In today's episode, we tackle the sensitive topic of the word, "Thin," and how it has come to be so hurtful and, even, offensive. So what is it doing in our name front and center!?We want anyone who hears of us to know that the main thing is having an ever deepening relationship with God. In this way, we can relish having a healthy relationship with food and eating. Our focus isn't on being thin. We do not want to in any way conform to the pattern of this world (Romans 12:2).SO...we are REBRANDING. As of this recording, we hadn't landed on a new name, but we have now! It is Revelation Within.We have a passion to equip God's people of any age and size or shape with tools for building intimacy with God and coming to a place of peace with their bodies and food.In this episode we dig deep into the dangers of combining beliefs about Jesus with physical appearance, we debunk the idea that if we are truly godly, we will be thin.Support the showWe are rebranding.

Growing up in California, we were constantly bombarded with cultural pressures to achieve physical perfection and equate our worth with our outward appearance. But what if, instead of chasing this impossible ideal, we focus on our spiritual health and seeking God's love? Join us in this soul-stirring conversation as we share our personal journeys and discuss the dangers of prioritizing physical health over spiritual well-being.Being physically fit doesn't always mean being spiritually healthy, and our society's obsession with appearance has led many of us astray. In this episode, I open up about my own struggle with maintaining physical health while neglecting my walk with God, and the disheartening impact it had on my life. Christina and I contemplate how giving more energy to our relationship with God could have transformed our lives and the impact of past dieting and exercising choices on our character and connection to Him.Finally, we dive into the pursuit of inner fulfillment and how seeking God's kingdom and righteousness can help us find balance and realign our hearts and souls. We offer practical advice on how to identify the true desires of your heart and turn to God for strength, recognizing that our ultimate worth comes from His love, not our outward appearance.

Thin Within is wonderfully compatible with holiday or seasonal trips and travel--actually ANY time you are away from home--for travel or leisure--Thin Within boundaries can go with you without negatively impacting your experience. With all foods being permissible, you can enjoy a "just-right-sized" portion of rare edible finds such as jambalaya in Louisiana, or chicken-fried steak and gravy in Texas, Boston cream pie, bagel with cream cheese and lox, Chicago-style deep-dish pizza, etc. It doesn't take much of these wonderful flavors and textures to satisfy us on our Thin Within journeys.But, best of all, there are strategies we can take with us that remind us that the joy of travel isn't found in making it a roving food fest! It is most of all found in exploring with friends and family members, delighting in one another's company, and thanking God along the way.Join us for a 5 month small-coaching group session!

In today's episode we welcome Joy Overstreet.Joy Imboden Overstreet created the original Thin Within workshops in the San Francisco Bay Area in 1975.  She was one of the very first health educators to ditch diets in favor of mindful eating. She soon realized that being mindful often amplified those shaming internal voices that plague so many weight-worriers.  After a life-changing encounter with a cherry pie-eating friend, she designed a process of self-discovery to root out the tired stories, self-sabotaging beliefs and counter-productive behaviors that had kept her failing at so many diets. She created some simple practices that increased her pleasure in eating, improved her relationship to her body, and have kept her slim ever since. Thousands have benefited from this process over the years. Joy has a Masters degree in Public Health from the University of California, Berkeley. Currently she lives in Portland, OR.—-----------------------------------------------------You can find our guest here: WebsiteFacebookInstagram

Heidi released 100 pounds using the Thin Within principles and a healthy dose of renewing her mind. After settling into a healthy size and experiencing freedom and peace with food, eating, and her body, a health crisis  threatened her life in 2014. Heidi became extremely thin. Twice daily antibiotics (for the rest of her life) might have been at least partially responsible for Heidi's extreme weight gain even as she continued to lead the Thin Within Ministry.  Numerous times she tried to run from this calling, but the Lord wouldn't allow her to escape! In this episode, Christina interviews Heidi about her health, weight, walk with Jesus, convictions, and obedience.  Join us to find out what had to shift in order for Heidi to become aligned with her calling.Come SEE us!Our Thin Within Community: https://thinwithin.teamOur Thin Within Website: https://www.thinwithin.orgOur Thin Within Academy: https://www.thinwithinacademy.com

Find out how Thin Within supports you in breaking free from emotional eating. To be truthful, eating IS an emotional experience. From our earliest childhood--even as infants--we were comforted with the bottle or breast. The difficulty comes when we never learn other ways to comfort, self-soothe or cope with life's trials. Another challenge with our emotional eating is that we have labeled ourselves and tried to hate ourselves into positive change. This just doesn't work. In this episode we talk about how getting rooted in our TRUE identity in Christ can give us steadfast footing. God has given us NEW names! Join us as we explore this pervasive and challenging topic!Find Christina and Heidi at https://thinwithin.team, https://www.thinwithin.org, and https://www.thinwithinacademy.com

We here at Thin Within claim that Thin Within is a "Grace-Based Program." What does that  mean? Join us for episode three as we talk about that very thing.How has dieting been the antithesis to grace for many of us?How have we moralized our eating by looking at the way we operate in terms of "good eating day" or "bad eating day?"How does Thin Within teach that our slips, stumbles, falls and failures can actually provide a backdrop for God's grace to be demonstrated powerfully, not as justification for sin, but to strategize for future victory?How does renewing our minds (Romans 12:2) change everything on my journey to surrender my food, eating, and body image to God?What can you do to be free of self-condemnation?Grace infuses our days when we apply what we share in this episode!

Thin Within is not a diet. It is an alternative to dieting, but so much more. It is a discipleship program more than anything else. What distinguishes Thin Within from Christian diets? In this episode, we also talk about the "What Abouts?" What about my season of life? What about my health concerns? What about my age? What is the main idea of Thin Within? Is it losing weight? Well, listen in and see what you think!
