Hey Friends!

How are you? No, really, how are you? It's been a hot minute, and January felt like a whole year passed by.

I am so excited to be back podcasting again and sharing some solo riffs on here about all things health, wellness, self-care, boundaries, and much much more!

Today's episode is an oldie but goodie, an IG live that I hosted last year during the holidays but very much relevant to today. Have you ever had that “nudge” to go grab a snack that only makes you feel good (inside and out) in the moment? That was me last night. Hear how to cope with this and alternative strategies to dealing with stress

💫We are chatting about all things stress eating, and navigating the urge to stress-eat. It's no secret that we live in a stressful culture that prides itself on #hustlemode. And the last two years of the pandemic have further amplified mental, emotional, and physical stress. Don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with indulging in a feel-good snack or food, but it does become a concern if you continue to reach for food as a coping mechanism at the first sign of stress or a way to combat stress. Trust me, I know from personal experience.

Tune in to learn about alternative ways to manage stress and curb emotional eating and stress-eating. Some of my fave ways to navigate stressful times and challenges are:

- Exercise. Move that body. I cannot state this enough. Happy endorphins are all the rage and give you the same high that eating a sugary snack would!

- Connect with a trusted friend or loved one. Speak to a therapist. Release those emotions in a healthy manner.

- Journal. There is a powerful release that takes place somatically whenever you share your thoughts on paper.

- Meditate. Even 5 minutes a day will work wonders for your mental health, nervous system, and emotional health. Increase this gradually every day. If you feel like you have no time to meditate, I promise you, you need to do so more!
