47. Grieving Your Ideal Body (The Body Image Reframe that Changes Everything)


Listen Later

If you struggle with body image, you probably feel like you have tried pretty much everything to improve it. Maybe you've done affirmations, reminded yourself that you are uniquely beautiful, told yourself you are more than a body, or any number of other techniques out there, but you STILL don't feel like it is working. This episode is here to fill that gap. Today's episode discusses body grief and explains how letting go of the idealized vision you have of your body elicits feelings similar to the 5 stages of grief cycle.

We discuss:

  • What is grief and how the heck does it pertain to body image
  • What it feels like and looks like to be in the 5 stages
  • Action items for each stage to help you move past the struggles you are experiencing
  • An understandable and important analogy to help you grasp this concept
  • The six stage, that is often forgotten, which is critical to full healing
  • What body acceptance is and how it applies to this scenario
  • And so much more.
