Welcome to this episode of 'Change Your Relationship with Food', hosted by eating disorder and bariatric therapist, Kyla Holley. Today, the episode dives into the unique and sometimes twisted world of our childhood beliefs about food and the influence these views have on our behaviours and attitudes towards food as adults.
Inspired by Sarah Jessica Parker's story, we touch upon the topic of restrictive upbringing and how it pushes for a drastic shift towards intuitive eating in adulthood. Kyla shares personal anecdotes about her food beliefs growing up, emphasizing their implications on our adult lives. This session addresses common childhood beliefs like guilt around food wastage, using food as rewards, and the pressure to finish everything on the plate.
Furthermore, the episode delves into our unsaid obligations towards finishing meals, underlining the value of deriving satisfaction instead of empty plates. The revelation lies in understanding that every meal offers a chance for conscious decision making, tracing our body's need for nourishment, and marking the boundary for our consumption.
Parents listening in can grasp how to enable healthier communication and instill intuitive eating habits in their children. Instead of laying down restrictive rules, the focus should be on encouraging a balanced diet, understanding hunger, and cultivating flexibility in eating schedules and food choices. The goal is to foster a positive relationship with all types of food and move away from demonizing certain food groups.
This episode also introduces the concept of a "food script", the habits and rules about food we carry with us from our childhood. It encourages listeners to reflect upon their own food scripts, see its impact on their current lives, and reassess if modification is needed. Remember, building a healthier future for the next generation begins with breaking free from our diet history and forming healthier food habits today.
