148: The Rules of Normal Eating with Karen Koenig

If you struggle with emotional eating, disordered eating, mindless or compulsive eating, restricted eating or the up and down weight gain/ weight loss cycle- this podcast is for you.

I am delighted to welcome Karen Koenig to the Fit + Vibrant You Podcast. In our interview, she shares:
✔️What the ‘rules’ of normal eating are, and what a day of normal eating looks like
✔️The personality traits associated with disordered eating (and whether you can change them)
✔️What self compassion and body acceptance actually means- and how it can free you up to live a more meaningful life
✔️Why the typical advice on overcoming emotional eating and binge eating such as “wait 20 minutes so that you can feel full” “drink water” or “just stop binging” don’t work for the long term

For over 30 years, Karen has been helping dieters, emotional, compulsive and mindless eaters, and weight-cyclers become “normal” eaters. Karen is a licensed psychotherapist, motivational speaker and international author. She lives, teaches and practices in Sarasota, Florida. Karen is also the co-founder of the Greater Boston Collaborative for Body Image and Eating Disorders and a former member of the Professional Advisory Committee of the Multi-service Eating Disorder Association of Massachusetts.
