Perhaps it makes sense to you—on an intellectual level, at least—that you have the power inside to find a way out of bingeing. Why, then, might that wise inner leadership have sometimes been absent? If you feel confused, or even resentful, at not always being able to access that deeper sense of your Self, you might consider that even the president is evacuated in times of crisis. When that happens, others need to step in to fill the vacant protective role, albeit temporarily. This episode talks about why you may have lost your sense of internal leadership, and how the part of you that binges can begin to relinquish power as it rediscovers you.

If you’ve ever noticed a part of you that wants to binge and another part of you that would do anything to stop, you may intuitively recognize the idea of parts. Different parts resort to different coping mechanisms—some of which might be harmful, such as binge eating. However, there is a way to lead these parts in a new direction and to heal negative behavior patterns—even those that seem deeply entrenched. This episode introduces Internal Family Systems (IFS), an evidence-based, therapeutic approach developed by renowned family therapist Dr Richard Schwartz, and talks about how it can help you heal from binge eating.

Hating the binge makes perfect sense. After all, it’s probably wreaked havoc in your physical, mental and/or emotional life. But, has hating the binge helped weaken or diminish it, or does it stubbornly remain? If you’re still bingeing, it may be time for a different approach. One path toward healing is to befriend the part of you that binges—to begin to know and understand it—so that it doesn’t have to binge any more. This episode talks about the importance of befriending the binger in you, and just how to go about it.

On the one-year anniversary of The Done Bingeing Podcast, we’re talking about self-care—epic self-care, the eighth key in this special series, 12 Keys to End Binge Eating. Part of the reason we’re talking about self-care, right on the heels of talking about hormones, is because there’s another hormone that’s important to consider in the mix.

Insulin is sometimes called “the fat-storage hormone” because it’s the main hormone determining whether you gain, maintain, or lose weight. Too much insulin can interfere with the ability of leptin to signal to your brain that you’re full. If you’re bingeing, you’re eating more food then you need, so it’s important to look into how hormones regulate your hunger, regardless of whether excess weight is an issue for you.

This episode takes a deeper look at the second of two key hormones central to regulating your hunger and fullness signals. If you’re bingeing, you’re eating more food then you need, so it’s important to look into how hormones regulate your hunger, regardless of whether excess weight is an issue for you. Once you balance your hormones, it’ll be easier to eat less because your brain will actually be able to decipher the signal that you genuinely aren’t hungry. That’s a very different place from trying to stop eating when your brain is telling you that you really are hungry. The first is freedom. The second is prison. Listen to the episode to find out more!
