Are you constantly reaching for sugary snacks to escape uncomfortable feelings and emotions? In this powerful episode, we dive deep into the connection between self-love and addictive behaviours, particularly focusing on sugar cravings and emotional eating. Learn why external pursuits of pleasure - whether through food, social media, or other distractions – often mask a deeper need for internal connection and self-acceptance. Key Highlights: - Discover why society's outward focus makes self-love feel "icky" or uncomfortable, and how this impacts your relationship with food - Understanding the real reason behind sugar addiction: it's not about the food, but about escaping the present moment and avoiding self-reflection - Learn the "one tweak a week" approach to breaking free from addictive behaviours without the pressure of going cold turkey - Explore how childhood experiences, even small repeated negative messages, can shape your relationship with self-worth and emotional eating *** Join the Healthy Mum’s Facebook Group here: https://mattylansdown.com/HealthyMumsFBgroup *** PROGRAM ENQUIRIES: Send Matty the word ‘PROGRAM’ right here to start your journey to fix your Emotional, Binge & Overeating: https://m.me/mattylansdown *** How to Get in Touch with MATTY LANSDOWN Healthy Mum’s Facebook Group: https://mattylansdown.com/HealthyMumsFBgroup Take the 10 Day Emotional Eating Challenge: https://mattylansdown.com/take-the-10DayChallenge Send Matty the word ‘PROGRAM’ right here to discuss our programs: https://m.me/mattylansdown Subscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@howtonotgetsickanddiepodcast Join our Email list here: https://mattylansdown.com/JointheMailingList -- Intro/Outro track Tropic Love by "Diviners feat.
