Are you struggling to understand if your child is an emotional or stress eater and how to deal with it? In this episode, I'll be sharing a three-step method to help you understand the causes of emotional and stress eating in children, find better ways to soothe their emotional needs through mindful eating, and break the cycle of emotional and stress eating. Emotional and stress eating are patterns of behavior that occur more than once a week, such as coping with emotions or stress through food, sneaking and hiding food, feeling shame or guilt after eating, experiencing cravings for food out of the blue, or constantly asking for food even when you're not hungry. To understand the causes of emotional and stress eating, try to understand why food is their go-to and help them find other ways to cope with their emotions and manage stress, such as exercise or mindfulness. Mindful eating can also be an effective tool in helping your child regulate their emotions and stress eating. Finally, break the cycle of emotional and stress eating and build awareness around healthy habits. With patience and understanding, you can guide your child toward a healthy and balanced relationship with food. ____________________________ Join our FREE Facebook support group now: Link: https://www.facebook.com/groups/OverweightKids/ Or search on FB: Overweight Kids & Childhood Obesity - Weight Loss Support If you would like more tips on how to help your child build a healthy relationship with food subscribe to our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@aizikbar Bar's book: O.M.G my kid is overweight - bit.ly/omgoverweight More about Bar's programs and services - https://baraizik.com/

7 things  that will keep your child from getting on board with healthy living or losing weight and how to approach it differently: Trying to convince your child why it's important!

Putting a child on a diet that they won't be able to maintain long-term! In your efforts to get your child healthy, you can't become emotionally involved. Try new foods, and invite them to exercise with you. The more you worry about your child's response, the more stressed your child will be. It's not about losing weight, it's about losing bad habits.
