At long last, a highly requested topic is discussed on the Out of the Cave pod! This week Lisa talks about intuitive eating and compares the principles set forth in the book of the same title by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch with the idea of truly intuitive, instinctual eating and understanding of yourself as a spiritual being in a physical body.

Topics include:

[4:06] Belief systems in relation to food and our body. The two different kinds of “intuitive eating” and what it can really mean for you, your body, and your relationship with food. Who it works for and who it doesn’t (and why you are one or the other).

[14:31] The challenge of intuitive eating when it’s not just about getting out of diet culture, it’s about the emotional reliance on and addiction to food. The relationship between overeating and restricting (whether mentally or physically).

[28:29] Feelings and trauma are held inside our body. The importance of creating safety in order to achieve embodiment. Understanding the entanglement of the emotional and the physical.

[34:41] All foods have equal moral value. There is still varying nutritional and neurobiological value, but it’s not about shame vs pride, good vs bad, safety vs danger.

[46:12] Forming realistic expectations around the presence food will have in our life. Digging deeper into the goal that so many people start with that is not wanting to think about food ever.

[54:42] The way intuitive eating needs to be mindful of all the different aspects of our selves. The difference between trusting yourself and knowing yourself.

[1:02:18] Authenticity vs attachment, our true self in all its complicated and emotional glory. Embracing the deeper levels of understanding ourselves. Going deeper than just eating when you’re hungry and stopping when you’re full.

[1:11:36] Outsourcing to your higher self. Letting all the parts of yourself say their piece and then making the decision that aligns with the kind of person you want to be.
