#14 - Intuitive Eating Deep Dive: Joyful Movement & Gentle Nutrition

This week, Naomi & Sadie wrap up the Intuitive Eating Deep Dive series with a nuanced look at the concepts covered by the last two principles of Intuitive Eating, joyful movement and gentle nutrition. Exercise and nutrition are topics that are heavily influenced by diet culture, so these principles generally come last, both in theory and in practice. In this episode, we discuss: why it's beneficial to disconnect movement from weight loss goals; what we mean when we talk about joyful movement; why we might need to take breaks from movement altogether; common barriers to joyful movement; the myth of perfect nutrition; and how to avoid turning nutrition into a diet.
