to find out more about dismantling your fear of hunger.
Is this a problem for you? In this podcast episode of The Eating Coach, we dive into this topic - one that I have not heard discussed often. I talk openly about my own anxiety around my appetite, and what happened when I actually decided to experience hunger intentionally. I was very surprised at what I discovered.
Part One: Why You Might Have a Fear of Hunger
- Childhood experiences. Food was used to give adults power over you.
- Food as a way to Numb yourself out
- In both scenarios, hunger can act as a very persuasive PR tool being used by your child rebel or the part of you that feels it is essential to numb out
- I managed overeating a long time ago, but lockdown created a very powerful PR for my compulsion because I was doing too much. I dissolved Some key relationships which created lots of fear. I perceived genuine hunger which was not always genuenuine. about managing my life
Part Two: What Happened When I Faced My Fear of Hunger
I realised that hunger is not a fire, it is a tide
I realised that hunger is plastic
I discuss the role that ghrelin (the hunger hormone plays) here and the evolutionary reasoning behind the plastic nature of hunger

Ideas for you to get going on your fear of hunger
