Feeling Lost? A Mental Health Check In You NEED Right Now!
Have you ever felt like you were too much for feeling deeply?
😔 You’re not alone. In this powerful episode of Healthy by Geo, I share my personal journey through therapy 🛋️—the breakthroughs, the struggles, and the lessons that changed my life. 🌟
Therapy taught me that feeling everything—the joy, the pain, the fear, the love—isn’t weakness… it’s a superpower. 💥 It’s a sign of healing, awareness, and true inner strength. 💖 If you’ve ever been told to “toughen up” or “get over it,” this video is for you.
Let’s break the stigma around mental health 🧠 and talk about what it really means to feel your emotions fully. We’ll explore tools that helped me cope, grow, and reconnect with my authentic self. 🧘♂️✨
So grab a cup of tea ☕, find a quiet space, and come take this heart-centered journey with me. Whether you’re already in therapy or just thinking about it, know that it’s okay to cry, to laugh, and to feel everything. You are not broken. You are becoming. 🌱💫

MC shares about her current challenge of maintaining while dealing with an approaching surgery to repair her left hip. Managing emotional eating involves understanding its triggers and developing healthier coping methods.
MC shares how embracing compassion towards ourselves is an approach that embraces exactly where we are and recognizes that perfection is not the goal, but realizing what we are feeling and helping ourselves with support and comfort.
Here’s a practical approach:
🧠 1. Identify Emotional Triggers
Emotional eating often stems from feelings such as stress, boredom, loneliness, sadness, or even happiness.
Keep a journal: Note when and what you eat, your emotions, and your hunger levels.
Look for patterns: Are times, places, or emotions consistently leading to overeating?
🔄 2. Differentiate Physical vs Emotional Hunger
Learn to tell the difference between real hunger and emotional cravings.
| Physical Hunger | Emotional Hunger |
| —————————— | —————————– |
| Comes on gradually | Comes on suddenly |
| Can be satisfied with any food | Craves specific comfort foods |
| Stops when full | Can lead to mindless eating |
| Doesn’t cause guilt | Often leads to guilt or shame |
🧘♀️ 3. Develop Healthy Coping Strategies
Replace eating with other ways to handle emotions:
Stress → Exercise, deep breathing, or a walk
Boredom → Hobbies, puzzles, reading
Loneliness → Calling a friend, joining a community group
Sadness → Journaling, therapy, soothing music
4. Practice Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and without distractions.
Focus on the flavor, texture, and satisfaction level.
Ask yourself during meals: “Am I still hungry?” or “Am I eating out of emotion?”
🛠 5. Create a Supportive Environment
Don’t keep trigger foods easily accessible.
Stock up on healthy, satisfying alternatives.
Talk to someone you trust when you feel overwhelmed.

💬 6. Consider Professional Help
If emotional eating feels unmanageable, a therapist or registered dietitian (especially one trained in intuitive eating or eating disorders) can offer tools and support.
