166: You Can Start Today with Body Kindness with Rebecca Scritchfield RD/N

Apr 17, 2020

One of my favorite authors, Rebecca Scritchfield, author of Body Kindness is on the podcast today. Body Kindness is such a great representation of pursuing intuitive eating and health and wellness for authentic intentions and a positive, self loving mindset. Body Kindness encompasses so many beliefs we have at Nourishing Women Podcast  and is a critical part of wellness without obsession. You don’t have to love your body to respect it, but let’s not forget that body respect and body kindness are key components of wellness we are often lacking in our culture that obsesses over the thin ideal.

 

Rebecca Scritchfield is an award winning HAES dietitian, certified exercise physiologist and author of the book, Body Kindness®.

 

In this episode we discuss:

  • Rebecca’s origin story to becoming a non-diet dietitian and discovering her philosophy of Body Kindness.
  • What her book, Body Kindness is about and the mission behind her work.
  • The three pillars of body kindness: love, connect and care.
  • The science and psychology behind the concept of spiraling up in the book.
  • Rebecca shares the difference in intention and mindset when you look at nutrition from a non-diet lens vs a diet culture lens.
  • How Rebecca practices wellness without obsession.
