She has so much to say about what we eat and why and how we feel about ourselves. \r\n\r\n\nWe talk about rules about eating and how they end up backfiring because we react to the restriction. Nina says we need to start with naming our body dissatisfaction. And then we need to name the body management things we do (paleo, keto, raw food, Weight Watchers, \u2026). This isn\u2019t self-care. \r\n\r\n\nSo what do we need to do? \u201cWe really have to bring to the table more of deep listening. What does my body want and need? And sometimes to get to that deep listening, it takes some healing, it takes some work because many women, somewhere along the line, got divorced from their body.\u201d Are you divorced from you body? Do you need to reconnect and build that relationship? That\u2019s what we get deeper into. \r\n\r\n\nWe talk about: \r\n\r\n\nThe many things that make us feel separated from our own bodies\u2014birth, nursing, medical crisis, trauma\r\n\r\n\nEmbracing the complexity, intricacy of who we are and honoring our aging and our changing body\r\n\r\n\nThere\u2019s nothing wrong with saying that sometimes food is what I need for some emotional solace, but we need other tools beyond that\r\n\r\n\nThe importance of listening to what\u2019s right for your body\r\n\r\n\nLearning to shift that so that self-care actually doesn\u2019t feel like another chore?\r\n\r\n\nHow the process of working with your relationship with your food and with your body opens a door to so much more\r\n\r\n\n\r\nBIO\r\n\r\n\nNina Manolson is a certified holistic health coach, a board certified health & wellness coach, a certified Psychology of Eating Coach and Teacher, and an author. She is passionate about helping women end their food and body struggles and begin healthy, vibrant living that becomes a habit and easily fits into their busy lives.\r\n\r\n\nLINKS\r\n\r\n\nhttp://ninamanolson.com/body-peace\u2029\r\n\r\n\n\u2029http://eatonpurpose.ninamanolson.com\r\n\r\n\nEating on Purpose with Nina Manolson\r\n\r\n\n\r\nDoable Changes from this episode:\r\n\r\n\nNAME BODY MANAGEMENT. Just getting aware of the body management thoughts and things you do is an amazing start. Just start noticing and calling out things like \u201cI\u2019ll start on Monday\u201d or talking about your latest diet or \u201cI\u2019m cutting out carbs\u201d or whatever it is. Say, \u201cI see you body management.\u201d \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\nHELLO TECHNIQUE. Nina suggests that hand on the heart and hello goes miles towards starting the relationship with your body. She also talks about saying hello to food to get into a relationship with food. And then Hello pleasure. Use her Hello Technique to start to connect to your body and your food instead of just having rules about what you do and don\u2019t eat.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\nASK WHAT DO I NEED? Ask your body what it really needs? Nina notes that this is a tricky question and that learning to really hear what would make you feel most at ease, most at home in you body or nourish you the most is a process. But start by asking the question and seeing who shows up at the table, what answers you get. \r\n\r\n\n","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/ec61d676-aac1-41d4-8e25-8e8f72073ba7/nina-manolson-1.jpg"}
