Episode 10: Your Relationship With Food

We all have a personal and unique relationship with food. Research, as presented by the National Eating Disorder Association, suggests that up to 50 percent of Americans have a “disordered” relationship with exercise, their body and with food. While that does NOT mean that half of all Americans have what we typically think of as a clinical “eating disorder,” such as anorexia, bulimia or binge eating disorder, it does indicate that a lot of us have what I would call “a less than positive relationship” with food, with exercise and with our bodies. THAT should come as no surprise! What about you and YOUR relationship with food? In this episode, we’ll explore what having a relationship with food is about, how your personal relationship with food developed, and what that relationship might suggest for improving that relationship. Of course, as you’ve heard me say many times, as our relationship with food improves, so does our relationship with ourself and our relationships with others. When you make improvements in any of those relationship categories, the others will naturally improve! I have a suggestion at the end of this episode that will shed some very interesting light on your unique relationship with food! Listen and find out what that is!
