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

12/29/21 • 75 min

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.

#13 - Intuitive Eating Deep Dive: Respect Your Body

This week, Naomi & Sadie do a deep dive into Intuitive Eating Principle #8 - Respect Your Body. This episode is a great companion to Episode #3 - Body Feelings Are About More Than Our Bodies. While that episode covered a lot of the theory around our body feelings, this week's episode digs into some of the practices that can help us to cultivate body respect. This episode covers: how to deal with negative self-talk, why it's important to stop comparing ourselves to others, why representation of body diversity matters, why ditching the scale boosts body respect, what body-checking is & why it might be keeping us stuck, and a whole lot more!

#15 - New Year, Same Us!

Get ready for a fun & candid New Year's episode! It’s officially 2022, and Naomi is still rebelling against structure & rigidity, and Sadie is still loving a schedule and a well-established plan. Even though we both function from two pretty opposite operational styles, we both agree that setting any kind of New Year’s resolution, intention, or goal should be something you WANT to do, not something you feel like you HAVE to do because it’s January. There’s nothing magical about January 1st. We’re chatting about all things New Year's: setting realistic resolutions, dry January, a few fun rants about Noom, sugar fasts, detoxes, & WW...and more!
