We all enjoy eating, so we all overeat on occasion. The problem arises when we're turning to food so often that we become overweight or our health suffers. When we sense that our eating habits are out of balance, it's important to look at the emotional issues:

Am I feeling good about my life?

Can I cope with stress?

Am I self-loving, or self-loathing?

We all know people who constantly think negatively about food: "I shouldn't have eaten that, and now I'm going to have to work it off." But we really don't want to be overfocused on food and calorie counts.

We want to be mindful, to identify what we're feeling when we turn to food, so that we can begin to develop an inner voice that tells us it's OK to need comfort or be stressed out.
