Jennie and Nina are talking about control today. We are living in a time where there’s a lot happening in the world that is out of our hands. Wars, climate disasters and political unrest are just a few things that leave us feeling out of control. We find ourselves feeling like we don’t have agency to make decisions. There are real things we can’t control, and there are imagined things that we like to think we can control and everything in between. What do humans want? They want to make adifference and we want to have some agency. Jennie KramerFor many people, it involves food. Jennie reminds us that when we do turn to comfort food, it’s okay. Use compassion and curiosity to understand why we’re looking for comfort in this way rather than blame or self-judgement. When we go to food, we’re often looking for a familiar feeling. – Nina ManolsonJennie shares how grounding can help interrupt that feeling of out of control.
