The speaker discovered this book while researching emotional eating, and applying its principles, along with mindfulness and self-compassion, was a turning point in her recovery.
But the real turning point I think for me was discovering the book intuitive eating by Evelyn Tribalyn and Elise Ress and I know you had Evelyn on the podcast before and she's a friend of both of ours and just wonderful person and I discovered the book because I was starting to research my own book that I never ended up writing about emotional eating because at the time I identified as an emotional eater felt like you know I'm just out of control with food whenever I get access to certain foods I just eat them in this emotional way where I can't stop and what's the deal with that what are the origins of that and so through that research I discovered intuitive eating I brought that into my own therapy with a therapist who was really more specialized in like anxiety, somatic experiencing sensory motor psychotherapy and a lot of mindfulness and so that's where I really first discovered meditation and self-compassion and I think intuitive eating just sort of plugged right in with those practices and made a lot of sense to me both as someone who had been an intuitive eater growing up and sort of practiced that for 20 years in my life and as someone who was newly discovering self-compassion and meditation and mindfulness like it just really resonated with where I was.
