RYW 156: 5 Reasons Your Brain Uses Food Like a Cigarette
Description
What if food isn’t the problem, but the tool you’ve been using for stress, breaks, rewards, transitions, or alone time? In this episode, Rachel Foy draws on her former work as a smoking cessation hypnotherapist to challenge the belief that food noise is harder to overcome because food is essential. She separates food as biological fuel from food as a learned coping tool, then explains why identity, not willpower, is the shift that changes behaviour. You’ll also get two practical questions to help you notice when you’re eating for hunger and what you may actually need when food is being used for something else.
