Did you know that our own adverse childhood experiences can have a very real and compounding effect on our health? Join your host and transformational coach, Linda Alison as she explores and reflects on your health and wellness journey and recognises the emotionally and physically exhausting consequences that years of dieting don't see. Learn how to become a Weight Minder and how you can become fitter, happier and healthy.

KEY TAKEAWAYS 

 

  • Your lifestyle changes and weight minders approach can be about sustainability variety, balance, and moderation instead of the old dieting techniques of avoidance and desperation. Changes to your health and well-being should bring about self-respect and self-compassion, replacing old habits and patterns with new healthy transformations. 
  • Adverse childhood experiences in your past may be the cause of your pursued perfectionism. They may cause you to compare yourself with others subconsciously and over time these experiences compound and can affect your career, family relationships, financial commitments and overall negatively impact on your life.
  • Often these people that post in community groups asking for help are actually crying out for help and an answer to their problem, this is where they fall into the short-term solution of a diet but they're not actually addressing the real issues that may cause negative relationships with food, diets, health and well-being.
  • How can you be a Weight Minder if you don't know where to start? If you're still physically and emotionally exhausted from constant dieting that doesn't seem to work it's often because you haven't discovered the root cause of your trauma, the adverse effect childhood and adult experiences have had on your life. 

 

BEST MOMENTS 

“I don't go on the scales now because I've learned to tune into my own internal cues, but that's taken a lot of practice.”

“Going to the gym too much had an adverse effect because it affected my energy balance because I wouldn't fuel myself properly.”

“If you don't understand the balance of energy your body needs and the hormones it produces you won't understand how to improve your overall health and well-being.”
