Satiated Episode 144: Utilizing Cognitive Dissonance to Enhance your Body Acceptance

Happy Satiated Saturday! 

Have you ever felt like there was an internal war playing out about your body and its appearance? 

You have the thoughts that play out that judge and criticize your body. And then every now and then, you have another set of thoughts when you look in the mirror appreciating and liking your body.

This can create the uncomfortable experience of cognitive dissonance where it feels like one of these body thoughts needs to win out.

In this week’s episode, I discuss utilizing cognitive dissonance in a way that can support you with in enhancing your acceptance of your body. I explore four effective interventions discussed in the 2012 Body Project: A Dissonance-Based Eating-Disorder Prevention Intervention research.

Doing this in community can make this adventure easier. This is why I created the Somatic Eating™ Program to learn, grow, and connect with others on a similar healing path. We start on November 4th and will be together for 11 weeks, learning how to create a safe, secure, and satiating relationship with your food and body. 

There will be one live call each week to learn the tools of Somatic Eating™ and space to ask every question you could have about what's currently going on with food for you to receive support with whatever you're navigating. 

I will be there for you every step of the way through the holidays, a time of the year where so much can arise emotionally. If you want to chat about this program and see if it’s a good fit for you, email me at support@stephaniemara.com and we can chat further! And if you're ready to sign up today, go to somaticeating.com and you can sign up right now.
