Hey there! Welcome to another enlightening episode of the Limitless Body and Mind Podcast.
Today, I'm diving deep into the pervasive issue of sugar cravings and the broader spectrum of food cravings, including drinks and even alcohol. If you've ever wondered why you can't shake off those cravings despite your best efforts, this episode is just for you.

Join me as I uncover the three main culprits behind your cravings and explore effective strategies to overcome them. These insights are drawn from my personal experience and years of helping clients break free from the grip of cravings, binge eating, and other eating disorders.

Key Topics Covered:

Understanding the Primal Brain:

- Discover how the primal brain influences your cravings and why it's often the root cause of binge eating.
- Learn how to recognize and ignore primal brain signals by observing them as external influences rather than internal needs.
- Explore practical strategies to overcome these signals, inspired by the transformative book "Brain Over Binge" by Catherine Hansen.

Dopamine Addictions:

- Understand the role of dopamine in your cravings and how sugar can spike dopamine levels as intensely as other pleasures like sex.
- Learn to identify when you're seeking a dopamine fix through food and how to replace this with healthier alternatives.
- Discover the power of other pleasure hormones like serotonin and endorphins, and how to activate them through simple lifestyle changes.


Habitual Patterns:

- Analyze how habits contribute to cravings and why understanding your primal brain and dopamine addictions is crucial before tackling habits.
- Gain insights from the popular book "Atomic Habits" and apply tactical tips to replace negative habits with positive ones.
- Learn how to create barriers between you and your cravings, and the importance of mindful eating.

Personal Strategies and Hacks:

I share my personal strategies like my daily protein shake routine and the importance of frequent walks and exercise to manage mood and energy levels.
Discover the concept of mindful eating and how being present with your food can change your relationship with it.
