar opposite ways of looking at the power of food, politically and legally. But curiously, together they express the same misunderstanding about food…one that causes misery for millions of people today. Find out more in this episode... RESOURCES The Cravings Anti-Challenge Starring Albert Einstein, The Minions & your Inner Food Rebel. This free 3-day adventure reveals how even the most dyed-in-the-wool food rebel can disrupt their cravings and walk away from sugar - without willpower, self-discipline or even self-belief. Discover: The strategy I stole from Einstein (no physics degree required) that sidesteps struggle and is a backdoor to saying no to sugar - even when you have zero willpower What anti-cravings Minions are Who your Inner Food Rebel is, and how to enlist their help to transform making healthy choices into kick-ass empowerment How to channel Harry Potter to walk away from any junk food What Is An Anti-Challenge? One of the main problems for compulsive eaters is that they are caught between two opposing energies within them (all this gets explained during the 3 sessions). One of these is their Inner Food Rebel. And there's nothing a rebel loves more than disrupting rules that are imposed onto it. And that is kind of the definition of a challenge! We are going to be craftier and more subtle than to try to dictate to ourselves :) In anti-challenge, we ditch willpower and self-belief in order to tap into sit down for peace talks with our self-sabotage...while tying its shoelaces under the table! Starts Monday 26th September This free anti-challenge is a mix of 3 Zoom calls and other materials, such as audio visualisations. Don't worry if you cannot attend all of the calls, because each session will be recorded.

EC 199: Fundamental Fatribution Error
Heads Up Here’s the link to access the talk on Carrot or Stick? Neither! On Wed 3rd August at 8pm UK (3pm Eastern) What is The Fundamental Fatribution Error? I made this term up. It is a corrupted version of the fundamental attribution error (FAE), which is the mistake we make when we for example blame others' bad driving on personality defects, but if we cut someone up in traffic it is usually down to factors outside our control. Most people believe that they are above averagely skilled drivers. The fundamental fatribution error (FFE) is when you weaponise the FAE against yourself, and is exemplified by self attack statements like "I'm so fat because It's so undisciplined" In this episode you will find out why the FFE is so toxic AND so strangely comforting…as well as an alternative. About The Carrot and Stick Talk on Wed 3rd August: We all know about carrots and sticks when it comes to human motivation. Punish or reward yourself (or get someone else to do it for you) and you are sorted…right? Wrong. This Wednesday at 8pm UK (3pm EST) I will be talking about why I don't think either really work for stopping binge eating or freeing yourself from junk food addictions like sugar. For anyone with a history of food compulsion, the stick will trigger their Inner Food Rebel, a force 1000 times more powerful than any goals you might set. I have found that carrot does work SOMETIMES for me…but only under certain conditions. And it has never really landed with any of my clients. So…what can we replace the carrot and the stick with? Something deeper. Something that always works. Something that connects you to a more powerful way of living. Something that is totally transferable to other areas you need motivation for. This talk will be live in the Eating Coach Facebook group. If you are not already a member, join here: Harriet Morris info (at) theshiftinside dot com

EC 199: Fundamental Fatribution Error

EC 199: Fundamental Fatribution Error
Heads Up Here’s the link to access the talk on Carrot or Stick? Neither! On Wed 3rd August at 8pm UK (3pm Eastern) What is The Fundamental Fatribution Error? I made this term up. It is a corrupted version of the fundamental attribution error (FAE), which is the mistake we make when we for example blame others' bad driving on personality defects, but if we cut someone up in traffic it is usually down to factors outside our control. Most people believe that they are above averagely skilled drivers. The fundamental fatribution error (FFE) is when you weaponise the FAE against yourself, and is exemplified by self attack statements like "I'm so fat because It's so undisciplined" In this episode you will find out why the FFE is so toxic AND so strangely comforting…as well as an alternative. About The Carrot and Stick Talk on Wed 3rd August: We all know about carrots and sticks when it comes to human motivation. Punish or reward yourself (or get someone else to do it for you) and you are sorted…right? Wrong. This Wednesday at 8pm UK (3pm EST) I will be talking about why I don't think either really work for stopping binge eating or freeing yourself from junk food addictions like sugar. For anyone with a history of food compulsion, the stick will trigger their Inner Food Rebel, a force 1000 times more powerful than any goals you might set.

EC 198: What Arrival Teaches Us About Compulsive Eating

EC 198: What Arrival Teaches Us About Compulsive Eating
Clip discussed in this episode Heads up: Grab your link for the 5 Minute Appetite Suppressant Session here: One of my favourite films is Arrival, starring Amy Adams and Jeremy Renner. But it's not just a great movie - it is a brilliant metaphor for ending binge eating. Adams plays Louise Banks, a linguist who the army have asked to help do a bit of translation. Alien translation. Yup, there's a egg-shaped UFO floating in the air, and it's all down to her to find out why. In this clip, we see Louise take off her protective suit in order to really communicate properly with the aliens. Everyone is freaked out, but no harm comes to her. In this clip, the protective suit is emotional eating, and the aliens are life. The beautiful, messy, uncertain life you miss out on when you keep yourself finished via binges and junk food. Louise takes a risk and realises she CAN get to know the aliens better. Are you willing to take the risk of managing your life without food? What might your life look like without food compulsion? RESOURCES Eating Coach Facebook group 5 Minute Appetite Suppressant Session This Thursday 28th July Get access here: Imagine if there were an appetite suppressant that was 100% natural, with zero side effects. One that is also a digestive aid and can help reduce stress. The only drawback is that you need to sit and do nothing for 5 minutes while the pill takes effect. Oh yes, and it's free too. Q: Would you take it? A: Why the heck wouldn't you? Something 100% natural that makes you eat less, with a price tag of £0. At this point you may be thinking: What's the catch, Harriet? And there is one - but it's a catch in the same way that you need to learn to read in order to enjoy The Harry Potter series. A 'catch' that you'll be glad exists. Ok, so the catch, the big reveal - is that this appetite suppressant is…. Slow eating. Ta-dah! Confused? Disappointed? Yes Harriet, I’m Totally Confused What if I told you that eating fast blocks satiety (fullness) signals to your brain. Your stomach can’t really know it has had food if it’s coming in too fast - and your body cannot properly digest and use the nutrients in the food if you have not chewed it properly. This is a bit like a quiet drink in a cosy pub that suddenly gets overwhelmed by 20 party goers. How well would you be able to get to know each of the new arrivals? Yes Harriet, I’m Pretty Disappointed What if I told you that eating fast puts your body into a state of stress, which triggers the release of cortisol - the fat storage hormone which is responsible for millions of people's central obesity AKA belly fat. Central obesity is one indicator that you could be starting down the path to type II diabetes. So maybe the point of slow eating is to avoid eating your way to a big tummy and a big health problem down the line. Now, what if I told you that there was a easier-than-you-think way to get started with this thing that you assume is too hard and undervalue in order to justify your perception of its difficulty? The answer is to get started in five minute increments. The answer is to turn slow eating into a game, thereby removing all the pressure. The answer is to leverage the power of a tribe to motivate you. The answer is to attend The Eating Coach Zoom session on Thursday 28th July at 8pm UK time. It is free, but there will be no recording. This is only for people who take the trouble to attend. It is a highly experiential session. (Can't make it?

In it you will…. * Understand the science behind why slow eating is such a powerful appetite suppressant and digestive aid, not to mention anti-stress technique * Discover two simple and fun slow eating games that work with zero effort on your part What you will NOT have to do: No need to eat slowly for more than five minutes No need to eat on camera (you can turn it off if you like - your choice) Bring a piece of fruit or salad veg (eg apple, banana, cucumber, celery etc), a plate and a knife This session is free.

EC 197: The Greatest Moment of Your Life
Get your link for the 5 Minute Appetite Suppressant Session on 28 July here. It’s free, so no excuses! “This is the greatest moment of your life, and you’re off somewhere, missing it!” Guess the movie this quote comes from. Now guess the lesson it has for you reclaiming your life from food. Thirdly, guess what that quote has in common with this one from Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince: “It was, he thought, the difference between being dragged into the arena to face a battle to the death and walking into the arena with your head held high. Some people, perhaps, would say that there was little to choose between the two ways, but Dumbledore knew - and so do I, thought Harry, with a rush of fierce pride, and so did my parents - that there was all the difference in the world.” No idea? Then listen in and I will reveal all.
