What exactly is “intuitive eating?” Most people hear the term and they assume they know what it means just based on how the words make it sound. They think “Oh, intuitive eating must mean eat whatever you want, whenever you want.” And that actually couldn’t be further from the truth. 

 

Let me explain…So if someone turns this into “eat whatever you want, whenever you want,” it essentially becomes a free-for-all with food. And that’s not really listening to your BODY, right? 

 

And this is where the intuitive eating nay-sayers are so far off base. They will say, “People can’t be healthy by just eating whatever they want.” And again, that’s NOT what intuitive eating is suggesting. Give this episode a listen to learn the 10 Principles of Intuitive Eating so you can apply them in your own life.

Key Quotes

“Intuitive eating is a self-care eating framework that integrates instinct, emotion, and rational thought.” - Katy Harvey

“I would highly encourage you to journal about what came up for you, and to consider what movement could look like in your life. And to think of it as an experiment to see what feels good to you and to your body when we remove the pressure and expectation of doing a certain amount of movement for a certain number of days a week, or to burn a certain number of calories.”  - Katy Harvey
