All right, this is Dr. Christian Gonzalez. Welcome to another episode of Heel Thyself. Thank you so much for joining our show in this quarantine in this time.

I really want to... our show in this quarantine in this time.

I really want to speak today about a few points. Well, before I get into the Knowledge Bomb segment,

which is going to be on stress eating,

which we're doing a lot of, I know a lot of people are indulging in foods

whether it's from stress or boredom but I want to talk about that in ways to avoid it or

different interventions that we can put forward to reduce that. But I also am doing a Q&A today.

So I haven't done one since last year and I really enjoyed doing Q&As because once I put out that message hey submit your questions there's just a

variety of questions so I'm sure that all of you who are listening are going to

benefit from the Q&A because I'm sure that you all share a lot of the same

questions, inquiries on how to better your lives.

So really exciting show today.

Without further do, let's sneak right into the knowledge bomb.

All right, so stress eating,

stress eating is certainly a thing during this self isolation period that we are in

Lord knows I've gone into my pantry more than a few times out of boredom sometimes out of stress

and everything in between. So I know I'm not the only one out there.

So I wanted to share a few things about stress eating and why we stress eat, what happens in our

body, and then my favorite ways to reduce it and how to I mean if it's serving you then keep doing it but if it's not serving us which a lot of us it isn't serving then let's make that intervention all All right. So again, I mentioned that we are in this position of convenience, right?

We're home and we have some stuff in the pantry

or in the refrigerator.

And then we are also in this collective emotion right in the collective
