Body Image Work
Manage episode 362914458 series 2986250
Hey everybody. Welcome back to the Balanced Dietician podcast. I’ve been feeling good the last few weeks! I always kind of forget how my mental health is impacted by winter until we get into spring again. Every spring I just feel like a different person.
It's really interesting because most folks who do the healing journey, to have a better relationship with food and their body, will experience something similar. When you have a not-so-good relationship with food, we kind of know it's not great, but we don't realize how bad it actually is until you've healed. When we can look back and just realize how things used to be, we realize how far we've actually come; pretty cool, right?
For most of us, our relationship with food wasn’t always bad. It started to get tricky we were trying to manipulate food in order to change our body. Body image is often the source of our food relationship issues.
So if we do the work to heal our relationship with food, but we don't do the body image work, it feels kind of like a bandaid solution; we're not doing the deep work that started the problem.
IN THIS EPISODE, WE DISCUSS:
- The body positivity movement
- The body image spectrum:
Body respect, Body trust, Body neutrality, Body appreciation, Body confidence, Body acceptance, Body liberation
