213 - Body Image, Burnout & Learning to Do Less

Strap in - we cover a lot! From accents and ASMR to anxiety, body image, and why it’s so hard to stop doing. Keris talks about how illness forced her to slow down, sit still, and face all the stuff she’d been avoiding, including years of using health, exercise and “busyness” as a distraction. Matt reflects on body image, comparison, and how even with all the knowledge in the world, it’s still easy to get pulled off track. We also get into: – Why most of us are always on (and what that does to the nervous system) – The deeper reasons behind emotional eating and comfort behaviours – Strength vs control (and how to know which you’re chasing) – Why your mind kicks off the second you sit still Keris is also sharing more about the Mindful Body Method, a new space launching in September that’s all about slowing down, reconnecting, and learning to live from a place of calm, not chaos.
