The link between Trauma and Emotional Eating

Do you find that you tend to turn to food whenever you are feeling down? Emotional eating can be triggered by past trauma as it is a way for us to escape from and redirect any negative thought back to an area of positivity. Emotional eaters don’t tend to function well in the present as they are still living their past traumas.Many trauma victims may rely on food to play out the role of the abuser by forcing food down their throat which imitates perpetuating harm to the body and the victim role is represented as the helpless role of receiving the abuse. This allows the victim to maintain the recurrent events of the trauma whilst also enabling themselves to dissociate, distract and then to soothe the pain through their food obsession.In this podcast episode, I will be sharing by own experiences as well as some tips on how to control emotional eating.If you would like to take your self development to the next level then please sign up to my FREE 12 week self discovery plan here: https://victim2victor.net/free-12-week-self-discovery-plan/More information about me can be found via links here: https://linktr.ee/healing.journeyyIf you are interested in my book 'Victim 2 Victor', it is now available on audio and can be found on:Audible: adbl.co/3akVNCu Amazon: amzn.to/37jFt2WDownload the transcript here: https://victim2victor.net/the-link-between-trauma-and-emotional-eating-2/Send us Fan MailConnect with me: Take the diagnostic tool kit to stop repeating patterns in your relationships: https://victim2victor.net/the-chemistry-trap/Book a call with me: http://calendly.com/v2vhealingjourneyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/victim2victor_anuverma/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anuvermav2vAccess all resources: https://linktr.ee/healing.journeyy
