185. Emotional Eating at Night

from Understanding Disordered Eating: Eating Disorder Recovery and Body Image Healing

For so many of us, nighttime feels like stepping into a different version of ourselves. One that feels "fine" all day, but starts to unravel the moment the sun goes down. One who can't stop thinking about snacks, who wanders into the kitchen on autopilot, who feels out of control around food in ways that never show up at noon. It can feel confusing, frustrating, even shameful. Listen to the full episode for the full unpacking and for the practical steps that can help you finally feel at peace when the night comes. Tweetable Quotes "Your body might not be confused or just randomly anxious. It might actually be undernourished." - Rachelle Heinemann "Sometimes we get caught up in what we call healthy habits… and these are like the perfect conditions to breed bingey eating or nighttime food anxiety." - Rachelle Heinemann "At night, usually that's where all the leftovers emotionally show up." - Rachelle Heinemann "Emotional hunger is not fake hunger, it's just a metaphoric hunger." - Rachelle Heinemann "If you're hungry, whether it's metaphoric or otherwise, you're hungry for something." - Rachelle Heinemann Resources Grab my Journal Prompts Here!
