Exercise Addiction: 7 Signs Your Relationship With Exercise Needs Healing


Listen Later

If you’ve ever felt anxious skipping a workout, guilty resting, or found yourself “earning” food through exercise, this episode is for you.

Today, we’re unpacking exercise addiction: what it really looks like, how to recognize when your relationship with movement has crossed the line, and most importantly, how to begin healing it so that you can move your body in a way that feels good, is flexible and is rooted in self-love not fear. 

Because yes, exercise can be incredible for your physical, emotional, and mental health. But when it’s driven by guilt, fear, or control, it can quietly start doing more harm than good.

In this episode, I’m sharing:

  • 7 specific signs your relationship with exercise might be unhealthy
  • Why it’s so important to heal this pattern (and how it connects to food, body image, and self-worth)
  • The 3-step process to rebuild a healthy, peaceful, and flexible relationship with movement - one that’s rooted in love, not punishment

If you’ve ever wondered:

  • “Is it okay that I feel anxious missing a workout?”
  • “How do I stop exercising out of guilt?”
  • “Can I trust myself to rest without losing motivation?”

You’re going to want to hear this one.

Because true health isn’t about how often you move—it’s about the energy behind why you move.
