    In this episode, I explore two very different real life type 2 stories.

    In the first story, we meet Hannah, whose food intake was very much controlled by what I call The Inner Food Rebel.

    I also interview a client of mine who in 6 weeks has dropped his A1C measure from 58 (well into type 2 territory) to 50 (pre-diabetes) and dropped 6 kilos. Find out how he achieved this.

    There are four ways that Hannah and my client diverge. Four factors in their respective outcomes:

    1: The Role That Food Plays

    2: Control

    3: All or Nothing vs Moderation

    4: Possibly the most important factor of them all. Listen in to find out what it is.

    The hidden gifts of diabetes? Are you bonkers, Harriet?

    Well, no. This episode will give you a massive Aha moment as you turn your dread and fear about your health into a feeling that you can do something about this thing.

    In this episode, I reveal three positives that you have probably never considered before about this condition.

    Gift No. 1: It’s A Wake Up Call

    Hear the shockingly hopeful stat that will power up your motivation to do something about type 2 diabetes. Make the choice that you didn’t know you have.

    Gift No. 2: It Can Prevent a Heart Attack

    Find out how (and try not to fall off your chair). These facts will blow you away - and maybe save your life one day.

    Gift No. 3: The Unexpected One

    The key changes that will reverse your type 2 diabetes - eating better, moving more and reducing stress - create real pleasure. This stands in opposition to fake pleasure which is a product of ultra processed foods, couch potatoing your way through the weekend and overstimulation.

    Find out how you can tell the difference in this episode.

    This is the second in this four-part series on Living Directly.

    Part one is at https://eatingcoach.libsyn.com/ec-215-adventures-in-living-directly

    The hidden price of processed foods is that they enable a mindset you long to be free of.

    Another way in to this topic...

    Is it possible for any food to stop you living directly - to numb you out and deny yourself a place at the table of really enjoying your time on this planet?

    Answer: yes and no.

    See what I mean in this short episode, and learn which belief is enabled by substances such as sugar and other processed foods

    A series of four episodes focused on living directly. What's that got to do with food and binge eating, Harriet?

    Living directly is much more engaging, sustainable approach to health than the traditional problem solving that the whole world has been brainwashed into.

    It's making old wounds as irrelevant as a cut on your finger.

    It's saying to life: I can handle the downs as well as the ups.

    Q: What’s better than a New Year’s Resolution?
    A: Why, a New Year’s REVOLUTION, of course!

    In this episode, I give you a total 180 degree change in how to approach health change at this most failure-prone time of the year that will revolutionise 2023 if you let it.

    The gut is the subject of some rockstar cutting edge research, so why not have the best of both worlds - a huge improvement in your health AND leaving behind struggle?

    Resolution smacks of push, push, struggle, do penance for your food sins and try to be a completely different person.

    There are two guiding principles to make superpowering your gut health much easier:

    #1 Focus on internal health and
    #2 Fall in love with the changes you need to make.

    As I explain, this is very different from the shame-based external focus of most people’s January ‘do better’ efforts.

  • This episode is a follow on from episode 207 on your body as your long lost twin. Listen to that here:

    https://eatingcoach.libsyn.com/ec-207-your-body-is-your-long-lost-twin

    Today I talk about three ways to reconnect to that long lost twin inside you and make those important health and weight goals much more easily achievable.

    Reconnection Point 1: Eating Presence

    What is eating presence? Well, it’s slow eating, Jim - but not as we know it.

    Slow eating has probably the same status in your mind as watching paint dry while being poked with a sharp stick - boring and painful.

    No lie - it is uncomfortable. But in the same way that many of the great leaps forward in your life (getting married, becoming a parent, getting the promotion) involved discomfort, it is so worth it.

    So what has eating slowly got to do with feeling more connected to your body? Well, when you are eating slowly, you are NOT eating fast - and speed eating is a surefire way to check out of your body. It’s as if you have to drug yourself just to sit next to your wounded self in the canteen of life. It’s like Back to the Future where George McFly is the wounded self, Biff the bully is the inner critic, and Marty (Michael J Fox) is the part of you that is eating slowly to sit by George.

    Reconnection Point 2: Evolutionary Psychology

    Evolutionary psychology is, in a nutshell, the part of our brain left over from our cavedwelling ancestors: our Cavebrain. Fight or flight is one example - you switch into lightning fast reaction mode if you see a dangerous driver or your child runs into the road.

    The great news is that you can use your Cavebrain to feel more body acceptance.



    Reconnection Point 3: Possibility Shifting

    People have been in struggle for years and years around their health. Limiting beliefs are the culprit - but simply telling yourself to ignore them. The truth is that these beliefs are a faulty coping mechanism. In this episode I go into more details on this.

    The 3x1 Project is a one month, low maintenance way to slide a healthy new habit into your busy life - right under the radar of your self sabotage!

    How many times have you started off with phrases like MASSIVE ACTION careering round your brain, high on your good intentions - only to be tripped up by your own resistance ……days later (you insert the number)

    What if you accepted that resistance is a fact of life, and instead created a workaround that allowed you to make real, sustainable progress on ONE area of your health?

    This is the 3 x 1 plan

    One Seedling Change

    One Structural Scaffold in your daily routine

    Once a day track your progress and celebrate

    This approach will teach your mind and body to act in spite of your own resistance AND FEEL AWESOME in the process. You will train your brain to get a hit of feel good dopamine from even small successes. What do you think is going to happen to your motivation? It will skyrocket. And your resistance? It will divebomb.

  • Top of many people's health goals is weight loss. The problem with this is that this perfectly useful measure of health has been corrupted by the diet and beauty industries, who have injected harsh unrealistic expectations into the mix, along with a nice toxic dose of body shame.

    Actor Rebel Wilson's story around her weight loss departs from virtually every other celeb's yo yo dieting, and she has a lot to teach us about the difference between toxic perfectionism and healthy health goals.

    There are two distinct reasons that I am guessing that underlie Rebel's sustainable weight change

    Find out what they are in this episode.

    Journaling for this topic:

    Write down all the reasons you have to lose weight. Now put them in order of internal importance. For example, if you have written ‘to ease joint pain’ and then ‘to fit into my favourite dress’ then easing joint pain must come before the dress, because it impacts your life on a deeper level. Think health, think ease of movement, think what else you could do that you cannot nowadays.

    Now look at the top and bottom reasons and notice if your motivation has shifted. Do you feel any better focusing on the most important item? Who else benefit from you easing this problem?

    I would love to know what came top of your list, so please email me info (at)theshiftinside.com

    The Cravings Anti-Challenge

    https://shiftinside.vipmembervault.com/products/courses/view/1139918

    Starring Albert Einstein, The Minions & your Inner Food Rebel. This free 3-day adventure reveals how even the most dyed-in-the-wool food rebel can disrupt their cravings and walk away from sugar - without willpower, self-discipline or even self-belief. Discover:

    The strategy I stole from Einstein (no physics degree required) that sidesteps struggle and is a backdoor to saying no to sugar - even when you have zero willpower

    What anti-cravings Minions are

    Who your Inner Food Rebel is, and how to enlist their help to transform making healthy choices into kick-ass empowerment

    How to channel Harry Potter to walk away from any junk food

    What Is An Anti-Challenge?

    One of the main problems for compulsive eaters is that they are caught between two opposing energies within them (all this gets explained during the 3 sessions). One of these is their Inner Food Rebel. And there's nothing a rebel loves more than disrupting rules that are imposed onto it. And that is kind of the definition of a challenge! We are going to be craftier and more subtle than to try to dictate to ourselves :)

    In anti-challenge, we ditch willpower and self-belief in order to tap into sit down for peace talks with our self-sabotage...while tying its shoelaces under the table!

    Starts Monday 26th September

    This free anti-challenge is a mix of 3 Zoom calls and other materials, such as audio visualisations. Don't worry if you cannot attend all of the calls, because each session will be recorded.

    Misbehaving with integrity (MWI) is a term Clarissa Pinkola Estes coined in her book The Late Bloomer. However it’s not just older people who can benefit from MWI - most recovering food compulsives absolutely need to do it!

    In this episode I talk about what MWI is and the huge benefits for you reclaiming your life from food.

    Benefit #1 It acts against accepting bad treatment

    Benefit #2 It stops you having to censor your life yourself (Which you do to avoid #1)
