Body Shame and the Pandemic: How to Find Peace | Nina Manolson, M.A., NBC-HWC
What if you could stop body shame and end the conflict with your body? In this episode Body-Peace™ Coach Nina Manolson and I explore:
- releasing body shame
- ending the conflict with our body and food,
- and the freedom and power that come with finally feeling at peace and at home in your body.
There is a huge cost to body shame, and several multi-billion dollar industries that profit from that shame. If we are consistently criticizing our body, then that may be our deepest issue looking to be shifted, healed and transformed into our biggest gift. The most important and longest term relationship in our life is with our body and when we are in a good relationship with it, everything else in life flows.
Listen as Heather and Nina share an in-depth and insightful conversation about the collective societal and cultural consciousness about bodies that has become normal when it really isn’t – it’s a very narrow definition of acceptability. In truth, every body is perfect as it is, deserving of being loved, adored, adorned, respected, honored and cared for, with each aspect and facet having its own unique beauty. And, when all our energy and resources are going into being acceptable, then they are not going to the things that are truly ours to share and do in the world. No one has be society’s ideal of beauty to be powerful and loved or wait to be more acceptable to be themselves fully and change the world.
Join us here now as Heather and Nina get real about understanding that often our body image is the doorway to deeper work and finding what may be underneath those issues. Creating a true partnership with our body is so important and it is kindness and deep self-compassion that will support a responsive, nourishing, considerate relationship with it. Nina shares to her being unshakeable is the ability to sit deeply in self-compassion and be able to approach others from the heart and a place of profound compassion. She also reads one of her inspiring poems about body peace, and suggests we try calling our body whatever name we call someone we truly love and honor – and watch a beautiful relationship unfold.
