Emotional Eating
Episode #7 season 4: Ali Shapiro: Make a Truce with Food
If you have a troubled relationship with food, listen to this episode of Awaken Your Wise Woman as host Elizabeth Cush welcomes holistic nutritionist Ali Shapiro for a conversation about emotional eating.
“I really think food is inviting you into deeper healing, physically, emotionally, and on the soul level.”
Show Notes:
At the end of a tough day, do you curl up on the sofa with a book and a bag of chips? Does a confrontation send you on a search for chocolate, cake or a hot fudge sundae? Do you celebrate with a special meal—and maybe a second helping? What can you do if you turn to food at times when you wish you didn’t? Or wished you didn’t overdo it? In this episode of the Awaken Your Wise Woman podcast, host Elizabeth Cush, LCPC, a licensed professional therapist, founder of Progression Counseling in Annapolis, Md., and a mid-life women’s life coach, welcomes Ali Shapiro, MSOD, CHCC, a holistic nutritionist and host of the podcast Insatiable for a talk about food and emotional eating. Listen to their insights about food and eating and health at midlife and how to make a truce with food and bring it all into better balance.
