Free Chronic Pain Support without the waiting list!
When Pain Fuels Cravings - The connection no one is talking about.
Why cravings hit hardest when pain has drained your focus, your patience, and your willpower.
Chronic pain is a full-time job… one you never applied for.
It doesn’t just hurt.
It hijacks your focus, your patience, your ability to cope without snapping.
By 9:12pm, you’re wired, sore, and standing in front of the fridge again.
Not hungry. Just... done.
This isn’t about discipline.
It’s about survival.
And your body: smart, loyal, exhausted, is begging for one thing: relief.
But the snacks don’t fix it.
They just give your body something else to focus on… for now.
And in the morning, the guilt shows up even louder than the pain.

That’s exactly why I created When Pain Fuels Cravings: The Connection No One Talks About.
It’s a calm, honest guide that shows how chronic pain drains your focus, energy, and patience — and why that so often leads straight to cravings and comfort eating. Inside, you’ll find simple, doable strategies that help you feel more in control of food, more at ease in your body, and less caught in the pain–comfort–regret cycle.
This isn’t about diets or discipline. It’s about giving you understanding, relief, and real-life tools that make sense when you’re living with chronic pain.
“Comfort eating doesn’t make you weak. It makes you human.”

When Pain Fuels Cravings: The Connection No One Talks About
This is more than just a guide — it’s a gentle, validating first step for anyone living with daily pain, exhaustion, and the hidden cycle of emotional eating. If you’ve ever found yourself in front of the fridge at 9pm, wondering “Why am I doing this again?” — this is for you.
You’ll get:
✅ When Pain Fuels Cravings – Full PDF Guide
A deeply compassionate, no-shame look at why pain and fatigue make cravings louder — and what’s really happening in those hard moments when food feels like the only option.
✅ A Grounding Audio: “Soften the Spiral”
A short, calming audio you can listen to when cravings hit. Designed to soothe your nervous system and bring you back to yourself, fast.
✅ “What Am I Really Hungry For?” Reflection Prompts
A series of compassionate questions to help you get curious (not critical) about your cravings — and uncover what you’re truly needing underneath the food.
✅ Quick Calm Toolkit
Simple, body-based tools to shift out of autopilot: breath work, visualisation, grounding, and self-soothing — all designed to help you pause without pressure.
💭 You don’t need more willpower. You need support that meets you where you are.
This is the starting point.
What if pain didn’t always come with a side of biscuits?
You wouldn’t have to fight cravings, or yourself.
You’d have tools to quiet the food noise before it takes over.
To soothe the stress before it spirals.
To go to bed without that “ugh, why did I do that again?” voice in your head.
And here’s what no one tells you:
When you stop ending the day in regret...
Your body stops bracing for the next blow.
Because when your nervous system feels safer…
your pain does too.
That’s the shift no diet talks about.

I’m so grateful I found Alyson, she is so calm and helped me so much when I needed it. I have tried other counselling services before, but none have ever really worked. I had 6 sessions with Alyson and felt so much better by the end of them. 5 stars isn’t enough! Thank you Alyson x
I didn't just cut out the biscuits,
I stopped needing them.

I'm so pleased I found Allyson. Her calm manner put me totally at ease and she listened to all my concerns before recommending a programme for me. My first relaxation hypnotherapy session left me feeling amazing and more de-stressed than I had felt for ages. If you are curious about what hypnotherapy can do for you, I urge you to give Allyson a call and give it a go xxxx
Hi, I’m Allyson — founder of Mind Align Therapy.
I live with chronic pain too, so I understand the exhaustion, the guilt, and the nights when only comfort food seems to take the edge off.

Because pain may shape your days, but it doesn’t define who you are.
