Nobody Taught You How to Be Bored - And Now You Overeat Because of It // Q&A Part 4

from Emotional Eating Unwrapped · host Alana Kessler

In this episode, Alana and Brittny unpack why food can feel so hard to manage when you are not physically hungry, but you are overwhelmed, bored, restless, or emotionally uncomfortable. They explore why eating can become fast relief, how food acts as a grounding tool for the nervous system, and why modern life makes it harder to sit with stillness without reaching for something.
