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 class
- The 3 C’s: Care, consent and choice as essential factors in being inclusive dietitians, inclusive yoga teachers and inclusive humans
- Doing the work doesn’t always feel good
- What determines whether the yoga we practice will help or hinder healing from disordered eating and body image issues
- Healthsplaining, healthism and the actual determinants of health
- “We don’t sit separately from harm” – the way we show up in the world really matters
- Thin privilege, weight bias and systematic oppression
- Working with clients who want to lose weight, and what people might be actually looking for when they pursue weight loss
- Some of the 100's of evidence based things a non-diet dietitian can do that isn’t giving out a meal plan
- The 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
