It really is convenient for us, in today's times especially, to freely choose any type of food we want to eat at any given time. It's quick and easy to order anything and have it delivered to your doorstep, if it's a given option. While this certainly feeds the appetite more, is it really helping us mentally in a way that's healthy for us?

Being mindful of what we eat has always been a precaution taught to us from an early age. But will consuming the food we always take comfort in really impact us in a negative way? Or is there something more profound that we are yet to learn behind that? And where does trauma come into play behind all this?

In today's exciting episode, we explore how food and its relationship with the body affects us emotionally and mentally, ultimately shaping our understanding of our consumption behaviors. We are truly honored to converse with a best-selling author that brought us Nourishing Wisdom and The Slow Down Diet, and the founder of the Institute For The Psychology Of Eating, Marc David.
