Rebuilding Trust With Your Body

#177: The "Wellness Trap" Nobody Talks About When "Eating Healthy" Turns Into Dieting


Listen Later

What if I told you that your "healthy eating" might be just another diet in disguise? What if your pursuit of wellness is actually hurting your relationship with food - and your body - more than helping it?

This is what I call "The Wellness Trap," which happens when your pursuit of healthy eating turns into a form of dieting or disordered eating, and it's far more common than you might realize.

Healthy eating is praised in our culture as a noble and admirable thing to do. However, part of the issue is that the way society views "healthy eating" is warped, extreme, restrictive and often disordered.

This can make it hard to know how to truly honor your health with your eating, without it crossing the line into dieting or disordered territory.

In this episode we're going to talk about how to find the balance that feels right for YOU with your eating and your approach to health.

Episode Highlights

-Sneaky ways diet culture hides in wellness

-When wellness becomes a full-blown obsession into orthorexia

-Tangible steps to break free from the "Wellness Trap"
