Elyse Resch on Intuitive Eating for Teens and our 'Inner Teen'

Find Your Strong Podcast

Elyse Resch, co-founder of Intuitive Eating and author of the Intuitive Eating Workbook for Teens (amongst many other books and publications*) joins the podcast this week and I couldn't be more excited to bring you this episode.
Elyse is nationally known for her work in helping patients break free from diet culture through the Intuitive Eating process. Her philosophy embraces the goal of reconnecting with one’s internal wisdom about eating and developing body liberation, with the belief that all bodies deserve dignity and respect. *
We talked about:

- What Intuitive Eating IS and is NOT
- How our natural ability to eat intuitively gets disrupted
- Where do we start?
- How we can galvanise folks into action and swim against the tide of diet culture
- What about movement? How does it fit in?
- How social media has impacted our body image and our desire for thinness and invites constant comparison with our peers
- How do we best support our teens in terms of Intuitive Eating?
