Last week, I taught a live workshop called “How to Stop Hating Yourself After a Binge”. During the workshop, I delved into some simple yet impactful cognitive science to help you understand the way your brain functions so you can start working in yourself instead of against yourself. In today's episode, I share the “flip your lid” brain model of how the brain works when it perceives a threat, and one simple strategy to use when that happens. If you've ever “flipped your lid” and wondered what happened, you'll have a clear picture of what takes place in the brain during those moments after this episode. If you love learning about the brain, understanding your overeating psychology and behavioral patterns with food, and figuring out how to respond to yourself in supportive ways, this episode is for you.
