02. Collapsing Unhealthy Nutrition Coping Strategies Meditation

This meditation practice helps to collapse any unhealthy nutritional coping strategies or activities of avoidance and guides you to resource what you truly need including on a nutritional level.

Almost everyone “copes” to some degree in their life and food, beverages and additives are where coping can hold the strongest patterns. Sometimes it is important to just be a human, do human things and enjoy different experiences of food and beverages. This helps you ground inside your body and anchors you in your beautiful life and experience. It’s okay to choose things that take our minds off our issues so you can enjoy the moment, but not when it’s detrimental to your health.

Coping strategies become an issue when we consistently choose the coping mechanisms to avoid addressing the issues we have and sometimes coping becomes unhealthy whether you are able to acknowledge this or not. Coping may help get you through certain experiences but if they become a habitual way of being, the root of the issue is not truly being addressed.

Briefly view this list of potential unhealthy nutritional coping strategies and notice if you participate in any to deal with life.

Some may be more conscious than others. You may participate in more than one but there may be one that you engage in that is more unhealthy or driven by hidden motives that you may not even understand. Your coping strategy may or may not be on this list, but let it come to mind now, the one you need to focus on collapsing for your greatest good. When you are ready, begin the meditation.
