Podcasts about Restriction

Michelle starts by naming the experience so many listeners know well: the panicky, out-of-control feeling around “forbidden” foods that seems to prove you're an addict. She traces where that story came from—the early 2000s brain-scan headlines—and why “lights up the reward pathways” doesn't equal addiction (music, hugs, laughter, and puppy greetings light them up, too). From there, she walks through what the evidence does show:Dopamine ≠ addiction: Dopamine is about motivation and learning (“That was satisfying; remember that”), not proof of a hijacked brain. Drug-induced dopamine spikes are extreme and rewiring; food-related responses are moderate and self-limiting.What the rat studies actually found: Binge-like behavior appears when access to sugar is restricted and then reintroduced; with free access, intake levels out. In humans, dieting and moralizing foods replicate this deprivation-binge pattern.Addiction criteria don't fit food: Medical addiction involves tolerance, withdrawal syndromes, persistent use despite harm, and inability to cut down. Systematic reviews report that foods don't meet those criteria. Food is also essential—abstinence-based models don't translate.Michelle then maps the very human reasons it feels like addiction:Restriction & deprivation (physical and mental) create scarcity, obsession, and urgency.Emotional reliance on food as a primary coping tool can look compulsive—but it's coping, not character failure.Learned urgency/“last-supper” eating when a food is allowed only during a “slip.”She also names the harm of the addiction label: added shame, escalation to stricter restriction (which worsens the cycle), and attention pulled away from the real drivers—diet mentality, unmet needs, and nervous-system dysregulation.From there, the episode offers a compassionate, evidence-aligned path forward:Lift the ban with unconditional permission to eat (expect an initial “pendulum swing”; it settles as scarcity fades).Practice food neutrality (take the moral charge out of foods).Pursue satisfaction so you can actually register “enough.”Support your nervous system (capacity first; choice follows).Add coping tools beyond food (connection, creativity, movement, rest).Reframe the story: from “I'm addicted” to “Restriction is making me feel out of control; my body is protecting me.”Stay ConnectedIf this episode helped, follow/subscribe so you don't miss the rest of the series.

In this candid Q&A episode, I answer real questions from my Body Love Binge group coaching members. I tackle the tough topics around eating disorder recovery with my signature no-BS compassion and practical wisdom - recorded spontaneously while my husband took our baby out to test the new pushchair!Key Quotes from the Episode:"Going all in isn't a behaviour you can measure. Going all in is how you show up internally - and it's all about what is manageable for YOU.""Restriction isn't an action, it's a state of mind. If you have a restrictive mind, anything will be turned into a diet.""Recovery is the foundation of the rest of your life. It's not the finish line.""The only difference between a dream and a goal is a plan and the belief that it's gonna happen.""When you're fully recovered, other people's behaviors around food and exercise won't affect you anymore. You'll be completely free."What I Cover in This Episode:• Managing panic zone vs stretch zone - How to take recovery actions without re-traumatising yourself and why staying in your comfort zone won't work• Intuitive eating vs intuition eating - Why I don't use traditional intuitive eating guidelines and my approach to eating for pure pleasure• Breaking free from food habits and rules - How to stop turning hunger/fullness into another diet and why eating the same foods can be perfectly fine• Making room for cake - Permission to eat less nutritious food to save space for treats you're excited about• Signs of true recovery - Physical, mental, and emotional markers that show you've reached full freedom (plus what to do with your life after recovery)• Dealing with ED voice arguing back - Why the eating disorder might get louder deeper in recovery and how to handle the internal negotiations• Making regular eating non-negotiable - Practical strategies for consistent eating when you're full, emotional, or overwhelmed by meal prep• Body image in recovery - Moving from body hate to neutrality to unconditional love, and why you don't have to like how you look to be free• Living with a fitness-obsessed partner - How to protect your recovery when your partner's exercise and food behaviours are triggering• Recovery isn't linear - Understanding that setbacks and challenges are part of the process, not signs of failureMy approach combines trauma-informed recovery principles with practical, real-world strategies that honour where each person is in their unique journey toward food and body freedom.

Send us a textThe effects of protein restriction on metabolism, liver hormones, brain, and behavior.Episode Summary: Dr. Christopher Morrison talks about how animals sense and prioritize nutrients like protein, discussing defense mechanisms for essentials such as oxygen, water, sodium, and energy; the brain's role in detecting protein deprivation via signals like FGF21; trade-offs between growth, reproduction, and longevity under protein restriction; and reconciling high-protein diets for satiety and muscle maintenance with low-protein benefits for metabolic health and lifespan extension.About the guest: Christopher Morrison, PhD is a professor and researcher at the Pennington Biomedical Research Center in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where he has worked for over 22 years focusing on nutrition, metabolism, and chronic diseases like obesity and diabetes.Discussion Points:The body prioritizes nutrients hierarchically: oxygen and water first, then sodium, energy, and protein, with weaker defenses for carbs or fats.Animals develop specific appetites for deprived nutrients, like salt or protein, often through post-ingestive learning rather than just taste.Protein restriction (e.g., 5% vs. 20% in diets) increases food intake and energy expenditure in mice to maintain protein levels, even at the cost of extra calories.FGF21, a liver hormone, signals protein deprivation to the brain (via NTS region), driving protein-seeking behavior and metabolic changes; it's essential for low-protein responses.Protein restriction extends lifespan in lab animals by suppressing growth signals like IGF-1 and mTOR, but may impair immunity or wound healing in real-world conditions.High protein aids satiety, weight loss, and muscle building, but overconsumption may shorten lifespan; optimal intake depends on age, activity, and goals (e.g., not for pregnant or elderly).No one-size-fits-all for protein: mild restriction may benefit middle-aged sedentary people for health, while athletes need more; balance avoids excesses.Related content:M&M 106: Diet, Macronutrients, Micronutrients, Taste, Whole vs. Processed Food, Obesity & Weight Loss, Comparative Biology of Feeding Behavior | Stephen Simpson & David Raubenheimer*Not medical advice.Support the showAffiliates: Seed Oil Scout: Find restaurants with seed oil-free options, scan food products to see what they're hiding, with this easy-to-use mobile app. KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + electrolytes formulated for kidney health.

La Tanzanie a annoncé fin juillet une interdiction pour les ressortissants étrangers de posséder ou gérer des entreprises dans plusieurs secteurs. La directive provoque un tollé chez son voisin, le Kenya. Alors que Dodoma dit vouloir défendre ses intérêts économiques, Nairobi estime que cette nouvelle mesure va à l'encontre des principes de la Communauté des États d'Afrique de l'Est, dont les deux pays sont membres. Salons de beauté, boutiques de souvenirs, transferts de monnaie sur mobile : en tout, 15 secteurs sont concernés par cette nouvelle directive en Tanzanie. Elle vise à protéger les Tanzaniens de la compétition étrangère. Mais elle provoque la grogne du voisin kényan. L'Association des conducteurs du Kenya dit avoir reçu des appels inquiets, notamment de la part des guides touristiques : « Ils font partie de la liste des emplois désormais interdits pour les étrangers, précise Peter Murima, président de cette association professionnelle. Or, nous avons beaucoup de guides qui travaillent autour de la frontière, dans les parcs de Serengeti en Tanzanie ou Amboseli au Kenya. Dans le secteur du transport aussi, nous avons eu des retours de membres qui dénoncent le fait d'avoir déjà été visés par des contrôles superflus de la part des forces de l'ordre. » Frein aux investissements en Tanzanie ? Au-delà des petits entrepreneurs kényans, les conséquences de cette mesure pourraient être plus larges. « C'est le signal qu'envoie cette nouvelle mesure qui est très important, souligne James Shikwati, directeur de l'Inter Region Economic Network, un think tank économique basé à Nairobi. Ce sont les petites entreprises qui sont visées, mais les grandes compagnies observent tout cela et s'en inquiètent. La confiance s'érode et cela pourrait freiner les investissements du Kenya vers la Tanzanie. » Décision politique Cet économiste y voit aussi une décision politique, avant les élections d'octobre prochain en Tanzanie. Les autorités kényanes, elles, ont dénoncé une mesure qui va à l'encontre de la Communauté des États d'Afrique de l'Est (EAC) et de son Protocole de marché commun. Nairobi a toutefois assuré ne pas réciproquer pour l'instant, pour donner une chance au dialogue. « Rivalité par intermittence » Avec le Kenya, qui se plaint aussi de frais de visas pour ses ressortissants souhaitant faire du business en Tanzanie, les tensions ne sont pas nouvelles. « Le Kenya et la Tanzanie ont toujours entretenu une sorte de rivalité par intermittence, rappelle James Shikwati. La Tanzanie a eu un président radical, Magufuli, qui était davantage tourné vers l'intérieur dans ses politiques économiques. Il a notamment chassé les investisseurs étrangers du secteur minier, de certains emplois. Or, son ancienne vice-présidente est la présidente actuelle. » L'EAC a rappelé dans un communiqué que les États partenaires du Protocole de marché commun s'étaient engagés à « promouvoir l'intégration régionale en supprimant les obstacles au commerce, aux services et aux investissements ».

Happy Satiated Saturday! I find it fascinating to explore the layers and layers of connections between trauma and food behaviors. Trauma alters the way you experience bodily sensations. A racing heart can feel like panic rather than excitement. An empty stomach might trigger fear rather than curiosity about food. Over time, the body learns to suppress or disconnect from these cues in an attempt to stay safe. ​Body detachment provided you​ with short term safety, but affected your ability to know how you feel, to understand if you're hungry or full, or to know what you need and when.​ This lowered your interoception or ability to sense and interpret your internal signals in your body. In this week's episode, I chat about: Interoceptive confusionHow low interoception effects food behaviorsTrauma and interoception connectionInteroception practices you can start todayYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/how-trauma-alters-your-sense-of-self-and-eating-habitsI also provide some updates at the end of this episode so be sure to listen to the end! With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxNewsletter Signup: https://www.stephaniemara.com/subscribeReclaim Your Body Image Workshop: https://satiated.mykajabi.com/offers/EkFBjX2QMove Through Binge Urges Workshop: https://satiated.mykajabi.com/offers/nRo7qyFd/checkoutSomatic Eating® Program Waitlist: https://www.somaticeating.com/Free Connect Call to work 1:1: https://www.stephaniemara.com/lets-chatSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

"You can accomplish feeling like the best version of yourself no matter what age you are. It's very different than all the approaches we're hearing out there." - Nagina Abdullah Nagina Abdullah is a leading weight loss coach specializing in empowering women in midlife to achieve lasting health transformations. As the founder of the renowned website MasalaBody.com, she has personally coached over 1,500 women to successfully lose weight permanently by optimizing their metabolism. Utilizing her background in molecular and cell biology from UC Berkeley, Nagina combines scientific principles with practical lifestyle changes, including strategic use of metabolism-boosting foods and spices. Episode Summary: In this episode of "Oh, My Health... There Is Hope!" host Jana Short welcomes Nagina Abdullah, a prolific weight loss coach renowned for her expertise in helping midlife women achieve sustainable weight loss. Nagina discusses the science-backed strategies she uses to boost metabolism, address sugar cravings, and guide women toward a healthier lifestyle. She shares her personal journey of overcoming weight loss challenges and how she engineered a lifestyle shift for herself after experiencing menopause-induced weight gain. The conversation delves into actionable insights on dietary strategies that focus on increasing protein intake and understanding the role of metabolism-boosting foods. Nagina emphasizes that traditional dieting and calorie restriction can be counterproductive, especially during midlife. She offers practical advice on incorporating healthy foods and spices into daily meals. Nagina also introduces her upcoming five-day metabolism boost event as an opportunity for women to learn and transform their health journey, focusing on practical, sustainable changes that align with life's demands. Key Takeaways: Nagina Abdullah emphasizes the importance of boosting metabolism through the strategic addition of nutritious foods rather than restrictive dieting. Incorporating 30 grams of protein per meal is crucial to stabilizing blood sugar, reducing sugar cravings, and promoting sustainable weight loss in midlife. The transition into menopause requires a revised approach to dieting, focusing on metabolism and anti-inflammatory foods to counteract hormonal changes. Midlife dietary approaches should aim to maintain steady blood sugar levels, counteracting the body's tendency towards insulin resistance.

Michael J. Wilkinson, M.D., F.A.C.C., F.N.L.A., explores the science and clinical evidence behind intermittent fasting and its role in promoting cardiometabolic health. He explains how aligning eating patterns with the body's natural circadian rhythms can improve weight, blood pressure, glucose regulation, and other risk factors, especially in individuals with metabolic syndrome or type 2 diabetes. Wilkinson highlights promising results from time-restricted eating studies conducted in collaboration with UC San Diego and the Salk Institute, where narrowing the daily eating window led to improved metabolic markers and potential benefits beyond weight loss. He also outlines practical tips for safely adopting this lifestyle approach and stresses the importance of ongoing research.

How to balance flow and restriction.

What if your struggle with food isn't about willpower—but about unhealed pain?In this raw and powerful episode of Normalize The Conversation, trauma-informed coach and Out of the Cave founder Lisa Schlosberg, LMSW, shares her personal journey from childhood obesity to extreme dieting—and how she finally broke free from diet culture for good.We explore:✅ The toxic truth behind diet culture and emotional eating✅ How restriction and obsession with weight keep us stuck✅ Why lasting healing is about compassion, not control✅ How to build a peaceful relationship with food, body image, and selfThis is not another weight loss story. It's a conversation about freedom.

Why does letting go of food restriction feel unsafe, even when you're ready to recover? In this solo episode, Dr. Marianne explores how restriction can become a form of survival. She discusses the ways restriction may provide a sense of control, structure, or identity, especially for those who are neurodivergent, live in marginalized bodies, or have trauma histories. You will learn about the difference between egosyntonic restriction, which feels aligned with your values, and egodystonic restriction, which feels distressing. This insight can help make sense of your internal conflict and guide you toward a more compassionate approach to healing. This episode offers a perspective rooted in liberation, not compliance. Dr. Marianne invites you to honor the role restriction has played in your life while also creating new ways to feel safe and supported in your body.

Do you think it's restrictive to keep watch of your diet and weight? Do you keep chopping and changing your approach with fluctuating weight outcomes and lots of mind chatter about food and eating? Do you constantly lose weight and then put it back on or feel like you're always battling the same ten pounds?If so, this is a brilliant episode which explains why it's so important to stay vigilant to how/what/when/why you're eating and to acknowledge it's a life-long commitment that will mean you ultimately feel the best you possibly can. Let's leave the restriction and limiting mindsets in the past. It's time to up-level... and vigilance is part of it!*If you're interested in having a coach to help you apply this approach to your life and make it a longerm, permanent solution to your eating and weight, join my next intake for my Signature 1:1 Eating & Drinking Habit Change Programme. Find out more >Book your consultation call here >

Happy Satiated Saturday! After years and years of navigating food cravings, it was the field of somatics that started to shift my perception of them. I used to think of cravings as something I had to do battle with and couldn't listen to until I realized that I was defining listening to cravings as abiding by them and that listening to my craving meant I needed to eat the food some part of me was telling me to eat. I now experience and teach that cravings are bodily messengers. Cravings are meant to be listened to by bringing in curiosity about what the body might be trying to relay through having you want to eat a particular food. In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Jenn Trepeck, Certified Health & Nutrition Coach, about: Decoding cravingsThe nutritional and blood sugar aspects to cravingsThe role of guilt in cravingsPractical strategies to navigating your food cravingsYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode here: www.stephaniemara.com/blog/understanding-the-science-behind-food-cravingsWith Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Jenn:Website: https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/ Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/salad-with-a-side-of-fries-nutrition-wellness-weight-loss/id1476096152Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jenntrepeck/?hl=enSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

Have you ever wondered why recovery feels unsafe if you are autistic, or why masking can look like restriction? In this episode, Dr. Marianne examines the overlooked intersection of autism and anorexia. She explains how autistic masking, the survival strategy of hiding or suppressing traits to “fit in,” can overlap with food restriction and why recovery often feels unsafe in treatment spaces that center neurotypical experiences. Dr. Marianne explores how sensory sensitivities, alexithymia, executive functioning challenges, and monotropism can shape eating patterns for autistic individuals and how traditional recovery models fail to accommodate these realities. She also addresses intersectionality in recovery, highlighting that unmasking is riskier for BIPOC, disabled, fat, queer, and trans individuals whose overlapping identities increase the dangers of being fully visible in systems that marginalize them. She emphasizes why neurodivergent-affirming, sensory-attuned, and intersectional recovery spaces are essential. Recovery cannot be one-size-fits-all when it must account for layered oppression, systemic barriers, and the complex ways autistic traits interact with anorexia. Dr. Marianne also discusses the overlap between anorexia and ARFID (Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder), particularly among autistic people, and explains why understanding this overlap is crucial for effective and sustainable healing. If recovery has felt unsafe, Dr. Marianne wants listeners to know it is not because they have failed. It is because treatment often fails to recognize autism, honor intersecting identities, and adapt care to meet those realities. She believes every person deserves support that not only accommodates differences but celebrates them as integral to the healing process.

Jonah // Week 2 // A Whale Of A LessonJonah 1:11-12 NASB 11 So they said to him, “What should we do to you that the sea may become calm for us?”—for the sea was becoming increasingly stormy. 12 He said to them, “Pick me up and throw me into the sea. Then the sea will become calm for you, for I know that on account of me this great storm has come upon you.”Jonah 1:15-16 NASB 15 So they picked up Jonah, threw him into the sea, and the sea stopped its raging. 16 Then the men feared the Lord greatly, and they offered a sacrifice to the Lord and made vows.Jonah 1:17 NASB 17 And the Lord appointed a great fish to swallow Jonah, and Jonah was in the stomach of the fish three days and three nights.1. The SWALLOWING was for SALVATION.2. The RESTRICTION was for RESTORATION.Jonah 2:1-9 NASB1 Then Jonah prayed to the Lord his God from the stomach of the fish, 2 and he said, “I called out of my distress to the Lord,and He answered me. I cried for help from the depth of Sheol;You heard my voice. 3 “For You had cast me into the deep, into the heart of the seas, and the current engulfed me. All Your breakers and billows passed over me. 4 “So I said, ‘I have been expelled from Your sight. Nevertheless I will look again toward Your holy temple.' 5 “Water encompassed me to the point of death. The great deep engulfed me, Weeds were wrapped around my head. 6 “I descended to the roots of the mountains. The earth with its bars was around me forever,but You have brought up my life from the pit, O Lord my God. 7 “While I was fainting away,I remembered the Lord,and my prayer came to You, into Your holy temple. 8 “Those who regard vain idols forsake their faithfulness, 9 but I will sacrifice to You with the voice of thanksgiving.That which I have vowed I will pay. Salvation is from the Lord.”1. The SWALLOWING was for SALVATION.2. The RESTRICTION was for RESTORATION.3. The PURGING was for PROVISION.Jonah 2:10 NASB10 Then the Lord commanded the fish, and it vomited Jonah up onto the dry land.Jonah 3:1-3a NASB 1 Now the word of the Lord came to Jonah the second time, saying, 2 “Arise, go to Nineveh the great city and proclaim to it the proclamation which I am going to tell you.” 3a So Jonah arose and went to Nineveh according to the word of the Lord...1. The SWALLOWING was for SALVATION.2. The RESTRICTION was for RESTORATION.3. The PURGING was for PROVISION.

L'Irak fait face à l'une des sécheresses les plus graves de son histoire. Les terres du Croissant fertile de la Mésopotamie antique se détériorent et s'appauvrissent année après année sous les effets du changement climatique et de l'activité humaine. Cet été, les apports en eau venus des principaux fleuves irakiens sont trop faibles – peu de pluie cet hiver, et peu de délestage d'eau depuis la Turquie. C'est tout un patrimoine environnemental et historique qui souffre chaque année, et disparaît petit à petit, particulièrement dans le sud de l'Irak. À l'approche d'une écluse fermée qui sépare les marais de Chibayish du fleuve Euphrate, des mouches et une odeur nauséabonde emplissent l'air. Raed Al-Assadi, directeur de l'organisation pour l'Écotourisme de Chibayish : « Des centaines de tortues sont mortes. » La main sur le nez, Raed el-Assadi, constate la catastrophe. L'Euphrate a été coupé du réseau de canaux des marais pour conserver le plus d'eau possible pour la consommation humaine, ces tortues ont été prises au piège. « Ce sont des tortues qui migrent depuis les marais vers l'Euphrate parce que les eaux de l'Euphrate sont un peu meilleures que celles des marais qui sont très salées. Tu peux voir tout le long des marais de grands nombres d'animaux morts. Bien sûr, c'est un dérèglement clair et extrêmement grave de la chaîne de l'équilibre écologique en Irak. » Ces marais, classés au patrimoine mondial de l'Unesco depuis 2016, dépérissent. Seules 20% des zones marécageuses restent en eau cet été. Près d'une rive dénudée, dix buffles se baignent paisiblement, semble-t-il, mais l'eau des marais est devenue trop salée et la végétation change. Leur survie, à présent, dépend de ressources acheminées par bateau. Restriction de l'eau Leurs éleveurs, Kadhem et Razzaq, peinent à maintenir ces élevages traditionnels dans les marais : « Tous les jours, une bête meurt. Tout le monde est endetté à hauteur de 10, 15 ou 30 millions de dinars, pour du fourrage. Mais on ne peut pas abandonner. » Pour Razzaq Ismaël, un autre éleveur : « C'est notre culture, celle de nos ancêtres, c'est notre mode de vie et on le perpétue. » Mais la majorité des éleveurs est partie. Et même si certains reviendront lors de saisons plus clémentes, pour le directeur de l'Écotourisme de Chibayish, Raed el-Assadi, ce déplacement de population a déjà un effet sur le patrimoine local : « Tout change chez eux. Même leur manière de parler, on n'entend plus les mots ou les expressions propres aux habitants des marais. » Les éleveurs partent souvent vers le nord, mais la situation n'y est pas meilleure. Dans la province de Najaf à Mishkhab, connue pour l'odeur de ses plantations de riz ambre, depuis des siècles, il n'y a pas d'eau non plus et donc pas l'ombre d'une rizière. Abdel Ali al-Kuraity est agriculteur, ancien cultivateur de riz ambre : « Où peut-on encore trouver l'odeur du riz "ambre" ? Il n'y a plus d'eau. » L'agriculteur le reconnaît, l'irrigation par inondation pour cultiver ce riz, emblématique de la cuisine irakienne, n'est plus une option en ces temps de pénurie. Mais les restrictions sont sévères. Les canaux du village sont fermés depuis des mois : « La population dépendait de la culture du riz ambre, comme moyen de subsistance et source alimentaire principale. On a accepté de ne plus cultiver du riz, mais qu'on nous donne de l'eau ! » Les cultures alternatives se meurent elles aussi. Fouad, porte-parole de ces agriculteurs, s'emporte : « Nous ne sommes pas indemnisés. Que faire ? Émigrer ? Partir ? » D'année en année, les migrations vers les villes se multiplient Un exode qui complique la gestion des ressources en eau potable qui doivent être toujours plus réorientée vers les grandes agglomérations au détriment des zones rurales.   À lire aussiIrak: la sécheresse provoque la disparition des marais du sud du pays, joyaux du patrimoine de l'Unesco

This week's message is all about something we usually avoid — saying no. But what if restriction isn't about missing out, and is actually the key to living with more peace, focus, and freedom? Judah breaks down why boundaries are a gift, and how trust in God shapes the way we say no. If you're feeling stretched thin or stuck in overload, this message might be exactly what you didn't know you needed. Discussion Questions: 1. Where in your life do you need to start saying “no,” and what do you think might change if you actually did? 2. Do you see boundaries as burdens or blessings—and how might God be using them to protect or guide you? SUBSCRIBE TODAY for Weekly Service messages, Daily Guided Prayers, & more!

If you're trapped in the exhausting cycle of all-or-nothing thinking around food and recovery, this episode will revolutionize your entire approach. Fresh back from vacation, Lindsey shares the powerful "Both/And Recovery" strategy that finally breaks you free from black-and-white extremes and helps you find the beautiful gray area where real healing happens. You'll discover why perfectionist recovery keeps you stuck, learn specific Both/And reframes for common recovery struggles, and walk away with a tangible 3-step practice to implement this week. This isn't about being perfect at recovery—it's about being human while healing. What You'll Learn ✨ Why all-or-nothing thinking keeps you trapped in recovery cycles ✨ The revolutionary Both/And approach that changes everything ✨ Specific reframes for "good vs. bad" food thinking ✨ How to hold space for fear AND commitment simultaneously ✨ Why the "gray area" is where your freedom actually lives ✨ A practical 3-step method to implement Both/And thinking this week Key Takeaways The All-or-Nothing Prison Your brain categorizes everything as perfect or disaster, on-track or off-track, good foods or bad foods. This binary thinking keeps you swinging between extremes and never experiencing the freedom you crave. The space between extremes isn't the danger zone—it's where all the magic happens. The Both/And Revolution You can hold two seemingly opposite truths simultaneously, and this is where real healing occurs. Recovery isn't about choosing sides—it's about embracing complexity and being beautifully, imperfectly human. Why This Changes Everything The Both/And approach removes the pressure that keeps you stuck. When you stop trying to be perfect at recovery, you actually start recovering. Recovery isn't about eliminating difficult thoughts—it's about learning to hold space for all of it. Powerful Both/And Recovery Examples Fear & Courage Instead of: "I have to be brave to start recovery" Both/And: "I can be both scared of recovery AND committed to it" Restriction & Nourishment Instead of: "I either restrict or I'm out of control" Both/And: "I can both want to restrict AND choose to nourish myself" Body Image Struggles Instead of: "I have to love my body all the time" Both/And: "I can both love my body AND have days when I struggle with it" Food Morality Instead of: "Foods are either good or bad" Both/And: "I can be both 'good' at eating AND have chaotic food days" Recovery Process Instead of: "I'm either perfect at recovery or failing" Both/And: "I can be both in recovery AND not perfect at it" Weight & Health Instead of: "I'm either fat or skinny" Both/And: "I can both be my natural weight AND not love every inch every day" Structure & Flexibility Instead of: "I need rigid routine or I'm lost" Both/And: "I can both crave routine AND need flexibility" Your Both/And Recovery Practice (This Week) Step 1: Notice Your All-or-Nothing Thoughts Catch yourself thinking in extremes about food, body, or recovery. Examples: "I ruined the day" "I'm either on track or off track" "I have to be perfect at this" Step 2: Practice the Both/And Reframe Transform extreme thoughts with "both/and" language: "I both had a challenging food day AND I can nourish myself at my next meal" "I both struggled today AND I'm still committed to my healing" Step 3: Choose Your Next Right Action From this Both/And space, take one small step toward recovery: Eat your next planned meal Call a friend for support Practice self-compassion instead of self-criticism Revolutionary Quotes to Remember "The gray area you've been afraid of? That's not the danger zone—that's where your freedom lives." "Recovery isn't about eliminating all the difficult thoughts and feelings. Recovery is about learning to hold space for all of it—the fear AND the courage, the struggle AND the strength." "The moment you stop trying to be perfect at recovery is the moment you actually start recovering." "You can both feel uncertain about this approach AND try it anyway. You can both be scared of letting go of control AND take one small step toward freedom." "Your recovery doesn't have to be perfect to be powerful. Your healing doesn't have to be linear to be real." Personal Story: Post-Vacation Recovery Evolution Lindsey shares her transformation from post-vacation restriction panic to flexible re-entry into routine. Learn how the Both/And approach allows you to both crave structure AND ease back into real life without rigidity—a perfect metaphor for recovery itself. The Science Behind Both/And Thinking Why All-or-Nothing Thinking Develops Eating disorders thrive on binary thinking Perfectionism creates impossible standards Black-and-white thoughts feel "safer" but create more suffering How Both/And Thinking Heals Reduces perfectionist pressure Allows for human complexity Creates space for growth and mistakes Normalizes the recovery process Ready to Live the Both/And Approach? If this episode resonated but you're unsure how to implement Both/And thinking in your daily recovery, you don't have to figure it out alone. Take Your Recovery to the Next Level: In Lindsey's one-on-one coaching, you'll dive deep into applying the Both/And approach to your specific struggles—trigger foods, difficult emotions, body image challenges, all of it. Because knowing about this approach and actually living it are two different things. Next Steps: Fill out a client application at www.herbestself.co to work together on finding your gray area, your Both/And space, where your real life and real recovery can finally coexist. Remember: You can both be exactly where you are right now AND be on your way to somewhere beautiful. Connect With Lindsey

In this episode, we go deep into the subtle yet powerful force that governs most of our suffering — the resistance to emotion. It's not the world that causes pain, but our relationship to vibration, to feeling, and ultimately to our own thoughts. Brother, this is a practical lesson in the art of processing emotions by identifying the reactive patterns of the beta condition and learning how to restrict them — not with force, but with awareness, love, and intention.We revisit the “A-line” in the model of alignment and explore how buffering, avoidance, and reaction show up in everyday life. From the impulse to dominate a conversation to the craving for validation, from the passive avoidance of inner work to the compulsive distractions of dopamine-seeking behaviors — it's all part of the same energetic dance. And if we're not conscious of how we move, we suffer.You'll hear examples of how the ego — both in its inflated and inverted forms — manipulates thought to flee from discomfort and chase pleasure. But these reactions never lead to true peace. They reinforce the illusion of separation. In this episode, we break down how to restrict those reactions and instead process what's arising in the body with presence and purpose.We discuss how restriction is not suppression. It's not about pushing away the ego. It's about observing the energy, processing it, and transforming it. This transformation is what allows us to step into the alpha state — where action comes from love, from truth, from the abundance of unity consciousness. The reward is not just emotional clarity, but energetic alignment with the real purpose of your life.This episode also returns us to the foundational tools of the Academy — buffering and models. Why? Because buffering is the low-hanging fruit. It's the easy-to-spot behavior that reveals the deeper resistance. And the model of alignment is how we clean the dirty window, how we see clearly, and how we reprogram our stories so we can live intentionally.By the end of this one, you'll not only understand the power of restriction, but you'll be ready to practice it — in your mind, in your body, in your life. And you'll know that every moment of suffering is an invitation to return to love.Because, brother, the circumstance is always perfect. It's not there to hurt you — it's there to wake you up.
