People ask me how I stopped eating fast when I had anxiety and IBS. For me, anxiety put my body in constant panic mode, and I didn’t realize that even if I was eating the healthiest food, my body wasn’t fully absorbing it because digestion doesn’t work properly when you’re anxious. When we’re in fight-or-flight, the body focuses on survival, not digestion. So I started with one small step. Before every meal, I paused and told myself that I am safe, I can eat slowly, and I will chew every bite. Eating calmly signals the nervous system to relax, which allows digestion to function better. This wasn’t a cure, but it was my first step toward helping my gut and my anxiety feel safer.
