Body acceptance and cultivating softness

An unhealthy relationship with the body and food is no longer limited to anorexia, bulimia, and obesity. Early in my career as a psychologist in Germany, most of the women and men who came into the clinic had problems related to those three categories. With the influx of fad diets, nutritional trends, and changes in the ideal female and male bodies, new categories of unhealthy relationships with food and our bodies have emerged.

There are two main issues at the root of all difficulties around eating and body acceptance:

1. Body image – the gap between how I experience my body and my real body

2. Emotional eating – using food as the main way of dealing with emotions, whether negative or positive

Emotional eating

Has food become for you a way of dealing with emotions?

Do you feel bad and guilty after eating?

Do you have difficulty breathing and moving due to overeating?

Do you have eating binges during the day or at night?

Are you tired of treating your body like a trash can?

 

Do you want to acquire alternative ways of coping instead of emotional eating?

Do you want to start moving and learn how to breathe right?

Do you want to break the cycle of food-guilt-frustration-food?
