Overcoming Food FOMO: Shifting from Scarcity to Abundance

Jan 21

In this episode, Alana delves into how the fear of missing out affects our eating and offers strategies for navigating this common emotional eating trigger. She explains how food FOMO is not just about the fear of missing a specific dish but is deeply rooted in a scarcity mindset and conditioned beliefs around food. Alana shares her personal experiences with this phenomenon and how it exacerbated her struggles with binging and purging. She guides listeners in shifting to an abundance mindset, where food is seen as abundant and non-urgent, thereby reducing the emotional charge around eating decisions. Alana provides practical tips for managing food FOMO, such as establishing boundaries in social settings and reframing our relationship with indulgent foods.
