Body Kindness

This is a show about health, not weight loss. It’s time to redefine what it means to pursue health, where your well-being matters more than your weight. When you practice Body Kindness®, you create a more satisfying life by being good to yourself. Learn how self-compassion and acceptance help you cultivate a “caregiver” voice and quiet the “inner critic”. HAES Dietitian and Certified Exercise Physiologist Rebecca Scritchfield and her guests have interesting conversations about the cultural influences that keep you stuck in “diet prison” and how you can break free to create meaningful changes in your life. Instead of dieting, you’ll practice self-care, including better sleep, flexible eating patterns, having more fun, and moving in way that feels good, not punishing. Regular guest Bernie Salazar, a former Biggest Loser “winner” shares why he’s happier and healthier as a fat man.

    The Switch Witch with Bernie Salazar

    Reunion alert! Bernie and I are back with our first podcast in a minute. We actually recorded this October 20, 2022... but evidently the Switch B* (err... I mean...) The Switch Witch is still around... and we have thoughts. My kids (then 8 and 9 years old) came to me and asked "Mom, do we believe in the switch witch?" I responded, "Never heard of her." They said, "Good, because she takes away your candy and that's just MEAN!." After some assurance from me, the girls decided to make a "Go Away" sign and put it over their Halloween buckets. Bernie has his own story to share about discovering the book and what to make of it for his young kids. If you know Bernie at all, you know he has a looooooooong history of being harmed by diet culture. He's trying to break the chain as a father and protect his kids. Based on our values and viewpoints, you probably can guess what we think of this... here's what you need to know: Switch Witch is for PROFIT... selling this idea that the "switch witch" is your friend who plays with you the days leading up to Halloween and surprises you with a gift in exchange for some of your Halloween candy. They sell the idea "All the fun without all the candy!" (So, YOU get to be KIND to this supposed "friend," and this B takes your candy?! Make it make sense!) It's marketed as a "healthy" Halloween tradition. Tune in and have a happy Halloween by trusting yourself, your preferences, and your relationship to food. If you want to do something "healthy," brush your teeth before bed. Visit bodykindnessbook.com/180 for links and show notes

    #179 - Treating Your Anxiety with Kindness with The Anxiety Sisters

    My guests Abbe Greenberg and Maggie a.k.a. “The Anxiety Sisters” have built a lasting friendship and a thriving online community over their lifelong struggles with anxiety. In this episode, you’ll learn about why there is no one-size-fits-all approach to managing anxiety and how their new book THE ANXIETY SISTERS’ SURVIVAL GUIDE can help you cope with anxiety and find ways to laugh along the way. That may sound strange, but seriously, this book has humor and actually makes anxiety seem fun, or at least less overwhelming and lonely. Visit bodykindnessbook.com/179 for links and show notes.

    What If I'm 'Too Numb' to Connect? with Bernie Salazar

    Hey, listeners! Bernie and I continue our conversations on 'connection' and 'numbness' as we re-connect to each other after a year or so apart (thanks global pandemic). This is episode 2 of 3 in our series where Bernie goes deeper in describing his feelings of numbness and explores more about where they are coming from, why they're there and what he can do now. I chime in with my usual... 'it's OK to be here, wow look at your strengths, B... and let's make sense of this...' rah rah support. With heart and humor, we tackle what it feels like when you're spiraling down and disconnected. CW: Bernie re-discloses a childhood trauma, he doesn't go into any detail about it, the focus is not on his trauma. It's a naming and an acknowledgement. === Other episodes mentioned Podcast 177 - Bouncing Back from Numbness with Bernie Salazar Podcast 161 – 2020 Burnout: Saving Our Mental Health for the Greater Good with Emily and Amelia Nagoski Visit bodykindnessbook.com/178 for links and show notes === This episode is sponsored by Self Care for Diabetes.
