PEACE MEAL Podcast: The Healing Power of Embodiment
The Healing Power of Embodiment
I am excited to share a recent conversation I had with Dr. Jillian Lampert from The Emily Program and Veritas Collaborative all about embodiment.
In this conversation we explore:
The definition of embodiment and reasons why disembodiment can occur
How we can start to be more present in our bodies
What healthcare providers can do to help progress their own embodiment
How yoga can aid the process of embodiment and eating disorder recovery
How body changes during recovery are normal and how to show yourself compassion if your body changes
Why embodiment is not as accessible or safe to those who aren’t white and straight-sized
I left the conversation feeling excited about the continued work of bringing the body to the forefront of eating disorder recovery treatment.
I am reflecting now on how conversations with others informed everything I had to share in this conversation, so for that reason I'd love to shout out my mentors, colleagues and friends whose wisdom I hear coming out of my mouth including
Rachel Lewis-Marlow of the Embodied Recovery Institute
Jamie Earnhardt @shetakesupspace
Dr. Michelle Alvarez @the.honest.therapist
Deep bows of gratitude and appreciation.
Give a listen and I'd love to hear your ideas about the healing power of embodiment!
