Being on a diet is their norm, and theyre convinced the next one will finally bring them contentedness.
Living your life obsessed with weight and food is exhausting.
Developing a healthy relationship to food and your body is a complex process, and it doesnt occur overnight.
But here are the four main elements Ive found most people need for start healing:
1.
Self-love
Self-compassion isnt about believing youre perfect or loving every inch of your body.
Its about treating yourself as the imperfect human being that you are.
This is a long process and requires you to take time deepening your connection to yourself.
Finding or creating purposeshifts the pressure away from our bodies as the determinant of our self-worth.
Suddenly, those extra pounds or cellulite lose their power over our mood.
So if youre food- and weight-obsessed, it could be a sign that youre seeking meaning.
Acceptance of your happy, sustainable weight.
This is your sustainable weight.
