Emotional Eating "Stress Management Advice"

The articles about overcoming emotional eating keep coming. The most recent one suggests that to overcome emotional eating you:
First recognize that you are an emotional eater.
Secondly, get some counseling to help deal with your stress level in life.
Thirdly, Use your family to help you choose healthy foods. Take Yoga...
Click here to read the article and post what you think. The beginning of the article is mostly about stressful stress leaving all the good (eustress) stress out of the picture. Don't we emotional eaters also eat when we are happy or on vacation.
I point out these articles for you to read because otherwise you would think the advice is the answer to eliminating emotional eating and if you follow the advice to a "T" and still over eat, then you might believe yourself to be a failure instead of questioning the advice given.
For instance, say you want to Middletown, NY and I give you directions. You follow them and find that you end up in Middletown, NJ instead. It's still Middletown, but the wrong place.
In this case, you'd obviously see that the instructions were wrong, but when it comes to over coming emotional eating, even though you've never been there before, you might think you failed instead of questioning the directions. I hope that made sense.
