In this episode:
The book that pivoted both Fiona’s and my own trajectory (If not dieting)Fiona’s yoga teaching as embodied movement VS a fitness classThe 3 C’s: Care, consent and choice as essential factors in being inclusive dietitians, inclusive yoga teachers and inclusive humansDoing the work doesn’t always feel goodWhat determines whether the yoga we practice will help or hinder healing from disordered eating and body image issuesHealthsplaining, healthism and the actual determinants of health“We don’t sit separately from harm” – the way we show up in the world really mattersThin privilege, weight bias and systematic oppressionWorking with clients who want to lose weight, and what people might be actually looking for when they pursue weight lossSome of the 100's of evidence based things a non-diet dietitian can do that isn’t giving out a meal planThe power of the question “I wonder if you’re eating enough?”The pervasive expectation on women and femmes to be “nice” and never angry: how mindfulness is not the same as niceness, and how recognising compassion and kindness in all its forms (including a box of rage!) can help us move away from “nice girl” syndrome
