Happy Satiated Saturday! Have you ever noticed that the strongest memories are the ones where you felt the most presence and embodiment? I will never forget my first yoga class because when I was shaking while holding a plank, I couldn't be anywhere else but in my body. At the beginning of your eating recovery, you may feel disconnected and dissociated. Your body has felt like an unsafe place to inhabit. Food has served as a wise strategy to create distance from your body or a micro-moment of feeling alive. Creating safety with food is less about food and more about expanding your capacity to be in your body while you eat, feel, and live. Embodiment is often the missing piece in healing your food coping mechanisms. In this week's episode, I chat with Ann Saffi Biasetti, Transpersonal Psychologist and Eating Disorder Expert, about: What embodiment isThe importance of creating safe and comfortable embodying experiencesThe process of embodimentCreating a language for describing body sensations and emotionsHow embodiment can impact food behaviorsWhat the ongoing journey of embodiment looks likeYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/embodiment-in-eating-recoveryThe next Somatic Eating® Program starts on May 22nd.
