Episode Notes

We Go Boldly into bodies and the weight of the world's expectations. How is your heart leads us into a deeper discussion about what it means to be kind and compassionate towards ourselves and others. We talk about our own struggles with our bodies, with what the world puts on us, and what we put on us. Kindness, self-love, self-compassion and practice are keys to dealing with our complex feelings relating to our bodies. 

We also get into the difficult side of diet culture, the way in which it invades our lives, and how it can create unhealthy behaviors and expectations. Culturally and socially we are conditioned to look a certain way, to find beauty in a standardized way, and that is hard to shake. Letting go of social norms around bodies is a challenge but a necessary step in supporting your heart.
