In this beautifully enlightening episode, we are joined by Geneen Roth, a woman whose life work revolves around transforming our relationship with food, body, and self. Her journey is a powerful testament to the healing potential within us all, as she shares her deep insights and personal experiences.Geneen Roth began her path driven by a lifelong struggle with food and body image. From the age of six, she felt a sense of not being enough, believing herself to be too fat. This self-perception led to a series of extreme diets and eating disorders, including anorexia and addiction to amphetamines. Despite reaching dangerously low weights, the self-loathing persisted. This cycle of gaining and losing weight continued until a pivotal moment when she realized that dieting was not the solution but part of the problem. It was then she chose to stop dieting and started to trust her body, leading to a significant shift in her life and work.

SPIRITUAL TAKEAWAYS
- Trust Your Body: Geneen’s journey teaches us the importance of trusting our bodies and listening to their needs. Instead of imposing strict diets and restrictions, we should tune into our body's natural signals of hunger and fullness, allowing ourselves to eat mindfully and with kindness.
- Examine Your Beliefs: A key element in Geneen's transformation was examining and challenging the deeply rooted beliefs she held about herself. She encourages us to explore the underlying reasons for our eating habits, understanding that our relationship with food often mirrors our self-beliefs and emotional states.
- Practice Kindness and Tenderness: Geneen emphasizes the necessity of treating ourselves with kindness and tenderness, especially when dealing with food. This includes being gentle with ourselves when we slip up and recognizing that self-criticism only perpetuates the cycle of negative behavior.
