Optimizing our environment (using interior design principles) is a powerful tool to help us develop new habits.
I work with my clients to change on six levels to break free from emotional and binge eating. One of the levels is their environment.
When I worked with Adriana Gómez Navarro, Holistic Interior Designer, on her eating habits, she had brilliant ideas about making small changes in her home to help her build the new eating and thinking habits I taught her.
I loved her ideas so much that I asked her to write a guest post about them so you can benefit from her tips too.
Check out her post below about how to use Interior Design to help you break free from emotional eating.
Interior Design to help you break free from emotional eating
My name is Adriana Gómez Navarro, and I am a holistic interior designer. Beyond creating beautiful spaces, my work is about well-being and designing for the changes people want to see in their lives. We shape environments, and then as we live in our spaces, the environment shapes us back.
I met Rita a couple of years ago and loved her guidance while reviewing my habits and impulses around food. We both agree that forcing new habits doesn’t work. Instead, it’s best to flow towards desired outcomes. We both help our clients look at their experience to identify, in their armour of beliefs, why they are stuck in bad habits that don’t allow them to have the life they want.
