Janet has been doing my Sacred Vessel Programme from the beginning and watching her transformation has been so rewarding for me. She tells me how she feels now and why this is an approach she'd recommend to other women who have struggled with their body image, food and yo-yo dieting.

As I recorded this interview we are about to start another Loving Your Sacred Vessel Programme, so if you'd like to work online with me in a small group go along to my website for more information and booking. I'd love to see you there!

Perhaps you turn to food when you are not physically hungry. You aren't alone if you do this, it is really common. It's often called 'comfort eating' but I think a better description would be 'discomfort eating' as it is an attempt to suppress an uncomfortable feeling. It may work briefly as a tactic for a momentary fix, but it tends to lead to more unhappiness long term. In this episode I suggest ways you might interrupt that urge to emotionally eat.

Humans haven't changed a lot genetically since the 70s, so why were most people a healthy weight when I was growing up? Now people in the healthy weight range are in the minority. Around two thirds of us fall into the overweight or obese categories. 70s people weren't running on willpower to stay slim and we haven't lost all our moral fibre over the decades!

There are lots of factors which contribute to the obesity epidemic, but one, I believe, is the outsourcing of most of our nutrition to large food companies. It's time to take back some of that control and make gradual lifestyle changes. I've done this and I believe you can too.
