    Healthy Without The Hurt: How to Stop Bullying Yourself Into Being Healthy // Empowered Eating Series: Redefining Food And Fitness

    The Empowered Eating Series: Redefining Food and Fitness Welcome to the Empowered Eating series! In the next four episodes we are going to dive into the complex and often conflicting messages surrounding diet and fitness. From the rise of diet culture in the 20th century to the current popularity of intuitive eating, we explore how these extremes can influence our relationship with food and our bodies.   Key Points: Diet Culture: Rooted in the idea that certain foods are "good" or "bad." Emphasizes the "thin ideal," promoting thinness as the ultimate goal. Can lead to obsessive behavior and an unhealthy focus on appearance over well-being. Intuitive Eating (IE): Encourages individuals to trust their bodies and eat according to internal cues. Values all foods equally, aiming to remove guilt and restriction from eating. While effective in reducing food-related obsession, it can lack clear nutritional guidance. The Middle Path - Empowered Eating: Combines the best of nutrition science with intuitive principles. Focuses on health and well-being rather than appearance. Encourages a balanced approach where food is enjoyed but not used as a primary coping mechanism.   Join the Empowered Era Coaching Group Hey there! 🌟 If you resonated with today's discussion on empowered eating and want to continue exploring how to create a healthier relationship with food and your body, I'd love to invite you to join our Empowered Era Group.

Reduce Extreme Thinking Move away from rigid categories of "good" and "bad" foods. Understand that while some foods may be healthier than others, viewing nutrition in black-and-white terms can create unnecessary anxiety. 2. Learn About Nutrition Without Perfection Educate yourself on nutrition, but remember—no one eats perfectly all the time. Focus on balanced and sustainable eating rather than striving for perfection. 3. Listen to Your Body Practice eating when you’re hungry and stopping when you’re full. If you’ve been going long periods without eating and then bingeing, aim to eat regularly every 3-4 hours. Start noticing your fullness cues and honor them by stopping when you feel satisfied. 4. Practice Mindful Eating Slow down and savor your food. Be aware of how it tastes and feels in your mouth. Enjoy the experience of eating without distractions—just be present with your meal. 5. Embrace Self-Compassion Your worth as a person isn’t tied to perfect nutrition or having the "ideal" body. Show yourself kindness and compassion, especially when you feel like you’ve fallen short. 6. Identify Moderate Eating Behaviors Moderate eating means flexibility, not rigidity. If finding balance is challenging, consider seeking help from a dietitian or therapist. Professionals can assist you in defining what moderate, healthy eating looks like for you. 7. Focus on Whole Foods, But Enjoy Your Favorites Prioritize whole foods that are close to their natural state—like whole grain bread over highly refined options. However, it’s important to leave room for treats and your favorite foods too. Unless medically advised, there’s no need to cut out entire food groups. Thank you for tuning in! Finding balance with food doesn’t have to mean swinging between extremes. By incorporating these tips, you
