#61: The Body Awareness Project: Toxic Skincare Products and Body Intuition Meathead Hippie

    • Health & Fitness

In this special episode of Meathead Hippie, Em highlights two (out of many) of her most favorite clips from The Body Awareness Project Part One: Skin which is all about addressing the root causes of skin issues by looking deeper into our bodies. Lauren Geertsen brings awareness to the body’s “sacred symptoms” and stresses the importance of becoming attuned to the messages that our bodies are trying to send us. Lauren provides several steps on how to listen to your own body’s intuition in order to understand its place in your healing journey. In addition to Lauren’s piece, Diane Sanfilippo talks about the importance of knowing what we are putting on our skin with beauty and skin care products. Diane provides a great amount of useful tips on how to get rid of the harmful ingredients that are problematic to our systems by replacing them with ones that will work best for YOU. “If we know that there is something that we can change with our personal care, it is just another step that can prevent ourselves from using harmful products.”
