Tuning into Your Body: The Role of Intuitive Eating in Recovery

It's cool to be able to see how your body, when you truly are able to listen to your body, you're not going to truly want to go overboard.
What if you could transform your relationship with food by simply listening to your body? In this episode of 'The Recovery Journey', host Maria Danielle teams up with special guest Jo Runke to dive deep into the world of intuitive eating. Forget diet culture and its rigid rules—this conversation is all about reconnecting with your body's natural hunger and fullness cues, even while navigating the rocky road of recovery.
Maria kicks things off by sharing her own experiences with intuitive eating, revealing how it helped her overcome binge urges and develop a healthier relationship with food. Jo joins in, recounting her personal journey and the impact of growing up with a mother who had an eating disorder. Her story is a testament to the power of intuitive eating in rewiring the brain and fostering a positive connection with one's body.
Throughout the episode, Maria and Jo discuss the critical importance of providing your body with the nutrition it needs to function optimally. They also touch on the significance of teaching children healthy eating habits from a young age, aiming to break the cycle of diet culture before it even begins. One of the most compelling parts of their conversation is about food freedom—challenging those pesky food rules that can make you feel guilty for enjoying a simple treat.
Maria shares an anecdote about a friend's experience with an overeaters anonymous club, where she felt restricted from ever having a brownie again. This episode encourages listeners to reclaim their right to enjoy food without guilt or shame. By the end, you'll feel inspired to start listening to your body and find joy in eating once more.
Whether you're in recovery or just looking to improve your relationship with food, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice to help you on your journey.
