Or maybe you binge or emotionally eat, and are frustrated that you can\u2019t stop these behaviors.  Whatever your unique challenge with food may be, after a while it\u2019s hard to not come to a particular conclusion\u2026 Food has a POWER over you. It must \u2013 otherwise, you\u2019d have been able to put an end to your unwanted habits a long time ago, right?! But is it really possible for food to hold power over you?  In this episode, we explore what\u2019s going on when we feel we\u2019ve lost our power to food \u2013 and how to navigate the very real feeling of powerlessness that many of us experience when it comes to food.   Paulien, 58, has been maintaining her weight loss for the past decade, but she still doesn\u2019t feel at peace with food. She wants to be free of food fear, and instead embrace being a natural eater. But Paulien feels like food holds a certain power over her that she can\u2019t overcome. She gets lost in food, and ends up binge eating a couple of nights a week \u2013 provoking her fear that she\u2019ll gain weight back. Marc David, founder of the Institute for the Psychology of Eating, helps Paulien discover a vital new truth about owning our personal power with food, as well as: \u2705 How to identify your inner eating archetypes or \u201cvoices,\u201d  and why every voice must have a seat at the table. \u2705 Embracing the parts of ourselves we\u2019re ashamed about, and how that strengthens a healthy relationship with food. \u2705 How to transform nightly binges into conscious food rituals. \u2705 Opening up our throat chakra and speaking from our authentic self as a way of healing our eating challenges. \u2705 Why becoming the most natural YOU will lead to becoming a natural eater. This deeply spiritual conversation will provide an important reframe on the belief that food holds power over us. You\u2019ll come away inspired and feeling more compassion for yourself on this human journey.
