363: Connecting to Pleasure in Food & In Your Body May 24, 2022

Show notes

Did you know that it is common in many cultures to believe pleasure is a part of taking care of your health?

Yet in our society that promotes thinness as the only way to pursue health, we have forgotten this important component of enjoying and living life, and also taking care of ourselves...and that's eating and living for pleasure and satisfaction!

At our practice, Nourishing Minds Nutrition, we have a belief that food should be chosen for flavor first and foremost. What's really cool about this mindset is that it can truly allow for food freedom and an all foods fit mentality, because all foods can be so delicious and pleasurable to eat, brussels sprouts and chocolate chip cookies included!

However, if you are new to intuitive eating and come from healthy eating obsessed or disordered eating and dieting past- you likely are not well tuned in to your ability to recognize pleasure and satisfaction. So let's dig in to that more in today's episode!
