You’re worried about your health? Good! It’s great to want to take care of yourself. HOWEVER, that doesn’t mean you can’t or shouldn’t do intuitive eating. Intuitive eating is all about honoring your health in ways that are effective and sustainable.

And if you’ve been doing intuitive eating and your health is getting worse, then we need to take a look at what’s going on. Sometimes it’s about playing the long game and working through all the deprivation that dieting caused, and letting yourself have those formerly forbidden foods a lot before you find balance with your eating again. 

Sometimes it’s about your body letting you know that it needs some “gentle nutrition” support which is literally one of the principles of intuitive eating! 

Rather than panicking and going back to dieting (which is only a temporary “fix” that usually makes things worse) – you need to get curious, lean into how to respect your body’s needs while reprogramming your mind to let go of the old diet culture rules and judgments. 

All of this is easier said than done, I totally get it. In this episode I’ll give you some really practical examples of things you can do to support your health, and how to navigate this in conjunction with using intuitive eating to make peace with food and your body.

Episode Highlights:

-The illusion of control that dieting is giving you…and why it backfires for your health.

-What to do if your health is getting worse with intuitive eating.

-Examples of specific health conditions and how to approach it as an intuitive eater, while getting healthier.

-A 3-step journaling exercise that will help you pinpoint what exactly YOU need to do for your health starting TODAY that doesn’t require you to go back to dieting or restricting.
