In this motivational minisode, Sherry Shaban discusses our relationship with food, the self, and how our perception of health and fitness can significantly impact our well-being. We are challenged to re-evaluate our intentions behind lifestyle changes, and Sherry emphasizes the importance of internal transformation for achieving lasting external results.

Sherry begins by discussing the commonalities in health and fitness journeys, addressing the issue of self-punishment through rigorous dieting and exercise. With vulnerability and honesty, she points out the harsh inner dialogue that frequently accompanies attempts at physical transformation and offers a contrasting, compassion-centered approach. As Sherry unfolds the distinction between emotional and physical hunger, she provides practical advice on discerning the root cause of our cravings, emphasizing the nervous system's critical role in managing our eating behaviors.

By guiding listeners to a deeper understanding of hunger cues and the triggers behind eating patterns, Sherry highlights the power of tuning into one's body and mind.

Intuitive eating is about more than just listening to your body's hunger and fullness cues. It's a mindset shift that can transform your relationship with food. In today’s minisode, host Sherry Shaban discusses the concept of intuitive eating. She explains that intuitive eating is about listening to your body's natural cues for hunger and fullness, but cautions that it can backfire if you're receiving cues from the reptilian part of your brain in protection mode.

Sherry emphasizes the importance of addressing the nervous system and shifting into safety mode before attempting intuitive eating. She also invites listeners to explore the Make Peace with Food program and schedule a free strategy call.
