Today Heather continues her conversation with Dr. Kari Anderson about binge eating. They discuss what’s going on in the brain when we binge, how the brain sends signals that lead to a binge, how binges can connect with attachment and relational issues, how fear connects to inflammation issues, and more. Dr. Kari Anderson is a licensed professional counselor and is a national authority in the treatment of binge eating disorder.

The pair also discuss: how to befriend your body, how to talk to your body, and what a difference this makes in our healing and recovery process after food, body, and eating issues.

If you’ve ever struggled with bingeing, binge eating disorder, stress eating, emotional eating, or any type of food issues where you feel like once you start eating, you can’t stop–today’s episode is for you.
