We humans have an emotional dependency on food. We eat chocolate when we're sad or depressed, but most of us don't know why it makes us feel better when we do. Yet, that relief is usually temporary, and worse, can thrust us in the opposite emotional direction - it's not a long-term solution to coping with the stresses of life, and can end up causing more stress in the form of unwanted weight gain and other health problems. In Eating Myself Crazy, former bulimic, lifestyle consultant and life coach Treena Wynes not only tells her story of food addiction and how a personal crisis sparked her path to recovery, but also shares valuable information for others struggling with emotional eating issues. Treena shares simple easy-to-swallow bites of important mind/body facts related to food and emotion as well as encouraging her audience to dig deep to uncover deeply hidden reasons for seeking out emotional relief in food. Finally, she offers simple and flexible strategies and tools that can be used to suit any individual's lifestyle and needs.  An experienced and active coach, speaker, workshop trainer and blogger, Treena's goal is to help empower people to overcome their dependence on food to cope with stress, and to do it in a way that demystifies, simplifies and de-jargonizes the vast and often conflicting barrage of information we face in today's information bloated society.
