Welcome back to the start of our fifth season of recordings and how we’ve missed you!

A brand-new season deserves a weighty subject and so we launch with the multi-faceted and potentially contentious issue that is healing a negative relationship with food.

In fact, such are the complexities that we deemed it worthy of a two-parter!

It’s with frightening regularity that we speak to both male and female clients who have experienced an unhealthy relationship with food at some point in their lives. This could encompass
anything from compulsive calorie checking to demonising certain foods that, if consumed, are accompanied by feelings of huge shame and guilt.

But food can’t be avoided – we need it for our very survival and therefore the relationship we have with it can affect our health, well being and happiness. With the often-damaging messages fed to us from a deeply pervasive diet culture, a careful consideration of what we put in our mouths can so easily cross over to obsessive or dangerously restrictive practices.

In part one, we delve into our own historical struggles with food, discussing their deep-rooted origins and its changing patterns in more recent years. We highlight what behaviours and habits can contribute to a poor food relationship and why it’s so important to challenge these in the pursuit of the ultimate goal….food freedom!
