In Episode 140, I explore why we snack when we’re not hungry, how to shift from mindless to mindful snacking, and whether snacks can be a helpful part of your day.
You’ll learn how to spot emotional, habitual, or environmental triggers, how to honour true hunger, and practical strategies for stopping unintentional snacking without restriction or guilt.
Plus, I answer the top questions I am asked: Is snacking good or bad? When should I snack? What’s a healthy snack?
We wrap up series four with this empowering, non-diet conversation and get ready for Season Five—Healthy Bones Week starts August 25!
As we have a short break before series 5, I have shared a range of resources for you to check out.
