I hated my body, but now I love it and it weirds me out
Today’s episode is a follow-up of my last one on how I healed my “disordered eating.” In particular, I dive deep into my tumultuous relationship to my body.
From bed-ridden concussion symptoms, to digestive issues, disordered eating, to hating what stared back at me in the mirror… my relationship to my body has been through the ringer. For so long, I viewed my body as the thing that was holding me back from doing the things I wanted to do in my life. I felt like a caged animal. A hermit crab, superglued to its shell, sporadically tortured by random emotional and physical sensations, with no place to escape.
When I started learning about the nervous system, everything changed.
In this episode I talk about:
-why over-achieving affected my confidence in my body
-the misconception that being positive about your body is healing
-going from hating my body to being at peace with it
-how I’m losing weight working out less and eating more
And more.
Enjoy :)
