Permission and Surrender
from Rewired · host Rewired
Conditions, permission and surrenderIn this episode of Rewired, we explore one of the most important parts of recovery: giving yourself permission. From food and movement to the idea of what recovery “should” look like, we reflect on what it means to truly surrender, and why surrendering – to others, to weight restoration and to unconditional eating – is essential. We explore the discomfort of letting go, and the freedom that comes from allowing your body and mind to find their own way – even when others don’t understand. We also unpack the idea of invalidity and feeling like a “fraud” (and why that’s just not the case!). Topics covered: · Surrendering to the process: letting your body decide· Minimising ED opportunities and outsourcing support · Common triggers and conditions around food · Once it’s in, it’s in: the importance of consistency · Time-hopping and not acting on the “moment” · Allowing yourself to eat all foods· Meal plans, cravings, and navigating structure · Loosening the grip on movement and hidden rules · Permission around your weight· Why surrender isn’t failure Connect with us: MegInstagram: @megsy_recovery YouTube: Megsy Recovery TikTok: megsy recovery SafiaInstagram: @safia_edrecoverycoach Email: [email protected] Beyond Body Coaching: www.beyondbodyimage.com/ Em (copywriter & editor)Instagram: @em_schone [DISCLAIMER] Please keep in mind we’re not medical professionals, and the podcast content reflects our own experiences and opinions, as well as that of our guests, so it shouldn’t be taken as medical advice.
