Are you sick of the negative self-talk, guilt, shame, and endless cycles of restriction and bingeing? Does the idea of "healthy eating" feel overwhelming, controversial, and like you'll never get it right?
Rise above all the negative storylines and radicalize (get rooted in) the way you think about food and nutrition!
Join your host Kelsey Conger, an herbalist, nutritionist, and lymie on PLANET SPOONIE - the podcast for lymies and spoonies healing themselves and the world.
In this episode, we'll let go of the negative stereotypes and narratives surrounding our food choices. We'll redefine what "healthy eating" means by talking about some key guiding principles of holistic nutrition, ultimately empowering you to view food as an act of self-love and nourishment.
We talk about food as love, prioritizing local foods, honoring bioindividuality, embracing all the macronutrient groups, and eating the rainbow. We also challenge societal pressures that affect our relationship with food and body image, and discuss the significant role of food in our lives beyond just our physical well-being. By acknowledging the cultural, historical, societal, ecological, and biological aspects of the modern diet, we can make more informed and confident decisions about what we eat in our daily lives.
As you navigate this holiday season and the winter solstice approaches, use these guiding principles to develop greater body awareness and increase your nutritional literacy to feel your best. Together, let's debunk the myth of the perfect diet and celebrate food for its ability to connect us to our roots and love ourselves even more!
