Freedom from Diet Culture: The Magic of Intuitive Eating with Kirsten Ackerman

This month on Yoga Magic we're learning all about FREEDOM. Freedom in our bodies, freedom to experience joy, freedom from diet culture. This week's guest Kirsten Ackerman and I dive into freeing ourselves from diet culture by way of intuitive eating. 

Kirsten Ackerman is an Anti-Diet Registered Dietitian and Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor. She is known on her social media channels as The Intuitive RD. Kirsten hosts Intuitive Bites Podcast which provides 30 minute episodes about Intuitive Eating, Health at Every Size and body liberation. She also runs a virtual private practice where she helps clients heal their relationship with food and body through an anti-diet framework.
 

On this episode, Kirsten and Ashley break down what Intuitive Eating is, how societal pressures to be small and eat in a certain way aren't helping anyone. In fact, it's hurting us. Kirsten breaks down the principles of Intuitive Eating and how we can start to work this shift in mindset into our everyday lives and trust our bodies more.
