Episode #112: Strategies To Free Yourself From Food and Body Shame This Holiday Season

, ,

The holiday season is an intense time, and it’s not surprising that folks may feel more shame around their patterns of eating and their bodies.

On the podcast, Tara shares what the mechanism of shame is and how it works, why you may be feeling more shame during this time of year, and how shame around food and shame around your body are two different things (but may feel like one thing).

Tara offers some strategies around how to free yourself from shame so that you don’t need to react and reinforce it.

Episode #104: Is It Time To Give Up Drinking?

,

Something happens when you start your intuitive eating journey. You start to wake up to the signals your body shares with you. Some of those signals are lovely, like the sun on your skin and when your belly hurts because you’ve been laughing so hard. And some are not so lovely, like when you’re tired and have a headache after drinking a couple of glasses of wine the night before. 

We can’t filter out the signals we don’t prefer and just notice the ones we do prefer. Which is why you may be noticing how alcohol may not feel good to you.

On the podcast, Tara shares her own story being alcohol free for the past three years and how she came to that decision. She also shares the common thread between dieting and drinking, which are both a form of deprivation. Tara offers a few suggestions if you’d like to take the next step to examining your relationship with alcohol.

Episode #101: Daring to Not Diet with Glenys Oyston

, ,

Glenys Oyston, RDN shares her history of dieting and being the “5%” that lost weight but feeling so much emotional distress and food preoccupation to be there.

She shared her desire for body currency and desiring the accolades that come from being that person that lost weight and can keep it off. 

We talked about the risk that comes from only deriving our value from our body because we miss other ways to value ourselves.

Glenys shares what body tolerance is: being okay that you don’t like your body, what to do when you’re having a bad body day, the importance of noticing internalized anti-fat phobia, and recognizing the challenges in the workplace around self care.
