Why Did We Evolve to Demean Ourselves?

People are often very confused by how our survival drives can have evolved to create demeaning, self-critical voices after (and sometimes before) a binge and/or overeating episode. In this short, 5 minute audio I do my best to explain! The takeaway is, that self-critical, extremely negative voice after a binge is only motivated to get you to binge MORE so you shouldn’t listen to it! Pay attention to what you did wrong, make necessary adjustments, and then let go of the guilt and shame as they will not only not serve you, they’ll make the problem much worse! HIT PLAY TO LISTEN NOW. Then click here to join the LAST live coaching program of the year so we can teach you to do this for yourself! (There’s still room, and plenty of time to catch up by watching the recording of the first lecture and connecting with your coach before Saturday)

If you struggle with binge eating, emotional eating, stress eating, or if you repeatedly manage to lose weight only to gain it all back, you may be approaching things with the wrong mindset. Most contemporary thought on overeating and bingeing focuses on healing and self-love. But people who've overcome food addiction and weight issues often report it was more like capturing and caging a rabid dog than learning to love their inner child... Open the cage even an inch—or show that dog an ounce of fear—and it'll quickly burst out to shred your healthy eating plans, undoing all your progress in a heartbeat. From his perspective as a formerly food-obsessed psychologist—and previous consultant to major food manufacturers—Dr. Livingston shares specific techniques for isolating and permanently dis-empowering your “fat thinking self.” He reveals much of his own personal journey in the process.
