Sharing a good meal is generally a very popular moment of conviviality.

But not for everyone. For some people, eating in public with other people is unthinkable.

They suffer from a kind of social phobia that prevents them from fully enjoying such a moment.

This fear of eating in front of others can reveal very different fears, such as the fear of swallowing or the fear of choking.

But more often than not, food is not involved.

It is the gaze of the other that is feared, his judgment regarding the way of eating.

This social phobia which manifests itself in the fear of eating is in fact indicative of a great lack of self-confidence.

The phobia is the consequence of an intense suffering that has arisen in the past of the phobic person, probably in connection with food, which has caused a loss of self-esteem.

For example, having vomited or nearly choked in the canteen in front of all his comrades can be a trigger.

This feeling of unease permeated the reptilian brain with an emotional blockage.

Since then, the reptilian brain associates since each meal taken in public as potentially dangerous, being able to further weaken the lack of self-confidence.

This fear of eating in front of others has significant repercussions on a daily basis, because dining out with family or friends is avoided, as are meals taken in the company restaurant or in the canteen for the youngest.

However, it is possible to remedy this and overcome your fear of eating a meal in public.

How to overcome the stress of eating in public (social phobia)?

Forcing yourself to eat away from home and face the crossed eyes can be a way of realizing that others are not passing malicious judgment about this vital act which they also practice elsewhere.

However, this method is done in pain.

To overcome the stress of eating in public, the most effective and lasting solution to implement without violence is to release emotional blockages.

Which induces an operation to clean the reptilian brain.

As a yoga therapist and breathing coach, I have designed the complete program called “Detox Emotions” to help you achieve this goal. Entirely natural since it is based on yoga postures for tremor, the “Detox Emotions” program takes the form of a free video workshop.

It is therefore followed at a distance, in self-therapy.

Facilitating access to the reptilian brain and the release of blocked emotions, “Emotions Detox” participates in the cure of the social phobia of eating in front of others.
