MV18 You Already Know What Your Body Needs


Listen Later

This episode explores how we're all born with natural body wisdom that gets buried under years of diet culture and external rules.

It empowers listeners to reconnect with their innate ability to know what, when, and how much to eat by trusting their body's signals instead of following external guidelines.

Important Points Covered

Natural Body Wisdom Exists - You were born knowing when to eat and when to stop, but diet culture taught you to ignore these signals in favor of external rules

Your Body Still Knows - Despite years of override, your body continues to send signals about hunger, satisfaction, energy needs, and which foods serve you best

Trust vs. Rules - People who maintain healthy relationships with food trust their body's signals rather than following rigid meal plans or calorie counting

Reconnection Process - Start by asking your body "What do you need right now?" before eating, focusing on physical sensations rather than mental rules

One Meal Experiment - Begin rebuilding this connection by practicing body awareness with just one meal per day to avoid overwhelm

Start small this week by choosing one meal where you pause and ask your body what it needs. Listen to the physical sensations and try to honor what your body is requesting. Notice how it feels different to eat what your body wants versus what you think you "should" eat.

Key Takeaway

You don't need another expert to tell you what to eat - you need to remember and trust the body wisdom you were born with. Your body has been trying to communicate with you all along; you just need to start listening again.
