Working With An Emotional Eating Coach

By Joshua Foster


Someone who struggles with their weight will probably have tried just about every diet on the market. Diets can work for some people. You can find programs that are healthy and successful. However, it is the mental approach and the bad habits which are difficult to break. An emotional eating coach can be a good option to invest in when you are struggling like this.

You shall find that this is more of a lifestyle that you will get used to, rather than a diet. It is the mindset that will begin to change. You will work on the psychological aspect, asking yourself more about whether you are really hungry. You will find alternative ways in which you are able to cope with your emotions.

This is a habit and not easy to break, but there are methods to turn to which the coach will help you feel more comfortable with. You start to work with more practical aspects, and this can be a hobby that you enjoy doing. Therefore, you will begin to focus on what you are doing. At the same time you get enjoyment and satisfaction from this.

It is important to know what triggers you when you feel that you need to eat. When you feel these emotions come up, it is important to have something planned. It could be meditation or a source of mindfulness. You can have music downloaded on your phone. It means that wherever you are, you will be prepared for this.

You won't have to run into the nearest coffee shop because you know how to cope with this. Taking a few deep breaths, followed by a brief guided meditation with background music can ease your anxiety levels. You will eventually feel more calm and relaxed and realize that you are not actually hungry.

A person like this may have to go through intense therapy with a counselor who is more specialized. It is not always easy, but it will pay off at the end of the day. Of course, they still need to go to the coach because they will have the habit that they need to break. Even though they have been through this type of therapy, they are still left with the addiction.

The mindful aspect to losing weigh has been very effective over the last couple of years. Most people with these sorts of problems have tried one diet after the next. But it is the mental aspect that sets them back every time. The mindful approach is so helpful because it trains your brain to help you know when you are hungry.

You will begin to ask yourself whether you really need that chocolate or whether you are simply going to eat it because it is a habit. Of course, it can take time to get to this point. The coach is there to offer support. You will check in every week and you will take note of your improvements, and notice how you have progressed over this time. You will also begin to discover what areas you need to work on. The relationship between the client and the coach are also most important.
