-
- Nutrition
In this episode of the Joyful Health Show, we dive into the deeply personal journey of postpartum body image, faith, and self-discovery. In this episode, we follow the path of a mother with two littles, unpacking the challenges of regaining her body after breastfeeding, struggling with weight fluctuations, and understanding impact of faith with her body image. We explore the transformation from a scale-centric focus to a holistic approach, incorporating faith, nutrition, and self-awareness. Lindsey shares practical tips on inviting God into daily routines, listening to the Holy Spirit, and reshaping self-talk.
Takeaways:
Embrace Holistic Postpartum Body Image: Understand that postpartum health isn't just about weight but about overall well-being. Focus on strength, self-care, and activities that bring joy, not a number on the scale.
Listen to Your Body and the Holy Spirit: Incorporate mindfulness into daily activities, from eating to working out. Listen to your body's needs and invite the Holy Spirit into your moments of hunger, exercise, and self-reflection.
Transform Your Self-Talk: Challenge and reshape the way you speak to yourself about your body and eating habits. Invite God into this internal dialogue, fostering a positive and Christ-centered mindset.
Our hope is that you would walk away from this episode feeling a little more seen and known. You are not alone in the struggle, and you have a heavenly Father taking care of you as you take care of children of your own. You are his, and you are loved.
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30
