131: Loving Your Body! Working With It, Not Against It

In this episode, Professor AG reflects on a recent season of emotional healing and how it shifted the way she thinks about weight, stress, and the body. She talks through the idea that our bodies respond to difficult seasons by trying to protect and stabilize us, and that changes in weight or cravings can sometimes reflect the nervous system searching for safety. Rather than approaching the body with criticism or control, she shares the power of curiosity, self-compassion, and gentle structure. She encourages us to work with our bodies, listen to their signals, honor different seasons of life, and build a more supportive relationship with ourselves along the way.Timestamps:00:00 Introduction to AG University and Somatic Healing05:38 The Importance of Emotional Regulation11:30 Navigating Body Image and Self-Image18:14 Understanding Weight Fluctuations and Body Connection24:32 The Blessing of Hashimoto's Diagnosis29:45 Understanding Weight Loss and Energy Dynamics35:38 Stewardship of the Body: A Spiritual Perspective42:47 The Journey of Self-Acceptance and HealingKeywords: somatic work, nervous system, body acceptance, emotional regulation, weight fluctuation, self-love, autoimmune, intuitive eating, energy healingWhat is AGU? After launching an energy work practice rooted in the Akashic Records, AG uncovered so much information that she needs the world to hear!
