The Power of Finding and Trusting Your Inner Voice with Jeanie Manchester

One of the aspects of food recovery I wished that I had greater guidance around (and had to learn for myself) was discovering how to listen to my body. 

 Even within different food recovery approaches, there are still all of these rules about what to eat to "prove" recovery or what to do to ensure recovery. 

I've seen more confusion over the years about what will or will not lead toward a decrease in food coping mechanisms because there is still this idea that there is a right way and a wrong way to recover. 

When embodiment increases, food behaviors can decrease. When you can hear, understand, and interpret your body's feedback, food impulses don't have to feel so scary to experience anymore because you get what your body is trying to relay. 

It was the practice of yoga that taught me how to get into my body. 

In this week's episode, I chat with Jeanie Manchester, founder of Anjaneya Yoga Shala, Master Yoga and Meditation Instructor, about: 

• The impact of doubt on self perception
• Being guided by your inner voice
• How we are shaped by our life experiences
• Listening to body wisdom
• The connection between lineage and personal identity
• Embracing ourselves
• And so much more!

With Compassion and Empathy,
