Why You're Addicted to Food, and What Your Nervous System Needs You to Know to Feel Safe with Luis Mojica l The Hidden Connection between Trauma, Cortisol, Glucose, Cravings & True Healing

What if your cravings, blood sugar, and relationship with food are telling you something deeper about your nervous system? In this fascinating conversation, Luis Mojica—somatic therapist, trauma nutritionist, and USA Today bestselling author of Food Therapy—reveals how stress, trauma, cortisol, and glucose are intricately connected, and why healing may require more than simply changing what’s on your plate. We dive into hypervigilance, co-regulation, and somatic experiencing, including a powerful LIVE somatic exercise to help you connect with your body and create a greater sense of safety within. Plus, Luis challenges conventional ideas about “healthy” foods, explains how food can become a tool for regulating stress, and even debunks some surprising myths about beans.
