Learning to Slow Down as a Chronic High Achiever with Cristina Hoyt
This week's guest is Cristina Hoyt, MS,CNS, Integrative Clinical Nutritionist, and Body Image Coach. She helps her clients cultivate a positive relationship with food and their body by integrating the principles of functional, neutral nutrition, Health At Every Size™, and weight inclusive, non-diet medical nutrition counseling.
Cristina posed a question early in this interview which is still bouncing around my head. Cristina said we should be asking ourselves, "Is my body perceiving everyday life as something I have to survive?" Those words hit very close as a high achiever who struggles to slow down and acknowledge when my body is telling me it needs recovery time.
We discuss the impact of trusting in the intelligence of your body. The truth is that we can only support our nervous system by slowing down, and we need to heed our body's warning signs to do so. This is extremely difficult for high achieving individuals to process since their tendency to power through an endless to do list despite any setbacks will not be a successful approach when it comes to their health. Society rewards us for being high achieving and high functioning, especially in the US, so turning that switch off when your body is telling you it needs a break to recover becomes a very difficult task.
Cristina shares incredibly insights into what slowing down can do for our health and how we often have to rewire our hustle minded brains to embrace a rest and recovery period.
