Short reflection: Trusting hunger
Reading time: 1 min
Originally shared as part of Inbox Reflections - my honest, heartfelt emails to support your binge eating recovery as a highly sensitive woman.
If you feel like you can’t trust your hunger.
That if you permitted yourself to eat whatever you want, whenever you want, you’d never stop.
Perhaps your hunger doesn’t trust
you.
And I know that can feel like a bit of a blow…
But maybe your hunger has been ignored and overruled too many times.
Maybe it had to take control or grab what it could when it had the opportunity.
If so, now might be the time to start rebuilding that relationship.
To listen to your hunger and get to know all of its little cues.
And to eat with gratitude and respect for them.
Because when your hunger learns it can trust you, you’ll be able to trust it too.
