In this episode, Sarah and her guest, Doctor Breese, discuss what shame feels like and sounds like, especially as relates to negative body image. Learn the differences between negative body image and body dysmorphia and how dieting is often a form of disordered eating. However, with mindfulness, we can wake up to our patterns of thinking and behaviors and lean into our emotional experiences. These mindful abilities are the antidote to body and eating challenges that affect more than half of Americans. Learn specific steps you can take to make changes and feel better as soon as the episode concludes.
