Embodiment as Resistance to Patriarchy with Chryssa Tsakiris

Subscribe to the Mind, Body, Spirit, FOOD newsletter: https://mindbodyspiritfood.substack.com/This week I talk with Chyrssa Tsakiris, founder of Well Collab Acupuncture and Proof of Life. I had so many chills during this conversation. We go deep, examining how the umbrella of patriarchy, which includes misogyny, racism, agism and capitalism, influences how we nourish ourselves.We talk about this structure of conditioning, and how we can begin to get out of it to reclaim our sovereignty and freedom as humans and as eaters. Chryssa explains how the simple act of being embodied—of being fully in our bodies—can be a powerful tool for resistance. As she says, “If you’re not in your body, patriarchy will be.” And this goes for both women and men.  This conversation is not only going to inspire and empower you, but also provide you with a bit of much needed grace—removing the blame we misguidedly put upon ourselves, and offering you real tools for finding your authentic expression within a culture that often tries to suppress it.Follow Nicki on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nickisizemore/Follow Chyrssa on Instagram: @wellcollabWell Collab Acupuncture: https://wellcollab.com/Proof of Life: https://wellcollab.com/proof-of-lifeGet full access to Mind, Body, Spirit, FOOD at mindbodyspiritfood.substack.com/subscribe This is a public episode.
