Have you ever heard this before? I guarantee you have if you’ve ever taken a flight anywhere in the US or abroad. The airlines are clear: if an emergency occurs, please make sure your own oxygen mask is in place before attempting to help others. Translation: you won’t be much help to others if you […]
The other day a friend posted a video on Facebook. It’s the story of a disabled veteran named Arthur who transforms himself through a yoga practice. I’ve seen this particular video many times before, yet I never fail to click on it when it crosses my screen. In case you haven’t seen it yet, here […]
I know, I know. Sugar is the present-day nutritional nemesis. We love/hate/fear it and KNOW it is bad for us with the same unquestioning disdain we had for eggs, shellfish, and red meat in the 80s and 90s. Our collective approach to “what is known” in nutrition reminds me of how I regarded life in […]
For many of us, everything we currently know about eating we learned from diets: Eat as little as you can manage Listen to “experts” instead of your body Be as hard on yourself as you can tolerate Stop eating what you like and eat what you “should” Cleanse or detox the harmful substances out of […]
When I was a teenager, my favorite part of magazines was the makeovers, you know, the “before” and “after” photos. As someone who naturally tended toward what magazines deemed “before,” I gazed in awe at the dramatic evolution from Plain (unsmiling) Jane to Exotic (ecstatic) Erica. The change was instantaneous, involved just a few simple […]
Last year I wrote a blog post entitled “What is your disordered eating costing you?” In it, I listed just a few of the ways – financially, emotionally, and time-wise – obsessive thinking about food, eating, and our bodies robs us of our real lives. Have you noticed how this has played out in your […]
Yes, I’m just about done beating the S.A.D. drum. You know by now I’m all about anticipating, preparing, and combining fierce gentleness with honest discipline. You know that I believe meditation provides the foundation to having a sane relationship with food, our bodies, and our minds. So, to round out my little campaign, I wanted […]
When I was playing basketball in high school (badly), we often used the full-court press against worthy opponents. In this defensive strategy, rather than waiting for them to get the ball nearer the basket to score, we put stronger man-to-man pressure on them for the length of the court, which allowed us to better anticipate […]
For many years I had the same experience: I woke up some morning in mid-November and felt like my limbs had turned to wood. I looked at the clock and calculated how many hours there were until I could go back to bed. I moved about my day as if an invisible wet woolen blanket […]
A wonderful guest post from my client Terri Barger, as she bravely moves along her unique path to Intuitive Eating: Sometimes the simplest phrase can have the most profound impact. Some friends and I got together for coffee last week, and we were discussing why we avoid certain fitness classes – even though they sound […]
