We\u2019ve all been there: A moment of stress hits or boredom sets in, and suddenly the chip bag is empty and the pint of ice cream is gone.<\/p>\n
Almost everyone overeats on occasion. For some, however, these episodes of binging come with a sense of losing control, often followed by feelings of guilt and shame.<\/p>\n
But there are at-home tools that may help you retake the reins. A dietitian recently broke down her go-to method for stopping the binge-eating spiral \u2014 and it takes just 30 seconds.<\/p>\n \u201cYou can be mid-binge, and this will stop you cold,\u201d Dr. Rachel Paul<\/a>, a Columbia University trained expert in nutrition and behavior change, said in a TikTok video<\/a>. <\/p>\n Her approach is two-fold, with each step helping redirect the body and brain.<\/p>\n For the first 15 seconds, Paul recommends doing something physical to help interrupt the binging episode. <\/p>\n
