Episode 12 is a continuation of my summary of the 10 Intuitive Eating principles as outlined in the book, Intuitive Eating, by Elyse Resch & Evelyn Tribole. Here I review Principle #8: Respect Your Body. 

Living in a diet-obsessed world has normalized speaking negatively about our bodies, disrespecting our bodies, and feeling uncomfortable with giving our bodies praise or accepting a compliment. 

In this episode I talk about how our genes dictate our body type, ways to have gratitude for our bodies, how to stop body comparison and body-checking, how buying clothes that fit and that we feel good in is a form of body respect and language we can use to start feeling better in the one and only body we have in this life.
