why can't our families be "normal" about food? Break the Diet Cycle
-
- Nutrição
Do you ever just wish your family was “normal’ when it came to food and body image stuff?
Especially as you start to learn more about Intuitive Eating and Health at Every Size, you can’t help but grieve what could have been if only YOUR mother had learned to break the diet cycle so that you didn't have to.
What would life be like if diet culture weren't such a big part of your family's story? I think about that all the time for my own family. And the truth is, we both may never know. What I do know is that grief around your experience with family diet trauma can feel more tender around the holidays as you may be spending more time back inside the family unit your diet trauma came from.
How do we allow differences within our family's healing journey work while also protecting our peace and calm as adult children of chronic dieters? Are we doomed to stay stuck in our family diet trauma?
With Thanksgiving this week and the holidays around the corner, Melissa is taking you beyond “boundary setting tips” by helping you consider:
What does it mean to have a “normal” family when it comes to food and body image?
What generational diet response are you most likely to experience over the holidays?
What boundaries can- and cannot - do for your Intuitive Eating practice
How to cope with kindness while practicing boundary setting with family stuck in diet culture (who might not understand...)
The pros and cons of different types of boundary setting techniques you see on social media
