Eat Wise for Menopause: Create a Better Food Relationship with Kim Hynes

In this episode with Kim Hynes, a certified nutritional coach and host of The Emotional Eats Podcast, we explore the challenges of emotional eating and body image issues in midlife. Kim discusses the significance of intuitive eating, the impact of cultural and societal influences on women's perceptions of food and body image, and the importance of listening to one's body for a healthier relationship with food. Kim offers insights into how dietary choices affect emotional and physical well-being, addressing topics, such as permission of restriction of certain foods we deem are bad, gut health and its role in all the systems of our body, practicing mindfulness eating, and the myths and benefits around intermittent fasting. In our conversation, Kim and I emphasize empowerment, self-acceptance, and the journey to finding one's unique path to wellness amid the menopause transition.Books mentioned in this episode, The Galveston Diet by Dr. Mary Clair HaverFind Kim Hynes at KimHynes.com and on Instagram @kimhyneshealthLet us know if you're liking the show!Support the showMeet the host, Mary, a certified Menopause Doula and Women’s Coaching Specialist.
