Understanding Your Food and Body Image Impulses While Traveling and What To Do About Them

Happy Satiated Saturday! 

After traveling to Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands for almost 2 weeks, many of you requested that I share some tips on how to navigate food fears and body image concerns while traveling.

There's this messy middle part when you're healing from disordered eating where you won't know what your body is trying to tell you and when you travel, your sympathetic nervous system can be triggered easily where it's even more difficult to hear what your body has to say and what it needs. 

In this week’s episode, I talk about why traveling can activate your fight or flight response, four food and body image concerns that may arise when traveling, and how to navigate them somatically.

If there's something specific you'd like me to explore around traveling while healing your relationship with food, please email me and I'm happy to do a part 2 on this episode! 

With Compassion and Empathy,
