Ep. 134 | Why Diet Culture Stole Your Patience - And How to Get It Back

from The Daily Ascent · host Molly Carmel

In today's episode, I'm talking about something that came up in my SOS group this week that I think doesn't get named nearly enough - one of the greatest abuses of diet culture is what it has done to our capacity for patience. I lived inside that urgency for years.  Sonya Renee Taylor writes in The Body Is Not an Apology that unlearning is challenging - do not expect neat, tidy resolutions, and we can only get closer if we are willing to be uncomfortable.  Today's episode is about taking your patience back.  Question to carry into your day: Where in your healing have you been demanding fast results from a process that actually needs time - and what would it feel like to give yourself permission to go slowly?  If the impatience shows up most loudly around your body and food, let's talk.
