Unlocking Healing: Empowering Women with Trauma to Reclaim Health and Happiness

Discover the transformative power of healing as registered dietitian Christa dives into the profound connection between emotional trauma, blood sugar control, and weight management. 

Key Topics:

• (3:43) These layers of trauma have led them to develop mental defense blocks, using food as a shield against their pain and an escape from their harsh realities. However, this coping mechanism has taken a toll, resulting in weight gain and the onset of prediabetes and type 2 diabetes.
• (4:43) Are you trying to dodge a strong emotion? 
• (5:00) What I would love for you to do, is give yourself some time and space between grabbing that food and asking yourself a few questions. 

1. Where are you right now?
2. Are you eating because you’re truly hungry? If no, what are you feeling?
3. What is this feeling? 
4. Does it have a color? And does the color change as you continue thinking about it? 
5. Do I know what the feeling is? Can you identify it?

• (5:10) The more you reflect on these questions and identify what the true trigger is, I ask you to please find a counselor or therapist and work alongside a dietitian to really guide you and even connect you to a community of other women - to help further empower you.
