How to Cope with Food Guilt During the Festive Season

Ciandra Birnbaum Season 4 Episode 10

In today’s episode , we’re talking about something that so many people in recovery struggle with this time of year — the DREADED food guilt. The festive season brings a lot of joy, but it also brings bigger meals, different foods, family gatherings, and loads of mixed emotions. If you’ve been feeling guilty, overwhelmed, or “out of control” around food during the holidays, you’re not alone at all.

In this episode, we’ll chat about why food guilt shows up so strongly during the festive season, how diet culture makes it even louder, and what you can do to ground yourself when those thoughts start creeping in. I’ll walk you through some ways to stay connected to your recovery, remind yourself that you’re allowed to enjoy food, and move through the season with a bit more ease and compassion. 

Happy Holidays! 🎄
