Your Body Is Not the Problem | Anthea Todd

In this episode, I'm joined by Anthea Todd, a chiropractor with a Masters in Reproductive Medicine and Women's Health, to talk about the connection between our physical body, emotions, nervous system and the stories we carry. We dive into why symptoms aren't always something to silence, but can be information worth listening to.We talk about why women have been conditioned to look outside themselves for answers, the problem with a one size fits all approach, and why Anthea's philosophy is to use your body, not your bias. Sometimes you need medication. Sometimes you need movement, sleep, nutrition, herbs or simply a little more space.We also get into the connection between emotions and physical symptoms, why we can get stuck in our heads, and what happens when we're constantly pushing, overthinking and avoiding what we're actually feeling. And honestly, the idea of creating more space in your body, your calendar and your life might be something we all need a little more of.🌿 What You'll Learn in This Episode:✅ Why your symptoms aren't necessarily the enemy✅ How emotions and physical symptoms can be connected✅ Why we need to move beyond a one size fits all approach✅ What happens when we live constantly in our heads✅ Why creating space can help your nervous system✅ How to listen to your body without letting bias make the decision📌 Chapters (Jump to your favorite part!):00:00 - Intro & Anthea's Story07:31 - When the System Doesn't Have All the Answers09:29 - Use Your Body, Not Your Bias12:27 - When Emotions Show Up in the Body16:08 - Why We Get Stuck in Our Heads19:34 - The Push Crash Cycle23:44 - Your Body Is the Solution28:30 - Creating Space for Your Nervous System32:05 - Nobody Is Coming to Save You33:39 - Becoming the Lioness
