60. What Embodiment Really Means—and Why It Might Be the Missing Piece in Your Body Image Work


Listen Later

Do you ever feel like you’re doing all the right mindset work around body image, but something’s still…missing?

This week, we’re exploring embodiment—not as a buzzword, but as a powerful, research-backed tool to help you feel more at home in your body.

We’ll break down:
 ✨ What embodiment actually is (and isn’t)
 🧠 The difference between self-objectification and body connection
 🔬 The science behind how embodiment improves body image, eating habits, and emotional resilience
 🛠️ Practical, doable ways to practice embodiment in real life (no candles or crystals required)

Plus, we get real about why embodiment can feel so hard—and why that doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong.

If body image work has ever felt like a frustrating loop, this episode is your invitation to try a new (and sturdy) path.
