How Your Body Remembers The Environments Where You've Binge

I'm currently visiting family in Connecticut where I grew up. I was here until I went off to college and then I moved back for about a year before I moved west to go to graduate school. 

Connecticut has been a witness to every stage of my food recovery. From the beginnings of starting to choose food to self soothe, my diet culture years, stuck in the binge-restrict cyle, a short stint into orthorexia and over exercising, and now in full recovery. 

My body remembers where and what I used to binge on, but I have no nervous system activation that tells me to do these food behaviors again. 

This is what can occur in familiar binge or restrict environments.

Your body time travels to the past and recalls what you used to do with food in specific environments and, like a moth to a flame, you're drawn to the same food behavior. 

In this week's episode, I chat about: 

• What happens in your body when you're in your familiar binge eating environments 
• Why you find yourself binge eating at the same time of the day 
• The somatic practice you can start to update your body's memory
