EP 054 The Awkward Pose

The Awkward Pose   In my newly adopted yoga practice, one of the moves is the "awkward pose." This is pretty funny to me, because it seems like my whole life has been a series of awkward poses! In this episode I discuss how to negotiate the uncomfortable emotions of feeling awkward in social situations and I also address what you can do when you have those strong feeling of not belonging, not fitting in, not being good enough, pretty enough, smart enough…all of those thoughts of insecurity that have always driven us to overeat. Learn a new way to overcome your inhibitions and at to accept yourself and your beautiful uniqueness.     4:22 Always feeling awkward   5:20 Comparing my insides with others' outsides   6:01 Eating to cover emotions of feeling awkward   7:00 Wanting so desperately to be liked   11:30 Stop judging yourself   12:10 Allow the feelings to just be.   13:23 Don't try to be the funniest the best, the most liked.   14:44 When you try and make an impression, that's the impression you make   15:56 The way you are is perfect.
