Emotional Eating Workbook: CBT Exercises for Overcoming Comfort Eating | Anti Diet Approach | Digitally fillable and printable.
£15.99
"I eat my feelings, I just can't help myself. I come home after a long stressful shift and I work nights sometimes so I often skip meals. I'm just so tired and stressed when I come home but I know that crisps, chocolate and wine are waiting for me. In the moment I feel better.. but the guilt kicks in afterwards."
Does this sound like you?
Many people struggle with emotional eating or 'comfort eating' and use food as a self-soothing mechanism for strong emotions.
The difficulty with emotional eating, is that our society shames people for comfort eating, and then pushes them towards dieting or restricting food in an attempt to curb food intake or counter-act emotional eating. This approach actually exacerbates it and often leads to further eating problems (like binge eating disorder, for example).
The approach we take in this Workbook (and the exact approach I use with my coaching clients) is to first increase your emotional awareness through mindfulness and meditation and then help you understand the purpose of even the most negative emotions you feel. We then look at how to build alternative coping strategies to meet your emotional needs and finish off by setting life goals instead of weight-based goals.
In taking this approach, you will no longer feel shamed for comfort eating, or destroy your relationship with food further by dieting. Instead you will feel free of food anxiety, empowered to meet your emotional needs and able to take control of your life path.
_________________________________________________________________________
This workbook is packed with coaching exercises based on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help you better understand the causes of emotional eating and put in place effective alternative, more effective coping strategies for difficult emotions.
This workbook is split into three parts:
1. Understanding Emotional Eating
2. Developing Emotional Awareness
3. Developing Coping Strategies for Difficult Emotions
My approach to Emotional Eating is ‘Anti-Diet’, which means I do not view emotional eating as an ‘eating problem’. Research shows that responding to emotional eating by restricting food intake increases the risk of binge eating and so this is something I strongly advise against when working to overcome emotional eating.
Instead, the focus throughout this workbook will be to become more emotionally aware that we can accurately label our emotions, identify our underlying needs and meet them effectively.
By taking the time to work through the 43 pages of this workbook you will:
--> Understand why dieting or food restriction is NOT a solution to emotional eating (and why it exacerbates it)
--> Understand why you comfort eat and how it's benefiting you (yes, really)
--> Increase your emotional awareness - you'll be able to accurately label what you're feeling and identify the cause of it
--> Develop effective, alternative coping strategies for coping with strong emotions
This workbook is packed with useful ‘cheat sheets’ and worksheets.
