In this episode, Jenny Eden Berk’s talking about our bodies; the power of accepting who we are right now; working towards making our bodies healthier; and allowing ourselves to experience pleasure.

Jenny Eden Berk is a Certified Eating Psychology Coach, Body image mentor, International Speaker and Best selling Author of the new release, “The Body Image Blueprint.” She is the founder of Jenny Eden Coaching, a practice devoted to helping women, men and teens heal their relationship with food and their bodies. She specializes in unique binge eating cessation techniques and mindful eating practices. She resides in Boston with her husband and 3 young daughters. In addition to coaching and writing she loves to cook, entertain, travel, as well as practice hot yoga and kettlebell training.

A few things we talked about:

  • Realize that your body is the vessel that makes you able to feel pleasure and good things.
  • Know that our bodies are here for a reason, and that each part has a place in our lives.
  • Think about the one body part you are upset about, and think of the good things that come from that. For example, if your belly isn’t the same that it was before you had kids and it bothers you, remember you are that way because of your ability to have had your children. It’s time to make peace with those parts of your body that make you feel bad.
  • Pleasure is surrounded by conflict, but when you let go of the conflict, and tap into pleasurable sensations, you can experience great things with your body.

Jenny Recommends:

  1. Embodiment – Agree to be in the body you have. Let yourself feel the spectrum of emotions and sensations you’re capable of.
  2. Test all the different sensations your body is capable of feeling. Enjoy the great things you can feel.
