About this event
Why is it that boredom, grief, anger and even joy stimulate the desire to eat?
The truth is, emotional eating is an effective tool for relieving stress. Yet, while that cookie may make you feel better in the moment, it’s not truly a solution to your emotional strain. Food can never fill the void of hard emotions. Instead, it soothes us, putting a band-aid on the wound.
There are biochemical explanations for why you crave certain foods or have an increased appetite when you’re facing emotionally challenging things. AND there are alternatives to eating that support healing mind, body and spirit. Join us for a virtual conversation with Jesse Haas, functional nutritionist and co-founder of Wellness Minneapolis and take home some strategies for breaking the emotional eating pattern in loving, joyful ways.
