Intuitive Eating is an incredible approach for people seeking to heal their relationships with food and their bodies. But it's not without its challenges. In this episode I speak with the wonderful Jenna Hollenstein, who brings years of experience as a non-diet dietitian and meditation teacher to the table to help us understand how to tolerate the discomfort that so often arises in one's journey into intuitive eating. 

We talk about:

  • What do meditation and Buddhism have to offer those on the Intuitive eating path?
  • The importance of eating enough
  • How one starts to make peace with food, and challenge food rules that seem second nature
  • What is interoception, and why is it important? 
  • The co-opting of mindfulness
  •  The difference between doing this work as self-improvement VS doing it as self care
  • Intuitive eating and mindfulness can be doorways into a pleasure practice
