On this episode, I jump on solo to share a little bit of my own journey with body, food and learning to heal my relationship with myself. During eating disorders awareness week, I wanted to share a bit of my own healing journey and talk about how reframing "negative emotions" became a massive tool in my journey back home to myself. Often we're taught that certain emotions are good and certain emotions are bad. But the truth is, ALL emotions are valid and necessary. To be fully human is to give ourselves permission to feel all emotion. In my own journey of healing my relationship with my body, I had to learn how to feel fully, and all the way through an emotion so that I could stop using food as a tool to cope with the emotion that just wanted to be felt. On this episode I talk about self compassion, how we can begin (and continue) to practice radical self acceptance.I talk about practical tools to slow down and allow your body to speak to you. And I talk about how to reframe "negative emotions" and why they're so important to feel. If you want to check out Beauty Counter, or if you have any other thoughts, reach out on Instagram @bykaraelise. I'd love to connect!!

Her own journey led her to explore holistic healing and finding ways to marry western and eastern medicine. On this episode we talk about holistic health and how our bodies are so connected that sometimes physical aliments can be a manifestation of something inner. We talk about practical ways to use both food and inner work to help heal symptoms that are showing up in your body.
