$35 USD for lifetime access
We’ve all been there…
Anxious, disassociated on the couch, reaching for another slice of pizza or another sip of soda, not out of hunger, but an overwhelming desire to feel better.
What usually follows is a barrage of self-criticism: “I’m such a loser…”, “Why am I doing this again!?”, “I keep sabotaging my progress!”.
A rush of guilt kicks in, and we stuff our faces with even more food just to soothe the pain.
Cravings are not a sign of weakness. They are profound messages from our body, pointing to what it needs.
In this webinar, you will learn to listen to these messages with curiosity rather than shame, seeing them as a gateway to deeper self-awareness and healing.
This webinar is for you if…
You often snack or binge eat unhealthy foods when stress and emotions run high.
You're drawn to developing a deeper, more holistic relationship with food and your body.
You’re curious about how different foods impact your nervous system, mood & energy
You often skip meals, ignoring hunger cues when you're feeling stressed or overwhelmed.
You're looking for sustainable ways to manage your food cravings without strict dieting.
You're ready to shift from feeling guilty about eating to exploring food with curiosity and compassion.
Beyond Guilt:
What Your Food Cravings Really Mean
At the heart of our cravings lies an unspoken fear—that without these foods, we will have to face emotions or situations that may feel unbearable.
This can lead to a cycle of suppressing our true feelings and needs with food as a temporary salve.
Beneath the surface of these cravings are hidden feelings & sensations signaling unresolved conflicts and unmet needs.
In this webinar, we'll delve into the roots of these cravings and introduce practices to help you reconnect with your body's true signals.
I’ll guide you toward a more present and nourishing relationship with food, helping you eat healthier without the shame and guilt.
Some of what
you’ll learn:
Understand cravings as intelligent messages signaling unexpressed emotions, unmet needs, and unprocessed stress.
Learn how specific foods affect your nervous system, mood, and energy.
Discover the significant difference between unconsciously feeding cravings and consciously choosing what to eat.
Start integrating somatic practices into your eating habits to break the cycle of reflexively eating unhealthy foods.
Meet Your Guide
I am a trained trauma therapist, and have personally recovered from a 15+ year eating disorder, so I know very well how triggering food can be.
Way before I began studying and working with trauma I had a full-time private practice that was 100% nutrition-based.
I learned from this how biochemical our moods are and how much our blood sugar plays a part in our ability to think clearly, have capacity for difficult moments, and regulate after stressful events.
In our house we have a rule that we discuss nothing of importance if we are hungry or tired.
We see food as a powerful ally to help us become embodied when experiencing stress or recovering from trauma, rather than something we use to numb and avoid our feelings with.
Food is safety.
Food is one of the first things our bodies connect to after the traumatizing experience of birth.
As babies, we were comforted with breastmilk — a warm, nutritious liquid to settle us after a wild and strenuous journey.
It’s no wonder we have such a connection to food as comfort.
Through the lens of somatics, we can see and feel how our food cravings and choices are a direct response to our triggers, moods, and trauma responses.
As we become more embodied, our cravings transform into healthier choices, and our nervous system gets nourished.
This makes our bodies more resilient and open to move through both life’s blessings and hardships.
