THE MOST MAGIC TOOL TO CREATE 

 FREEDOM FROM EMOTIONAL EATING: 

THE MODEL: PART ONE



Ok beautiful friends, strap on your seat belts. Here comes one of the most helpful tools I’ve ever run across in my life.

Up until this point, we’ve been focusing on accessing self-compassion, curiosity, asking compassionate questions etc. There’s a reason for this. We need to create a foundation of self-kindness in order to work in the most effective way with our brain.
When we don’t approach our thoughts, feelings & actions with self-love & self-compassion & we default to survival brain self-judging, it limits our access to our pre-frontal cortex thinking part of our brain. 

WE NEED COMPASSION TO WORK MOST EFFECTIVELY WITH OUR BRAIN. IT’S NOT JUST A TOUCHY-FEELY IDEA. It’s a brain tool.

So, now that we have some of that established, let’s talk about the unraveling of our THOUGHT SPAGHETTI – this is often times what it occurs as—intertwined thoughts all wrapped & we have no idea what is below or why!

One of my master coaches taught us a CRAZY IMPORTANT & AMAZINGLY EFFECTIVE tool through which we unravel all the thoughts we have been compassionately observing up until this point!

LET’S JUMP IN!

THIS TOOL IS CALLED “THE MODEL”.

The model is a simple process through which we observe & analyze our thoughts. It’s based on the great work of many thought leaders & was encapsulated by my master coach, Brooke Castillo.

The first step when analyzing any thought, that we have been compassionately observing, is to separate the facts from the thoughts.

The way I’m defining facts today is literally, “just the facts ma’am”. 

The basics, broken down really simply: what occurred & what could “be agreed upon by most people”. There was no subjective observation or interpretation-it’s the basics of what happened the end.

The way I’m defining thoughts today is what our brain makes the facts mean & what story we are subconsciously, semi-consciously or consciously telling ourselves about what the facts were.

It’s critical to separate the thoughts from the facts so we can start to see the patterns that our brain has been running from the “outdated software” or thoughts we picked up from our past about how to interact with and interpret the world.

It’s critical to separate thoughts from the facts so that we can ask ourselves:
Is this thought serving me to access the best version of myself?

Is this a thought I want to continue to allow this thought to run in the background of my brain software, or do I want to work on changing that?

It’s critical to separate thoughts from the facts so that we can give our pre-frontal cortex the opportunity to actually answer those 2 questions.

CLICK THE "SCHEDULE APPOINTMENT"  BUTTON BELOW TO SCHEDULE YOUR  FREE COACHING CALL WITH ME TODAY Schedule Appointment Do you ever feel like the survival, animal part of your brain is running the show around food? Do you ever feel like if you don't eat STAT, it's a life and death emergency? Our brains are wired to think when we have hunger and we must act on it.  Our brains are generally  wired to eat food and eat as much as we can because anciently, we didn't know when our next meal was. The challenge with this today is, that when we struggle with overeating, finding our next meal is usually not a problem nor is it usually an emergency.  THE SECRET THAT CAN SHIFT YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH HUNGER IS:  HUNGER SIGNALS ARE NOT ACTUALLY AN EMERGENCY. The problem is that, when we struggle with overeating, our brains are often stuck in emergency brain "software" running in the background that is screaming to us, "hunger is ...

HELLO BEAUTIFUL SINGLE WOMEN FRIENDS!! Do you grab a pint of ice cream to fill the loneliness of doing everything in life on your own?  Do you grab a bag of chips to fill the heartache of break ups, relationships or lack thereof that didn't go the way you'd wanted them to? Do you make a batch of brownies to fill the emptiness & despair of thinking & feeling like you'll always be alone? Do you turn to muffins, bagels, & candy in the break room to deal with the stress of your leadership position at work?  Do you grab all of the above & make a couple of grilled cheese sandwiches to fill the disappointment & crippling pain of seeing your chances of having children slip away? If this is you, I get it. I've lived it. I used to turn to food to fill in the hurts of being a single woman, doing life by myself, breakups, job stress, & watching my chances of having biological children slip away. The closer I got to 40, and then ...

2 MOST COMMON REASONS YOUR BRAIN TELLS YOU TO EAT BACON WHEN YOU'RE NOT PHYSICALLY HUNGRY

DOES YOUR BRAIN TELL YOU TO EAT BACON (OR ANYTHING ELSE) WHEN YOU'RE NOT ACTUALLY PHYSICALLY HUNGRY? IF SO, HERE ARE TWO MOST COMMON REASONS: EMOTIONS & SPIKED INSULIN This morning I'm headed to Dallas.  My brain thinks I'm hungry.  My brain is trying to tell me to eat something.  I smell the bacon of the gentleman's breakfast sandwich next to me & it my brain tells me that sounds like a great idea. The thing though is, I'm not actually physically hungry.  I'm feeling feelings that I'm wanting to avoid. I'm feeling remorse and discouragement for not having completed some work before getting on this plane. My primitive brain on the look-out for danger is telling me: "You should have known better & planned better so you wouldn't have to do work on your trip." So, of course those thoughts cause a chemical vibration emotion that occurs to me as remorse & discouragement. ...
