Paul discusses a question he received on Ester weekend - "How do I not press the f**k it button this Easter?"  Waiting until Easter Sunday to ask this is like asking how to learn to swim today. You can receive cliches that help you stay afloat - mindful eating, don't restrict - but the fear of drowning remains. The risk is asking this same question every occasion for the rest of your life. This episode is about healing your relationship with food and some ideas on how to do it.  To book a one-hour personalised click here.

Patterns of behaviour that once spared us embarrassment, shame or judgment might now be the source of our pain as adults. Secret eating once got us through a tough period and now it's the only way we cope. Intense restrcition offered us control and now it's the reason we overeat. We can ask ourselves "In what circumstance did this peculiar behaviour once make sense?" Then, gently, we can begin to coax ourselves towards better solutions here and now.

Most people rely on inner conflict to make eating choices. We want to shift organically into calm, controlled, self-assured decisions. So, let's talk about the audit. A behavioural audit. A period where the focus isn't as much on strict change as it is observation. What has worked? What hasn't? Who do you want to be on the journey? What is and isn't worth it? How do you develop confidence, self-awareness and control around eating?  Paul transitioned into the online space six years ago with over 6,000 hours of 1 to 1 Personal Training behind him.

These are four important ideas that so often go overlooked. It is normal to stop eating your favourite foods whilst still wanting more. When people say they're addicted to sugar, it is usually because certain foods have become their only "go-to" when stressed or sad. You cannot fix your relationship with food with more food rules There is only one effective strategy after overeating, and it's unspectacular: get back to eating normally.

There is a science to many eating behaviours, but there is also an art - and like art, it is subjective to each of us. Here are a few thoughts from my morning walk worth contemplating.

In this episode, Paul goes through his history of binge eating - how it started, how he broke it and how he stayed out of it. Binge eating was, in part, because of an overvaluation of body shape which ironically made things worse and worse. Paul stopped dieting for a prolonged period, stopped focusing on being lean, practised unconditional permission to eat until it felt "normal", and then dieted again years later with the principles he now teaches his clients, getting some of the best results in the industry.

I'm going to share with you what I have been sharing with my clients recently and all year round. I don't want to encourage food fear, but I also know some reminders are necessary.

I recently spoke on a finance podcast and was asked where I got my investing knowledge. I don't have much. I have a huge interest in human behaviours and predictable tried and true patterns. Skills rely more on behaviours than they do information. In this episode, I talk about the main skills that are important when it comes to losing weight and keeping it all for life - skills that will probably be as true in 100 years as they are today. A calorie deficit seldom works when there is a deficit of eating skills.  

Last week I told a client that it's impossible to lose weight and never feel hungry. So I decided to share a smattering of ideas I've found important and impactful. I've expanded on them a little - using examples in some cases - but the goal is to make them into memorable bite-sized nuggets to keep with you always

Join Paul as he talks about how we can use death to increase awareness of how we spend precious moments of life. The transient nature of life makes it beautiful. Understanding this encourages us to appreciate our bodies, savour food, evaluate who influences us and audit our desires. One personal tragedy can change us philosophically in ways that no amount of reading can.  For the short time we're here, we can choose to appreciate mundane experiences more deeply.

Your personal values are the driver of your nutrition decisions. They help you make the right decision for the right context. Diet conditioning reduces foods to weight loss only. "Good" and "bad". Values help you make autonomous decisions confidently. You will never not love the things you love. The main difference between "good" and "bad" is not the food itself, but whether decisions are made mindfully or mindlessly. If you're looking to break up with dieting, values are a seriously good place to start.
