On this episode of the Chasing Clarity Podcast, I team up with Lyle McDonald to unpack everything you need to know about cravings: what cravings really are, why they happen, and what actually works to manage them.

TOPICS COVERED:

WHY DO WE EXPERIENCE CRAVINGS?
THE MOST PREVALENT MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT THE CAUSES OF CRAVINGS
MISCONCEPTION #1: CRAVINGS ARE A SIGN OF A NUTRIENT DEFICIENCY
MISCONCEPTION #2: CRAVINGS ARE CAUSED BY DIETARY RESTRAINT OR FOOD RESTRICTION
THE BENEFIT OF USING A MORE STRUCTURED EATING APPROACH EARLY ON & RESTRICTING TRIGGER FOODS DURING A FAT LOSS PHASE
THE MOST EFFECTIVE EVIDENCE-BASED WAYS TO REDUCE CRAVINGS
MINDFULNESS & ACCEPTANCE-BASED STRATEGIES
FLOATING LEAF VISUALIZATION
URGE SURFING
MINDSET SHIFTS TO REDUCE CRAVINGS
REAPPRAISAL: SHIFTING HOW YOU THINK ABOUT A CRAVING
FOCUSING ON THE “LATER” MINDSET OVER THE “NOW” MINDSET
STRATEGIC PLANNING- IMPLEMENTATION INTENTIONS

If you’re tired of feeling out of control with food, this conversation is for you.

Hit play for practical strategies, real talk, and actionable advice you can use to take back control of your eating for good.
