Happy Satiated Saturday!

I like to think of our internal world like Knights of the Round Table. We have many different parts and pieces of us that make up the whole of who we are. 

The more awareness we have around all of our parts, the more consciousness we can bring in around who is speaking up when and how to respond to these parts of ourselves in nourishing ways. 

Each part of us also plays out a different relationship with food. So being aware of who is making our food decisions can be a fascinating journey to choosing the parts of you to make food decisions for you that feels most supportive. 

In this week’s episode, I discuss the Drama Triangle, what roles are on the Drama Triangle and how these roles can play out in our relationship with food and body.

You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here. 

Stepping off the Drama Triangle in your relationship with your food and body can take time. Just listening to this episode you might already be cultivating new awareness which is the first step toward changing any habit or pattern no longer serving us in our life. Take all the bite sized steps you need on this adventure and I'm here for you, as always, every step of the way!

Happy Satiated Saturday!

I truly believe that to heal anything in our lives the way OUT is THROUGH. 

We need to go into the symptom, the habit, the pattern, the belief and we need to get into our body to hear the lessons we were meant to learn. For many that can be the scariest place to be. I know it was for me for a long period of time. I would have done anything to not be in my body. 

I have binged to the point of feeling uncomfortably full. 

I have overexercised as a way to get out of my body not more into it. 

I have over worried about things I didn't even need to be concerned about just to distract myself from being in this body. 

I have even used my symptoms as a distraction as something I needed to fix before I could really be with me. 

In this week’s episode, we will talk about what embodiment is and why it is so important when you start practicing Somatic Eating™.

You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/what-is-embodiment-the-key-to-somatic-eating

This is a practice and a process. If you have been engaging in patterns of stress eating, binging, undereating, overexercising, judging your body, often the body has become a battle zone that you don't want to be in. You're not alone on this healing journey and if you're ever looking for support on that path, reach out anytime!

Happy Satiated Saturday!

What drives your food decisions? 

Do you eat because you're hungry? 

Do you eat because it is time? 

Do you eat because you think you're supposed to? 

Do you eat because you're committed to a certain routine? 

Do you eat because you're bored, stressed, anxious, or worried? There are many many reasons why we eat. 

 What happens when we eat, for any reason, in a disembodied way is that we can miss the eating experience entirely. 

In this week’s episode, you will learn the 3 T's to start practicing Somatic Eating. 

You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here. 

If you practice with the 3 T's, email me back and let me know!

Happy Satiated Saturday!

Wooohooo! It is 2021. Happy New Year to you. I'm excited to see what this new year brings forth for all of us. 

Yesterday, it felt like a blast of social media posts from those in the anti-diet, health at every size, and body positivity movements screaming, "please do not go on a diet!" 

We're now at that time of year where we're bombarded with commercials and social media posts about changing your body, losing weight, getting in shape and "fixing" yourself. Some of the marketing you may see will be very savvy. You might even start to think, "maybe I do need to change myself." 

So what does it take to shift our relationship with our body? To drown out the messages you will see at this time of year? To finally feel the body peace and acceptance you have perhaps been desiring to feel? 

In this week’s episode, we will discuss what body image grieving is and why it is so important to start to appreciate the body you have now. 

You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here. 

I've gone through this process and understand how intense body image grieving can be. Please know you're not alone on this path and reach out anytime if you're ever looking for more support. 

With Compassion and Empathy, 

Stephanie Mara Fox

Happy Satiated Saturday!

Do you know there are many Nutritional Phases we will go through in our lifetime?

A year ago, I wrote about The Nutritional F#!K It Phase.  As we approach the new year, I wanted to dive a little deeper into a different kind of phase that many individuals can feel a pull toward as they enter into a new year.

This phase is called The Nutritional Health Nut Phase. As with all phases, they often teach us a lot about ourselves and our body. And this particular phase can be utilized in times of deep inner healing.

From personal experience, I stayed in this phase longer than I needed to when healing my digestive tract. 

So, in this week’s episode, I clarify what The Nutritional Health Nut Phase is, how to discover what this phase is here to teach you, and how to know when you have been in this phase too long. 

You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here. 

If you ever need support in shifting into a new Nutritional Phase, email me at [email protected] anytime. I'm here for you on this adventure!

Happy Satiated Saturday!

You know the saying, "what we resist persists." I've been reflecting on this saying recently. 

The thing about this statement is that if you're playing out a habit with your food or body that on some level you know isn't supporting you long term, you might feel shame or judgment for resisting changing the pattern. What this saying can instill is that it is on you that your patterns are persisting and it is "your fault."

What if you need your resistance? What if it is there for a reason? What if it is guiding you in some way?

I want to offer a new perspective of resistance when you're embarking on a journey of transforming your relationship with your food and body. It can actually be your friend and ally and it is not "bad" or "wrong" that it is showing up. 

In this week’s episode, I discuss a new relationship you can have with your resistance and new ways you can respond to resistance when it arises. 

You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here. 

I know how intense resistance can feel. I'm the Queen of resistance when I'm not yet ready to make a change in my life. Instead of continuing to potentially judge yourself, embrace your resistance when it shows up. Its presence is there for a reason and I'm here for you in discovering what that reason might be.

Happy Satiated Saturday!

One of the predominant thoughts going through my head throughout my 20's was, "I feel fat."

Have you said this to yourself before? What does this statement mean to you? When have you said this to yourself?

It is not just our thoughts that play a powerful effect on our ability to accept and appreciate ourselves, it is also our interpretation of our thoughts. 

In this week’s episode, we will explore how fat is not a feeling and saying, "I feel fat" puts a judgment on fat as something that is "bad."

You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here. 

The change we want to see in this world of more body acceptance starts within each one of us. When we start showing up for ourselves differently, we start showing up differently with those around us where you will become a role model for others that they too can love and appreciate themselves exactly how they are.

Happy Satiated Saturday!

How long have you judged your body? 5? 10? 15? 20 years? More?

I get it. It can take a really long time to step into body acceptance. We are in the act of healing body image as a culture. Think of how long you have received messages around how you're "supposed" to look? Think of how long you have been reading articles and magazines and emails telling you what you need to do to lose weight or love your body? A focus on your body image is so much bigger than yourself.

To heal this cultural wound, this process ultimately starts within ourselves. As we heal our relationship with our bodies, we can become role models for others that they too can have a different more accepting relationship with their body as well. 

But, what does this process look like? What does it take to step into body acceptance?

For myself, there was never this beautiful explosive moment in the process of healing my relationship with my body like you see in the movies of exclaiming, "I love myself! I really really love myself." This hype of what being in our body is "supposed" to be like is actually getting in the way of healing any wounds you may have around your body image. 

In this week’s episode, I explore how you actually don't need to love your body shape first to heal your body image. 

You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here. 

It can take time to heal a broken relationship with the body. Be gentle with yourself and trust you're always exactly where you're meant to be, learning what you're meant to be learning.

Happy Satiated Saturday!

I'm here today to admit, I'm Stephanie and I'm a recovering People Pleaser. 🙃

I used to say yes to everything. I would often overextend myself and drain my own energy just to make sure you liked me. 

That is really what is often at the core of people pleasing. There is a belief that if we're always there for everyone else we will be loved, accepted, appreciated, and worthy to be alive here in this world. 

When you put everyone and everything before yourself, food can often come in as a way to support you in feeling seen and cared for. 

In this week’s episode, I discuss the importance of saying No and setting boundaries. We will also explore a new definition of what it can mean to say No. If you have struggled with binging and confused as to why this pattern with food keeps happening, this is the episode for you! 

You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here. 

A pattern of binging on food is guiding you in some way. It is telling you that there is something happening in your life that does not feel nourishing. I'm here for you on this journey of discovering what that might be!

Happy Satiated Saturday!

Have you ever noticed how easy it is to play out familiar patterns when you're around your parents or family or the home you grew up in? Being around familiar people and environments spark our habitual responses that we may not even be conscious of what is happening. Creating these habits in familiar environments actually frees up our brain power. An environment that is predictable means we can rely on habits more, giving our brain space to focus on the important things in life.

Thanksgiving might look different this year with everything going on in the world. This could be a powerful opportunity to explore patterns you have around food during the holidays to experiment with a new relationship with your food and body this holiday season.

In this week’s, we will explore how new environments can facilitate creating new food habits.
