Publisher's Summary

If you've experienced physical, sexual, or emotional abuse, your past trauma could affect how you care for yourself today. You may struggle with difficult thoughts and feelings, and reach for food to soothe your emotions when feeling sad, anxious, or stressed. You aren't alone.

Healing Emotional Eating for Trauma Survivors offers an innovative, trauma-informed approach to overcoming emotional eating using the principles of mindfulness, self-compassion, and neuroscience. With this gentle guide, you will gain a deeper understanding of your trauma, and discover alternative ways to soothe stress and difficult emotions when they show up. You'll also learn to shift your focus away from your weight, so you can cultivate a more loving connection with your body as you heal.

With this compassionate guide, you'll discover ways to: calm your anxious brain and body; safely process your emotions; transform self-punishment into self-compassion; practice self-forgiveness and overcome body shame; take your power back from trigger foods; and create an emotionally safe sanctuary with friends, family, and home. Most importantly, you'll find the support you need to end the cycle of emotional eating and release the weight of your trauma—so you can live with a greater sense of freedom and vitality.

Same as every other self help book out there

When I saw that this book was released in 2023, I really hoped there’d be some new wisdom or techniques. But sadly, this book regurgitates the same dull content to deal with emotional eating that authors have used for the past 40+ years. If I had a dollar for every book that tells me to implement a hunger scale, do some deep breathing and speak to a professional, I’d be very wealthy. How do they get away with selling this rubbish over and over again and people act like it’s novel and ground breaking?

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
