7. Navigating hunger with interoceptive awareness

Have you ever thought "I can't be hungry, I just ate an hour ago?". Thoughts like these can cause so much confusion between the body and the mind. The body is telling you one thing, but your mind another.

In this episode of How to Thrive, I dive into hunger and interoceptive awareness. I explore how our body sends us signals to tell us it needs sustenance, but how these signals can be difficult to feel, hear or understand after years of food rules and food restriction. I explain the concept of interoceptive awareness, what it is and why it is something we can restore, if we have lost it over the years.

Tune into this episode to hear me talk about:
- Hunger - what is it?
- What interoceptive awareness is and how we can restore it
- What attunement disrupters are and how they impact your hunger cues and overall nourishment
- Three times when you can't always rely on your hunger cues - but your body still needs to be nourished
- Tools to help understand your hunger such as the hunger awareness scale.

Nourishment is a crucial part of self-care and if you're having difficulty tuning into your hunger cues book a free 30 minute discovery call today.
