In this episode, I offer a more positive and realistic approach to emotional eating. Firmly rooted in the truth that we are all born "emotional eaters" I explore the deficits in coping we may actually be describing when we mislabel them as "emotional eating." I offer some helpful questions at the end of today's episode for listeners to use to reconnect to themselves and engage new or lost coping skills.

This episode invites listeners to engage in Ahimsa (Sanskrit for “noninjury”) towards the self. In this episode, I extend a very realistic invitation to listeners. You don’t have to love your body, but can you simply work on being non-violent against it? Can you end the body battle, at least for a while?

The practitioners I mentioned in this episode can be found here:

Alia Khan, Tiffany Croww, and Jessamyn Stanley

In today's episode, I offer an invitation to "bless" our bodies. Allowing for a new and more sacred relationship with ourselves, and in practical terms, slowing us down enough to become attuned to our body. In this episode, you'll find a body blessing I wrote myself. Please save it and listen to it as much as you'd like. May we all be blessed in our body-healing journeys.

The books I mentioned in today's episode are To Bless the Space Between Us and The Lives We Actually Have
