Healing Your Anxious Attachment to Your Body, Food & Health with Alex Long

In this episode of The Anxiety Recovery Podcast, I sit down with registered dietitian Alex Long to explore the deep connection between anxious attachment, body image, and our relationship with food. We unpack how anxious attachment shows up in the way women see their bodies, the patterns of emotional eating and restriction that stem from attachment wounds, and how to start listening to your body’s actual needs instead of following rigid plans out of fear.We also dive into what it means to build a secure attachment with your body, health, and fitness—learning to trust your body again after years of dieting, over-exercising, or feeling disconnected from yourself. Plus, we tackle the big one: detangling your worth from achievement and learning that you don’t have to ‘earn’ love through success.If you've ever felt like your body was something to control rather than trust, or that your worth was tied to how much you achieved, this conversation is for you.🔗 Tune in to reclaim a more compassionate, trusting relationship with your body and self.Connect with Alex on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alex.undefined_/Connect with Valerie on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/healwithval/
