Welcome back to Rebuilding Trust With Your Body.

Are you stuck in a cycle of labeling food as “good” or “bad”? This mindset might be harming your relationship with food and even your health. Shifting away from all-or-none thinking can lead to freedom, balance, and genuine health improvements. Let’s explore how this works and why it’s essential for a sustainable, healthy lifestyle.

In this episode, we dive into the root of all-or-none thinking around food and how it perpetuates a cycle of guilt, shame, and imbalance. You’ll discover how labeling foods as “good” or “bad” distorts your relationship with nutrition, creates unnecessary resistance to healthy eating, and fosters unhealthy habits like binge eating or rigid dieting. Most importantly, we’ll explore how breaking free from this mindset can transform how you nourish your body and honor your health.

We Discuss:

  • The Problem with the “Good/Bad Food” Mindset
  • The Science of Cognitive Distortions in Food Thinking:
  • Why “Should” Thinking is Counterproductive:
  • The Importance of Overall Patterns, Not Individual Choices:
  • A Real-Life Example of Breaking Free
