Reconnecting with Your Body: Philippe Tahon’s Guide to Self-Acceptance

We should make peace with who we are and how we look. And by making peace, I'm not saying we should accept the extra weight. We can work on this, we can try and understand how we got there and how we can change things. But we won't change anything as long as we're at war with ourselves.
Ever feel like your mind and body are on completely different pages? In this eye-opening episode of 'Shrink', psychotherapist and coach Philippe Tahon dives into the often fraught relationship we have with our bodies. Philippe explores why we tend to see our minds and bodies as separate entities, leading to a constant internal battle.
He shares his wisdom on making peace with your body, not just by accepting it as it is, but by understanding how you got here and how to move forward without self-criticism. Philippe encourages listeners to discover their real healthy weight – the one that fits their lifestyle and can be maintained without endless dieting. He sheds light on how the obsession with weight and body shape often prioritizes appearance over genuine health.
The key, according to Philippe, is connecting your brain with your body so that they function as a harmonious whole. This episode offers valuable insights into the impact of dieting on self-esteem, the importance of habit change, and the journey towards self-acceptance. Philippe’s empathetic approach provides a refreshing perspective on achieving well-being without waging war on yourself. Tune in for practical advice and heartfelt encouragement to help you embrace a healthier, more connected version of yourself.
