133. Jenna Hollenstein: Intuitive Eating for Life

Ready to get off the diet roller coaster? Jenna Hollenstein is hanging out with us today to discuss how mindfulness can deepen and sustain your intuitive eating practice. 

Jenna is a nutrition therapist, meditation teacher, and author of five books. Her work combines intuitive eating, trauma-sensitive mindfulness, Polyvagal theory, and other embodied modalities.

As someone who has struggled with yo-yo dieting and emotional and binge eating, I can't recommend this episode enough. 

We talk about... 

- What intuitive eating is

- What it looks like to intuitively eat

- Why it’s important to eat enough food  

- What tends to drive binge behaviors

- How to reach satisfaction through food

- What happens when you restrict food

- Why intuitive eating is not a diet

- What makes diet culture so sneaky 

- Why having a perfect body is not your job

- How the thought of restriction can trigger chaotic thinking around food
