We are big fans here at Nourishing Women Podcast of talk therapy and mindset work, but as I study and coach on body image work, the more fascinated and focused I become on integrating body work into my own practice. But if you are disconnected from your body, possibly controlling your food intake or experiencing negative body image, in can be SO challenging to come back in to your body.

So in today's episode, I asked my sister, Kat Beck, to come on the show to give us all energy hygiene practices we can all do (myself included!) to come back home to your body. Kat Beck of mystic medicine is an intuitive healing guide + embodiment artist.

She's on a mission to make energy hygiene + embodied movement practices accessible for all. You can click here to learn more about her services, here for her membership and here for her Instagram account.

Set point theory is a VERY popular discussed conversation in the anti-diet space, and one of the most common topics discussed with clients in our virtual practice. When working with clients, we can get into the nuance behind why we get focused on "finding" our set point, but that can be harder to do for you, my wonderful podcast community!

So I asked body image expert, Bri Campos, to come on the show today to discuss some of that nuance to set point theory and why we often fixate on it in hopes it may mean we will lose weight as an intuitive eater. We also talk to fellow coaches and providers in this episode, giving you lots to think about if you work in the body image space. Listen to today's episode to learn more!

Brianna (or Bri) Campos is a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of NJ. She works as a body image coach & is passionate about teaching women about Health at Every Size (HAES) and taking an all foods fit approach to finding freedom with food and learning to make peace with your current body.

In this episode we discussed:

• What's changed in Bri's life since she was last on the show back in 2019!

• Misconceptions that providers have about their ability to coach on body image with their clients, and how to better coach your clients.

• The pro's and con's to the education around set point theory and how this conversation can at times be misguided?

• Other popular themes with body image that providers share that may miss the mark when it comes to coaching on body image.

• How Bri is currently living wellness without obsession.

Self compassion may sound loving and helpful as you connect back into your body and learn how to respect it, but what exactly does it mean to be compassionate with yourself?

We'll explore the concept of self compassion in this specific episode, and also address a common misconception with self compassion, that being compassionate with ourselves doesn't allow us to accomplish things or be successful in life.

There's a pervasive concept in our culture that in order to have what you desire- whether that's health, or success, or happiness, that we need to be harsh and critical in order to be successful. And this is simply not true. Listen to today's podcast episode to learn more!
