Episode 40 - Eat, Drink and Be Merry?

How was the holiday period for you?  Most of us are encouraged to "eat, drink and be merry"  but how merry do over-eating and heavy drinking make you feel?  Many people report feeling sluggish and sick after a season of over-indulgence. If you are sick and tired of feeling sick and tired, then you need to listen to today's episode.   Antonia discusses the links between binge eating and the misuse of alcohol. There are clear similarities between the two issues, in terms of causes and behaviors. For many people who have stopped drinking, issues around food can come to the fore. Binge eating might not have been a problem when large amounts of alcohol were being consumed but when the heavy drinking stops, food is used as a substitute.  If binge eating is a problem for you Antonia has written two books to help you: The 10-Day Binge Eating Detox Plan and Mindfulness for Binge Eating.  Both these books are available as audiobooks, kindle, and paperback.  You can find out about these books at: https://winspress.com/books/
