Are you being fully present for your own life? Or are you letting it pass while you distract yourself with other things? 

When we are accustomed to using food to numb or neutralize negative emotions, we are failing to learn how to process our negative emotions in a productive way.

They are in fact - temporary!

In this episode I dive into what it means to buffer emotions with food and how we can become fully present to experience emotions without using food to cope.
