The following are four important clues for a healthier relationship with eating:
1. Free your emotions: Food ingestion could easily be a way to “stuff down” undesirable emotions, such as fear, anger, anxiety, loneliness, guilt and re- sentment. However, using food to numb emotions deprives us from getting in touch with the cause of the emotion and from accepting and adjusting to what is bothering us. Recognition, commitment, and action-taking are ways to free an emotion so we don’t eat it.
2. Find Purpose: When you seek out your comfort food, ask yourself, is it physi- cal hunger, boredom or emptiness? Be conscious of your use of food to fi ll up an unfulfi lled desire or a sense of empti- ness. Don’t turn food into a way to fi ll up either time or your mouth. Once you discover the emotion, use the awareness to fi nd a purposeful long-lasting solution to the need.
3. Understand the history behind the hunger: Look back to your child- hood. What foods were used to reward/ punish you? Ice cream for good grades? Sweets to soothe your aches and pains? Have you continued to play out the same rituals? If that is the case, what are you willing to do to turn the rituals into workable value-driven ones?
4. Let social gatherings guide you: Gather- ing around the table with loved ones is a stress reliever. It can also lead to over- eating. It’s easy to overindulge while the attention is centered around conversa- tions and people. It is also easier to eat just because the food is available. Ask yourself, am I uncomfortable or anxious right now? Am I eating out of discom- fort? Be mindful of your actions and always check with your value system in order to make decisions that are aligned with it.
