310: Fighting Food Addiction w/ Essential Oils w/ Dr. Susan Peirce Thompson
How did we get here? To the dopamine era? Doesn’t it seem like as time goes on, our society relies on dopamine more and more? Our guest this week, Dr. Susan Peirce so smartly points out that dopamine is not the molecule of pleasure, it’s the molecule of MORE. When you’re hooked, you’re using substance just to feel okay. And this substance is everything from your Starbucks habit, to smart phones, tv, and cigarettes. Today we focus on a very common addiction: food addiction. At Dr. Peirce’s company Bright Line Eating®, they use cognitive development research to help people lose weight permanently. Food addiction is manageable, and we bring you essential oil tips, and other knowledge to help you get on the right path with it.
Bright Line Eating® is more than a diet and more than a food plan—it’s an entirely new way of living. Automatic habits, wired into the brain over a period of time, quickly transform a challenging and confusing landscape of food choices into a simple, structured system that results in dramatic weight loss, reduced cravings, and increased peace around food.
