    Make Peace With Food Minisode: Why We Eat At Night?
    Apr 25 2024

    In this minisode, Sherry Shaban delves into the common and often troubling habit of nighttime snacking. She begins by explaining the environmental and associative factors that contribute to this behavior, emphasizing that understanding these patterns is the first step to breaking them. Sherry offers a new perspective by distinguishing between association and addiction, shifting the emphasis from powerlessness to a more empowered stance.

    Sherry shares her personal experiences and reflects on the complex emotional and physiological triggers that lead to late-night eating. She identifies environmental cues, emotional stressors, and the nervous system's role in perpetuating this cycle. Rather than rushing toward immediate solutions, Sherry encourages listeners to explore their behavioral patterns with curiosity and openness.

    As the minisode unfolds, Sherry Shaban illuminates key aspects of nighttime snacking and its implications for our well-being. She aligns this unwanted eating behavior with both emotional triggers and the body's cries for nourishment. By teasing apart the fabric of this complex issue, she hypothesizes that craving nighttime snacks could stem from a multitude of sources, whether it's a stressful job, emotional avoidance, boredom, or simply not eating enough during the day.

    Stay tuned for next week's minisode, where Sherry will share strategies to overcome nighttime snacking. Don't miss out on the opportunity to join the Make Peace with Food community and access valuable resources!

  • Make Peace With Food Minisode: How To Stop The Food Obsession?

    Make Peace With Food Minisode: How To Stop The Food Obsession?
    Apr 12 2024

    In this Minisode, Sherry Shaban discusses food obsession, eating behavior, and the nervous system. The episode begins with Sherry's personal confrontation with her excessive concern over diet and nutritional choices, which evolved into a fear-driven preoccupation with food. This honest sharing of her own experiences serves to lay the groundwork for an engaging discussion on how our eating behaviors can become dysregulated.

    Sherry identifies food obsession as a universal yet often misunderstood challenge, intimately tied to our autonomic nervous system's state. She explains that the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems play critical roles in our eating habits, often acting as the unseen force behind behaviors like binge eating. In the protection mode, our bodies may conserve energy and prompt survival responses, such as cravings for high-energy food, further complicating our dietary patterns.

    The key takeaway from this conversation is the profound impact that chronic dieting and negative self-talk can have on perpetuating an unhealthy relationship with food. Sherry advocates for a shift from focusing on food control to understanding and nurturing the nervous system as a path toward healing and breaking the cycle of unwanted eating behaviors.
