Hungry for Connection

Are you hungry for connection?

Do you turn to food for comfort when you're feeling lonely, anxious, or depressed? Perhaps you have a history of yo-yo dieting, or use food to deal with stress? If you struggle with emotional eating, undereating, or obsessions about nutrition, you may have an insecure attachment style that is driving your behavior. You aren't alone. In our increasingly isolated world of technology and social media, people are turning to food or diet culture in an effort to "fill the void," only to be left unsatisfied and unfulfilled. So, how can you nourish true connection instead?

Based in attachment theory, this essential and timely book reframes emotional and restrictive eating as a deeper struggle for safety and security. With this guide, you'll identify and examine your own attachment style, learn how attachment wounds can impact your relationship with food, and decrease your dependence on food behaviors as a tool to self-regulate, relieve pain, and find comfort.

With this compassionate guide, you will discover tools to:

• Identify why you turn to food to numb painful feelings
• Explore the role of social media in feelings of isolation
• Cultivate healthy coping behaviors
• Feel safer and more secure in your relationships

With this groundbreaking guide, you'll find powerful skills to heal from the loneliness, anxiety, and attachment wounds that cause disordered eating, and live with more connectedness, meaning, and true fulfillment.
