Breakthrough Food Recovery Stuckness With Psychedelics and Movement with Francesca Annenberg

Reading Reddit Stories: Body Image Edition

It is difficult to talk about food without talking about body image. The two are intertwined.  For many of you, it was your body's appearance that started the dieting, restricting, and binge eating. It was the internalized messages from a culture that wants to control women's bodies that shaped how you interacted with food.  And for many, you may create a stabilizing relationship with food and the body image worries may continue because food was helping to cover up the lack of safety to live in your body.  So today, we're going to read some body image Reddit Stories to support you in how you may somatically navigate body image concerns when they arise.  In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat about:  * How nervous system states shape your perception of your body * Body image concerns can be an attempt at trauma resolution  * Explorations on the somatic meaning of body image struggles  * Grief over previous expressions of the body  * The sensory integration that needs to occur to experience the body differently With Compassion and Empathy,  Stephanie Mara Fox Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/support] Keep in touch with Stephanie Mara: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/ [https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/] Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafox [https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafox] Website: https://www.stephaniemara.com/ [https://www.stephaniemara.com/] https://www.somaticeating.com/ [https://www.somaticeating.com/] Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/] TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafox [https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafox] Contact: support@stephaniemara.com Support the show: Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/support [https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/support] All affiliate links: https://www.stephaniemara.com/resources [https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeating] Receive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here [https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARA]: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARA [https://www.equipfoods.com/discount/STEPHANIEMARA?rfsn=7433250.c99684] Use my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl [https://amzn.to/448IyPl] Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. www.bensou...

Game Changing Body Based Strategies for Binge Eating Recovery with Dr. Kristina Dobyns

This is actually a pretty wild story.  During my first year in my PhD, a woman reached out to me through the contact form on my website and was like, "Hey, we're doing similar work! I would love to connect."  I starred the email as something I needed to follow up on and then it got completely buried in my inbox. Then, several months later, one of my teachers emailed me and said, "Did you see this dissertation defense coming up? It is on binge eating."  I immediately marked it in my calendar as something I had to attend. I arrived at the Zoom dissertation defense and as soon as I see this woman's name I was like, "Why is this person's name sound so familiar?"  I sneak off into my inbox and look up her name and lo and behold, it was the same person who emailed me a few months prior. Honestly, I initially felt mortified I had not followed up with her sooner, but I immediately emailed her after the defense was over.  We scheduled a Zoom chat and it was amazing how much we had in common. We come from a similar lens that binge eating recovery needs a body-based approach. It is the body and experiencing it internally and externally that is missing from most recovery modalities.  In this week's episode, I chat with Dr. Kristina Dobyns, PhD, MS, Registered Somatic Movement Therapist, certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, and certified Mindfulness-Based Relapse Prevention facilitator, about:  * What worked and didn't work in Kristina's binge eating recovery journey * What she discovered in her research on binge eating * The importance of building somatic awareness and interoception * The role of sensory strategies * Utilizing nutrition as a part of binge eating recovery * Challenging conventional recovery approaches You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here [https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/body-based-strategies-for-binge-eating]: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/body-based-strategies-for-binge-eating You're about to receive some game changing binge eating recovery strategies and I hope it feels helpful!

4 Teens On A Mission To Revolutionize Teen Health with The Holistic Kids

As many of you know, I went on my first diet when I was 13 years old.  It was Weight Watchers and it shifted how I viewed my body for a decade. I saw it as something weak and that I could control. It would take years of nutritional, mind, and body studies to realize my body was never the enemy I was taught to see it as. I sometimes wonder how things might have been different if I had learned as a kid and teenager how to interact with my body and food from a place of trust.  I eventually would see a nutritionist when I was twenty years old and it was she who told me sometimes you will overeat and sometimes you may undereat but when you zoom out over a month you'll see that your body got the nutrition it needed.  Learning this bodily trust at a younger age might have offered a framework for how to safely land inside of my body rather than constantly leaving it.  In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with The Holistic Kids, four brothers on a mission to educate and empower kids from the inside out, about:  * Their journey to learning more about holistic health * Discovering the impact of food on their health and wellbeing * Their revolutionize acronym * The importance of mindfulness * How they have navigated technology and social media when everyone around them is using it more and more * The role of nature, stress management, and play in health You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here [https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/4-teens-on-a-mission-to-revolutionize-teen-health]: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/4-teens-on-a-mission-to-revolutionize-teen-health I found it fascinating to hear from four teens about what they're noticing about what it is like to be a teenager these days. So whether you're in the process of supporting a teenager or remember what it was like to be a teen, this episode will give you a peek into what the younger generations are currently navigating.  Hope you enjoy it!

Breaking Free from Diet Culture Toward Body Liberation with Savala Nolan

Diets teach us to view the body as a project. You can tinker with what you're eating and transform your body into something different.  Then fitness culture doubles down and provides the message that you can shape your body to be whatever you want it to be, you just have to put up with messages like no pain, no gain and a complete disconnection from your body, how it feels, and what resonates with it.  I know I spent years and years in this ping pong game of diets and body shaping. Then, saying F this, swinging the pendulum to the opposite side and eating everything I had deprived and barely moving my body, only to still feel horrible that I went crawling back to a diet again because I had no clue what else to do.  There is a lot that gets sacrificed seeing the body as a project and this realization often only occurs after months and years when you realize you don't know who you are anymore, how to exist in your body, or what it actually needs.  Yet, releasing the habitual relationship with the body as something to change and alter will also potentially change your relationships, the environments you've been interacting with, and the conversations you engage in. It isn't that easy when everyone around you is also in their own body project to say, "hey, ya know what, I'm done working on my body."  In this week's episode, I chat with Savala Nolan, writer, author, public speaker, and professor at UC Berkeley about:  * The journey of recovering from diet culture * Understanding the language and psychological impact of dieting * Ending the body project and facing the fears and cost of body liberation * Questioning societal norms * Practical steps toward body liberation You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here [https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/breaking-free-from-diet-culture]: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/breaking-free-from-diet-culture This was such a fantastic conversation. Savala describes exiting diet culture in a way that I've never heard someone capture what it is actually like and what a person may come to face in the process.  If you have any insights from this episode, let me know!

What Self Love Really Is And How To Embody It Every Day with Lulu Essey

I have often felt like talking about self love can feel frustrating and confusion. What does loving oneself actually mean and look like?  Early in my twenties, I think I thought self love looked and felt like self discipline. I went to yoga and meditated almost every day, I was strict with myself on what and when I would eat, I went to bed early and woke up early.  From the outside, it looked like I deeply loved myself through how I cared for myself but that it not the way it felt. I felt trapped, depressed, and disconnected. My routine wasn't bringing me joy or love, it brought short term safety. And that bubble would burst if I did anything outside of that routine where I would then be so cruel with myself.  Self love may show up as an act, but now I experience it as a felt sense. It feels like a warmth, a closeness, and an appreciation of my body for all that it does and navigates every day. In this week's episode, I chat with Lulu Essey, Speaker, Mindset Advisor, and host of The Lulu Essey Podcast , about:  * Understanding the difference between self love and self care * The practice of staying with yourself in all emotions, sensations, and reactions * Navigating discomfort * The role of safety in self love * The courage to face inner struggles and the importance of asking for support You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here [https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/what-self-love-really-is-and-how-to-embody-it-every-day]: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/what-self-love-really-is-and-how-to-embody-it-every-day Hope you enjoy this week's episode and talk to you more soon!  With Compassion and Empathy,  Stephanie Mara Fox Keep in touch with Lulu:  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@luluessey [https://calendly.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2F%40luluessey&user_uuid=DBCBMWJVJKQJJFAA&stage=1&hmac=70e95a15626125659c7c983a5129666b5781fcc559d491acea877cbc220489a4] Website: https://www.luluessey.com/ [https://calendly.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.luluessey.com%2F&user_uuid=DBCBMWJVJKQJJFAA&stage=1&hmac=ae7bb2435ed7cfa00284aa510e9c54fe4cbbe082546cf7f0029c155d86aa398e] Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lucille-marie-essey/ [https://calendly.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linkedin.com%2Fin%2Flucille-marie-essey%2F&user_uuid=DBCBMWJVJKQJJFAA&stage=1&hmac=4ecb4acaf2610d53428a3152593688f3f79e784379a6ecaf056198cfb7236978] Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lulu.essey/ [https://calendly.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.instagram.com%2Flulu.essey%2F&user_uuid=DBCBMWJVJKQJJFAA&stage=1&hmac=2d1f23dd4d9f9eea9caa0ac607819bd15d104950560a4a0b8f494c472c9ee59d] Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/support] Keep in touch with Stephanie Mara: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/ [https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/] Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafox [https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafox] Website: https://www.stephaniemara.com/ [https://www.stephaniemara.com/] https://www.somaticeating.com/ [https://www.somaticeating.com/] Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/] TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafox [https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafox] Contact: support@stephaniemara.com Support the show: Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/support [https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/support] All affiliate links: https://www.stephaniemara.com/resources [https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeating] Receive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here [https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARA]: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARA [https://www.equipfoods.com/discount/STEPHANIEMARA?rfsn=7433250.c99684] Use my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl [https://amzn.to/448IyPl] Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. www.bensou...
