What’s your relationship with your body?

We talk a lot about listening to our bodies, but listening is only one part of being in relationship with them.

In this episode, we're exploring how you actually relate to your body. How do you speak to it and about it? Do you appreciate it, criticize it, compare it, ignore it, or constantly feel like there's something you need to change?

Drawing from my years as a health coach, we also talk about the goals we attach to our bodies and the magical number we sometimes believe will finally make us feel confident, attractive, comfortable, or happy. What do you believe is waiting for you when you reach that number, size, or physical goal? And what happens if your body changes, but your relationship with it doesn't?

We also explore body image, aging and physical changes, respecting what your body is communicating, and why you don't have to love every single thing about your body to honor it, care for it, appreciate it, and treat it with love and respect.

✨Reflection Questions✨

1. When I think about my body, how do I usually speak to it and about it?
2. What have I decided needs to change about my body before I'm allowed to feel the way I want to feel?
3. What would it look like to respect and care for my body as it is today, even if there are things I would still like to change?

And next week, we'll continue this conversation by exploring how we care for our bodies, including our relationships with food, movement, rest, nourishment, comfort, soothing, numbing, and the behaviors we often label as simply “good” or “bad.”

What if your body doesn't need you to love every single thing about it in order for you to begin treating it with love, compassion, and respect?
