Overcoming Barriers to Intuitive Eating: Common Obstacles to Food Freedom

Bites & Body Love (v)

Have you ever felt like intuitive eating is a concept that soars just out of your reach, no matter how hard you try to grasp it? Welcome to this episode where we, together with Jamie, a dietitian and body image specialist, seek to understand why this is so. We discuss how diet culture and conditioning are not just innocent bystanders but are actually the culprits making it harder for us to abandon restrictive eating habits and rigid food rules. We unravel how guilt and fear associated with eating, body image, and weight loss are the invisible chains holding us back from a trustful relationship with food and our bodies.
Navigating the world of intuitive eating is like walking through a thick fog, filled with the fear of weight gain, dependence on food rules set by others, and the emotional turmoil that accompanies this journey. Yet, as we dive into this episode’s discussion, we illuminate these obstacles and equip you with the needed patience and professional support to circumnavigate them. We believe that despite these barriers, intuitive eating is not a mythical creature but a reachable goal. So, join us as we pave a path towards a compassionate relationship with food and our bodies, ultimately leading to a life that exudes freedom and confidence.
