Is Intuitive Eating a Good Idea in Recovery?

In this episode, Han and Emily discuss Intuitive Eating. The key takeaways are: Allowing intuition to guide us involves letting out body perform unconsciously. Therefore, there is a paradox in consciously deciding to begin to doing Intuitive Eating. Intuition is distorted by fear. Following your hunger and fullness is not necessarily safe to do in recovery, when these cues are very likely warped and compromised. Intuitive eating is not just the 'hunger and fullness diet'. It is about supporting your body, oftentimes proactively. Focus on clearing fear with intentionality. Mechanical processes are often required in any process that also involves fearWe hope you found value in this episode - as always, we really enjoyed speaking this topic through.
