Health issues arise if we don't overcome this disorder. Emotional eating is actually overeating due to negative emotions.

Healing Emotional Eating

Hello, True Health Seekers! One thing we're not talking about today is food. Rather, we're going to talk about healing beyond food.

Personally, I feel like my audience is a lot like me. We've tried everything. We've been on every diet, whether it be soy free or vegan. For some of us, we swung from one side of the spectrum to the other when it comes to diet and emotional eating. And yet we still can't find the missing pieces to healing.

This is where we really need to go within and see what's going on. To discover if there are some components that have nothing to do with food and that can heal my body.

The Wake-up Call

Holistic Nutrition Expert and Transformation Coach, Shana Ekedal is an educator and a trailblazer in the area of mind, body, and spirit wellness. At the tender age of 10, her parents divorced. She started emotional eating, basically having an unhealthy lifestyle.

"The real wake-up call happened when I was diagnosed with skin cancer on the bridge of my nose," says Ekedal. "Oftentimes we don't realize things until we have a physical ailment going on."

Ekedal eventually started the road to healing. She did a self-evaluation which questioned why she was abusing her body with emotional eating.

Taking The First Step

"Most of the time, we want to know what the end result is. It really made me trust in making the first step and then more will reveal itself," she shares.

I totally agree with Ekedal. We just have to be open to the guidance and opportunity that is coming our way. We should set our minds to eat better. If we do, it consequently becomes this gateway where all these other things are opening up. Some gateways to healing our body are yoga, meditation, cycling class, going vegan and many more.

How To Stop Emotional Eating

Ekedal's journey to healing took her seven years. This was because she tried a lot of things that didn't work. Or the stuff that wasn't working were the stuff she didn't need. Eventually, she resolved to help others as well.

I believe that when you're a healer, you're like a sales manager. You end up doing what you love doing which is helping people. When you think about, say for example---real estate, that is a huge transition in someone else's life.
