If you're here, chances are you understand the constant battle with food, swinging between control and chaos. In this video, I delve into this struggle and share insights on how to find resolution, even if it's been a long-standing battle. As a psychotherapist who has personally faced this challenge, a common thread I've observed is the prevalence of black-and-white, all-or-nothing thinking. If you find yourself reacting strongly when you feel you've "blown it" with food, this may resonate with you. I discuss the healthy balance between control and chaos, which is order and freedom. These opposing forces ideally coexist, but for many, the battle begins when order transforms into control, triggering rebellion from the freedom side, leading to chaos. To move towards a healthier balance, it's essential for both sides to give a little ground. For those inclined towards control, regular eating provides a sense of order. However, it's crucial to introduce rhythm without rigidity, allowing for choices and flexibility. Additionally, the video explores the concept of inner child work. Our relationship with control and freedom develops early in life, influenced by our upbringing. Communicating with the inner child—those parts reacting strongly to change—can provide insights into the beliefs that need reassurance. Furthermore, addressing these inner parts involves soothing language and an understanding tone, akin to how one would comfort a child. Whether inclined towards control or freedom, acknowledging the importance of both and finding a middle ground is key to resolving the battle. The video concludes by emphasizing the need for self-discovery in finding the balance between order and freedom. While there's plenty of advice out there, the real shift often comes from personal realizations. The viewer is encouraged to explore what balance looks like for them and consider principles from intuitive eating.
