About this episode
Food and Feelings Part 2
In this episode, we talk about food and feelings for kids. We explain how babies and children learn to interpret when they are hungry and when they are upset, and how it’s never too late to help them reconnect with their natural wisdom around food. We share our own experiences with our teenagers when they were babies and children. We talk about the power of attachment play to help children when they are eating to suppress feelings, and how we can offer loving limits when a child is using food as a control pattern. Most of all, we invite you to have lots of self-compassion as you listen to this podcast!
