Recover from Trauma and Food Struggles with Nutrition with Timothy Frie

Happy Satiated Saturday! As many of you know, I started my PhD in somatic psychology in September and just completed my first semester. 🎉While I initially wanted to research all eating disorders (which may still happen), I decided this first semester to focus on research surrounding binge eating disorders. Going through graduate school almost 15 years ago, I was often confused about why there was not a single class on nutrition. Wouldn't that be something that would be important for a therapist to at least know the basics when exploring any issue someone is navigating? How a person eats can contribute to depression, anxiety, and overall mood. When recovering from food struggles, a balance must be explored between discovering what foods feel best in your body, while not making it too important that the anxiety with food perpetuates. In this week's episode, I chat with Timothy Frie, Neuronutritionist, nutritional neuroscience researcher, and founder of the Georgia Center for Neuronutrition about: The impact of food on mental and emotional healthThe link between trauma and nutritionHow healing from trauma needs to include both nutritional and emotional supportNavigating the unknowns in nutritionThe diet industryQuestions you can journal about to raise awareness of how your current relationship with food was created You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/recover-from-trauma-and-food-struggles-with-nutritionIf you want to work together in the new year, book a free 20 minute Connect Call with me ​here​.
