Hey there sister friend!

I hope your week is off to a great start!

Mine? Well, let's just hope it's better than yesterday.

Yesterday, my 5 year old had a full blown melt down. The type of meltdown where there is absolutely nothing you can do as a mama, but hug, count and wait for it to pass. Yep, I nearly had a meltdown trying to calm him from his own meltdown.

But right in the middle of this situation I realized that his sweet little self just needed to pause and take a time out to reflect on what it is that he actually needed.

He needed to HALT.

He needed to process.

He needed to feel.

Are you facing challenging emotions? Do those feelings cause you to turn to food or to restrict your food?

Oh girl, how I can relate!

Disordered eating isn't about food.

Disordered eating isn't about body image.

Disordered eating is an attempt to deal with emotions that manifest into idols and obsessions over time when left unprocessed. It's feelings left unfelt. It's coping gone wrong....

But there is good news! Having an unhealthy relationship with food is a learned behavior. Which means it can be unlearned when you choose to release it.

If you find yourself in meltdown mode, turning to food (or turning away from it) then Episode 112 is going to bless you so very much!

On today's show, I share the H.A.L.T Method with you and how you can leverage this mindfulness technique to help you find freedom from food controlling your life.

I can't wait for your listen!
