Emotional Eating & Your Nervous System Ep. #88

Think about your own cravings: what might your body have been trying to tell you in those moments?

So how does your nervous system really create these urges?

We have both Sympathetic vs. parasympathetic states:

• Sympathetic (fight or flight) which increase cravings, restlessness & irritability
• Parasympathetic (rest & digest) – which creates calm, satisfied and grounded

Emotional eating often happens when the sympathetic nervous system is dominant.
