Description

Have you ever noticed that your comfort foods and your fear foods are often the same? 

In this episode, we explore the Safety Paradox - the confusing experience of seeking safety in food while simultaneously feeling unsafe with that very same food. Through nervous system science and practical strategies, you'll understand why this happens and how to work with it rather than against it.

What You'll Discover:

• Why your nervous system turns to food for safety and comfort

• How past food experiences create conflicting responses in your body

• Practical nervous system regulation techniques you can use anywhere

• The two-part approach to resolving the Safety Paradox

If you've ever felt torn between craving and fearing the same foods, this episode will help you understand that your responses make complete sense - and show you a path forward.
