Cydney has spent the last four years feeling completely controlled by her relationship with food and her drive to obtain body perfection through diet and intensive exercise.

In today's weight-obsessed culture, it's easy to feel pressured about having a certain body shape or size. Messages from family, peers, or the media often tell us we need to be thin to be happy, and we can even start internalizing these beliefs and beat ourselves up for not having the perfect look. Some people think that these continual reminders about how important it is to get rid of excess pounds will keep us motivated to stay on a diet or put in our daily gym time, but the reality is sobering. Consant criticism, whether it's coming from others or from ourselves, keeps us in a state of chronic stress about our weight, which produces a biochemical chain reaction in our body that actually makes it much harder to burn fat - and may even have the opposite effect. In this compelling new podcast episode, Emily Rosen, Director of the Institute for the Psychology of Eating, explains why it's time to let go of fighting our bodies, and let the magic of life take over.

If you believe that good nutrition is key to good health, you probably put quite a bit of thought into what you eat. After all, you want to make sure your body is getting the vitamins, minerals, and macronutrients that it needs to thrive. But what about the eating process itself? Do you take time to savor your food? Are you fully present when you eat, or do you prefer to grab a protein bar on the go? When we eat in a rush, we not only miss the opportunity to experience one of the greatest pleasures of life. More and more, science is proving that our metabolism functions best when we give our meals the time and space they deserve. In fact, fast eating can cause our digestive system to eliminate nutrients instead of absorbing them into the bloodstream - and all the care we put into choosing that beautiful bunch of kale is literally washed down the drain. In this timely new podcast, Emily Rosen, Director of the Institute for the Psychology of Eating, explains why slowing down to eat may be the most important dietary change you’ll ever make!

Bitterness has a bad rap. No one ever talks about having a “bitter tooth” - a powerful craving for bitter foods to snack on - and few of us would want to be known as a bitter person. In fact, nature has helpfully made many plants bitter-tasting as a way of warning us that they could be dangerous. But if we take bitterness at face value and try to avoid it altogether, we might miss out on some amazing gifts that are hidden below the pungent exterior. In this intriguing new podcast, Emily Rosen, Director of the Institute for the Psychology of Eating, dives deep beneath the surface to explore the healing and life-enhancing properties of bitter substances. You’ll learn why the right dose of something bitter can be nutritious and supportive for our body, heart, and soul. Maybe it’s time to welcome a little bit of bitter back to the table!

Have you ever found yourself in a situation like this? You run out the door in the morning with breakfast in hand - something portable that you can eat in the car during your commute. Lunchtime comes before you know it, but you still have lots to do, so you eat in front of your computer while you type. At the end of the day, you’re too hungry to wait for a home-cooked meal; instead, you hit the drive-through window and you’re finished with your dinner before you even get home. Later, you may not feel very well, and you might wonder if something is wrong with your digestion. But in fact, your digestion may be functioning perfectly. It’s just doing something you don’t want it to do - namely, keeping energy in reserve for fight or flight, because your fast, distracted eating throughout the day has signaled your system that you’re under threat. In this eye-opening new podcast episode, Emily Rosen explains why these common eating behaviors can make it harder for us to digest our meals, even if we’re eating nothing but the healthiest foods. If you’re one of the many people who don’t think they have time for a lunch break, you won’t want to miss this video. Spend five minutes with us now, and you just may change your metabolism for good!

It seems like every few months, a new food fad takes the nutrition world by storm, and everybody, from the diet experts to the bloggers to the celebrity chefs, jumps on the bandwagon. Whether it’s a newly-discovered superfood or a common household item that we need to avoid at all costs, we’re constantly being instructed, “Eat this, but don’t eat that.” It can be hard to keep up with the changing trends - and frustration can arise when a food we thought was OK to love turns up on the “bad” list. Fortunately, there’s an excellent guideline that can help us navigate the shifting nutritional landscape and even enjoy ourselves along the way. In this empowering new podcast episode, Emily Rosen, Director of the Institute for the Psychology of Eating, talks about the key factor that makes the difference between food that depletes our energy, and one that enhances our life force: quality. Tune in and learn why quality is so important when it comes to nutrition, and why a birthday cake that’s made with the best ingredients can be better for you than a kale salad that’s not.
