Staying Well During the Holidays

🍽️ In this episode we zoom out from food rules and look at the bigger picture of nourishment during the holidays, including connection, presence, nervous system safety, and why being fed goes far beyond what’s on your plate.🧠 I talk through why routine disruption is not a health crisis, why food has no moral value, and how the 80/20 reality supports long term wellbeing far better than control or compensation.⚖️ We unpack weight gain anxiety, the thermic effect of food, and why a few indulgent meals do not equal long term fat gain or metabolic damage.🌿 I explore the psychology of eating during stressful or triggering family environments, why regulation comes before nutrition, and how stress drives extremes around food rather than lack of willpower.🫁 You’ll learn simple five minute somatic tools to calm the nervous system, alongside gentle movement strategies that support digestion, blood sugar, and energy without needing a full routine.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
