Episode’s Key Points:

• Intuitive eating can feel SO freeing and exciting, but it also can be tough and SUPER scary!
• Can you sit with the uncomfortable emotions that come up during the intuitive eating process?
• Emotional eating is a part of normal eating!! The problem is when food is the ONLY method we have to soothe hard feelings.
• Part of the food peace journey is moving away from diet culture.
• Give yourself unconditional permission to eat, and unconditional permission to eat food emotionally!
• Our world hasn’t recovered from it’s own eating disorder yet, and that means that food peace can feel really, really hard.
• We need more fat positivity in our world. Exploring more body image resources can help mitigate the hard feelings that come up in the food peace journey.
• Intuitive eating takes TIME. Give yourself some patience and compassion, and know that you’re going to get there eventually.
• Immerse yourself in recovery… jump all in!! Give yourself unconditional permission to eat, and unconditional permission to let your body be where it needs to be.
• ALL of our bodies will change throughout our lives, so we need to make peace with our body no matter what it looks like at any one time.
• You can’t experience recovery until you’re ALL IN! Surround yourself with other food peace and body acceptance warriors to support your journey.
