Breaking Free from the Cycle of Emotional Eating

Breaking Free from the Cycle of Emotional Eating

Author: Achieving Your Best September 9, 2024 Duration: 32:37

We often refer to food as fuel or medicine, but food can also have emotional ties. Emotional eating can be a major obstacle between feeling stuck and finding freedom from the restrictions of a diet mentality that effect your relationship with food. Ryleigh, Cassie, and Anthony unpack ways to help you take care of yourself and your feelings in practical ways and walk through an exercise to help you get to a deeper understanding of how you process your emotions.


Tired of sifting through conflicting diet trends and exaggerated fitness claims? Practical Nutrition cuts through the noise with grounded, evidence-based conversations. This podcast is hosted by Registered Dietitians Cassie Dimmick, Amanda Rathbun, Anthony Hales, and Ryleigh Clark from the Achieving Your Best Nutrition and Training Center in Springfield, Missouri. They’re joined by local KY3 News journalist Maria Neider, who brings a curious outsider’s perspective to the table. Together, they tackle the complicated world of food and wellness without the jargon or sales pitches. Each episode feels like a candid discussion with knowledgeable friends who have seen it all in their clinical and coaching practices. You’ll hear practical takeaways that can be applied to real life, whether it’s deciphering a new food label, navigating social gatherings, or building a sustainable movement routine. The focus is on long-term health strategies over quick fixes, all delivered with a dose of Midwestern pragmatism. Listen for a refreshingly straightforward take on what actually works, making this podcast a reliable resource for anyone feeling overwhelmed by the health and fitness industry’s constant chatter.
