Energy, Fatigue, Food and Beyond

Energy, Fatigue, Food and Beyond

Energy is one of the best indicators of health, but so many of us are living exhausted. It affects our life physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually and otherwise. In the episode, I help you reframe this conversation about energy and get you to think differently about energy spent and gained, not just with food and movement, but in your life. What would you do if you had more energy?

How much should I be eating?

How much should I be eating?

Knowing how much to eat can be hard when trying to just “listen to the body,” especially if we don’t really know how to trust in it’s hunger/fullness cues.

✨ In this episode I breakdown a 3-part phrase, AIM, to help you connect with food and your body at meal times to discover (for yourself) how much to eat instead of relying on rigid rules for amounts so that you can rely on yourself to know how much to eat - for life.

My Blood Sugar Crisis

My Blood Sugar Crisis

In the past, I would have FREAKED out, but this time, I was able to *stay calm* and sane (without going zero to 100) upon seeing my blood sugar be high on a recent blood test. In the episode I describe my situation, I explain how blood sugar works a bit, and lastly, I share how intuitive eating is so possible (and almost more important!) when suffering chronic illnesses.

Drop the “health nut” facade and embody wellness more authentically

Drop the “health nut” facade and embody wellness more authentically

Do you feel your identity is in some way tied to being “the healthy one” or living a “healthy lifestyle?”. In a world of health, fitness and nutrition influencers, it can be hard to embody wellness rather than simply pretend to always do the “healthy” thing instead. In this episode, I share with you how to embrace the raw realities of living a life where wellness isn’t just practiced and/or played pretend,, but it’s instead, embodied.

The Weight Loss Hurdle, with Cherie Miller

The Weight Loss Hurdle, with Cherie Miller

Cherie @foodfreedomtherapist and I have a robust conversion about weight, weight loss, intuitive eating, and our truest deepest desires in life. We talk about our perceptions about weight, the reality of weight, relevant research on the topic, and how we must confront our weight belief/mindset before beginning our intuitive eating journey. In the episode we more specifically discuss:

✨ How to trust ourselves, our bodies, and food to nourish us, and how diet culture fosters distrust around food, our body cues and ourselves.

✨ What are the deeper meanings of weight gain and weight loss? What meanings have we attached to weight and weight change?

✨Cherie shares some research about weight and how overweight individuals might be better able to withstand chronic conditions and cancer better than “normal” and “underweight” individuals. (We reference Christy Harrison of Food Psych).

From Chaos to Calm with Food and Body

If stress about food and discomfort in how you feel about your body cause you any unhappiness in life this is an episode to listen to.

✨ What it’s like to experience chaos in your food and body relationships and how that impacts your life in ways beyond health.

✨ Why I developed this program and how it aims to stop generational body hatred and promote life-long nourishment.

The Workshop: Conscious Cooking

The Workshop: Conscious Cooking

Cooking enhances our experience with food and our ability to uniquely achieve satisfaction, but it overwhelms us. What to cook, how to cook better, how to prep meals that aren’t boring, and how to make the time to do any of that prevent us from getting in the kitchen. In this episode I discuss:

✨ Barriers to home cooking, why they’re valid, and how to overcome them.

✨ The importance of solidifying a mealtime/cooking rhythm

✨ How satisfaction brings nutrition, not the other way around.

✨ And I share two learnings from our spontaneous vacation this weekend…

AND MORE.

A great episode to catch. I believe everyone loves cooking - they just don’t know it yet! DM me on IG to get in touch with Zoli if you’re looking to start a podcast or to share with me any adventures you’re going on (or have gone on) this summer.

Mind-Blowing Truths About The Mind Body Connection, with Casey Berglund

Mind-Blowing Truths About The Mind Body Connection, with Casey Berglund

The mind-body connection is (IMO) the biggest component of total wellness no one’s talking about, other than Casey Berglund. Casey believes you can strengthen your mind-body connection by recognizing the disconnected states (feeling anxious, frustrated and overanalyzing) and by coming back into our bodies to feel more grounded and whole. Casey will absolutely blow your mind in this episode, discussing...

✨ How diet culture keeps us disembodied in “all in our heads” when it comes to food and healing (and how 95% of the time, the anxiety isn’t about food).

✨How mind-body integration offers a deep sense of confidence in oneself beyond what changing one’s body size can provide.

✨ How to connect with discomfort in the body (the fear, anxiety, stress) in a way that’s serving, rather than avoiding it using food or other coping mechanisms.

Learn more about Casey @worthyandwell on instagram or visit her website at www.worthyandwell.com. And if you’re curious to learn more about The Workshop Casey is part of LAUNCHING JUNE 20! DM me on instagram to get a bonus 1:1 when you sign up before that date!

The Workshop: Mind Body Harmony

The Workshop: Mind Body Harmony

You’ve heard talk of a mind-body connection, but why is this important? Why do we talk about it? In this episode we dive into pillar 2 of “The Workshop” - a 6 month program I’m launching June 20 - and we discuss…

✨ The differences between embodied and disembodied experiences and feelings and their importance.

✨ How and why the nervous system engages (sometimes in ways we wish it didn’t) to protect us during triggering or stressful situations.

✨ How we can befriend our nervous systems so we can work WITH our bodies, rather than against it, by strengthening our mind-body connection and beyond.

Thanks for listening! Please send me a DM @aliciabrown_ab on IG if you’re interested in The Workshop (only 15 spots available) and if you have any thoughts about the episode, feel free to send them there as well. I look forward to seeing you on Thursday’s episode!

The Workshop: How “food and body stuff” (anxieties) Impact Our Life

You’ll leave this episode feeling empowered to tackle your “food and body stuff”. I define what I mean by this “stuff” in the episode and…

  3. I share some personal experiences of when I had a poor relationship with food and how I turned it around
  4. I also share more about the workshop I’m launching in June (wahoo!!).

Three food/body insights from three years married

Three food/body insights from three years married

Instead of shedding our food and body anxieties once we get into the “right” relationship, what often happens is that they change and amplify. Of course allowing another person into our life, in any capacity, brings up vulnerabilities within us! And so, in the episode we discuss...

✨ Why it’s important to clearly communicate your needs often (for food, movement, together/alone time, and beyond).

✨ How not to compare your needs/behaviours with your spouses actions.

✨ How to love your partner by enabling them to start/continue healing their relationships with food/body.

And beyond!

Thanks so much for tuning into this episode. It’s from the heart after three years of marriage to my husband Tyler. Yes, food and body stuff comes u still and yes it’s possible to deal with it in a supportive way more, everyday.

Unhappiness, Dragons, and “Food and Body Stuff”

Unhappiness, Dragons, and “Food and Body Stuff”

The gateway to happiness is sifting through the unhappiness - the suffering, fear, anxieties, etc. In this episode, we talk about how unhappiness builds when it’s not addressed. How our negative thoughts and feelings (like those about food and body stuff) grow and grow if they’re constantly being shoved down and not let out. Talk about your pain, articulate it thoughtfully, be honest about it, and aim to be a better human being by doing this work of sifting.

The Other Side of Perfect: Discovering the Mind-Body Connection, with Debbie Emick

The Other Side of Perfect: Discovering the Mind-Body Connection, with Debbie Emick

Debbie Emick found her people-pleasing and perfectionist tendencies impacting her health and ability to receive the care she needed, immensely. Disconnected from (and distrusting of) her body, Debbie fought to improve her health in many conventional ways, to no avail, and she tried to do it perfect. Does this sound relatable? 

In the episode we discuss…

✨ Debbie’s trial and error navigating the more superficial aspects of healing, following “quick fix” advice from medical experts, pharmaceutical interventions, etc.

✨ Her discovering a more holistic approach toward healing (nutrition, exercise, etc.) led to an internal search for mental/emotional health, ultimately creating less physical illness and pain.

✨ Learning to move beyond the coping mechanisms and personality traits attached to for survival that no longer served one or one's health

✨ Living a less fearful life from a place of power that allows one to create the life they desire today.

Debbie has so much value to share that she wrote a book, called, The Other Side of Perfect: Discovering the Mind Body Connection to Healing Chronic Illness. She’s also co-author of a blog, www.gobucketyourself.com, and co-host of the show, One Life, Live It!

The Frantic, Internal Debate Of The "Should's"

The Frantic, Internal Debate Of The "Should's"

The constant chatter of “should’s” in our minds remind us it's better for us to do something we’re not currently not doing. They say we “should” drink more water, eat more vegetables, do X health-related thing, etc. The “should’s,” inevitably, make us feel like a failure when it comes to our health because we simply can't keep up with all their advice, rules and expectations. In the episode I discuss:

✨ Where the “should’s” are derived from

✨ A poem from Deborah Anne Quibell’s book, “Soul Bird: Poems for Flying” to help us invite the “should’s” in, cautiously.

✨ How to let your body lead despite the “should’s”, to continue nurturing your body in your own, unique way.

A really enjoyable and impactful episode to tune into. How will you manage your internal dialogue of should’s?

Think About How (More Than What) You Eat

Think About How (More Than What) You Eat

What foods do we need to eat to lose weight, improve metabolism, clear skin, or improve digestion? In the show, I talk about why this approach to nutrition and health isn’t as beneficial as talking about *how* we eat instead, addressing our thoughts/feelings/attitudes/beliefs about (and behaviors with) food. Talking about how we eat transforms what we eat, and we find ourselves healthier in the process.

Why “Nutrition Management” Strategies Backfire

Why “Nutrition Management” Strategies Backfire

We’re taught you can manage your weight and your health by using scales and phone apps while having someone hold you accountable to “staying on track.” However, in this episode, I discuss why you truly DON’T need to manage your nutrition and be constantly “held accountable” when eating intuitively, instead. It’s a much more free and satisfying way to eat and live! Learn how in the episode.

✨ How organizing our home, our closets and our kitchen, helps build confidence in our life.

✨ Why we clutter our spaces, despite being, characteristically, pretty organized people in general.

✨ How to plan to start clearing and organizing your home, start to finish, starting with the kitchen.

And more!

Make (and keep) small, daily promises to yourself to build body trust

Make (and keep) small, daily promises to yourself to build body trust

Does thinking about goal-setting make you cringe? Oftentimes we’re burned by goal setting, especially regarding health-related goals. We set lofty goals because we’re ambitious! Determined! And hold a big vision for ourselves. However, that doesn’t work and leaves us feeling unaccomplished.

In this episode I talk about ditching goals and, rather, making (and keeping) daily promises to yourself to build trust, self-esteem, and confidence with food and with your body and beyond.

Follow your “true” intuition with food and Ayurveda, with Victor Briere, AD

Follow your “true” intuition with food and Ayurveda, with Victor Briere, AD

Ayurvedic Doctor, Victor Briere, co-founder of the International Institute of Ayurveda, joins me at the Kitchen Table for a deep and detailed discussion about parallels that exist among intuitive eating and ayurvedic’s philosophy and practices. In the episode we discuss:

✨ Beginning to uncover root causes of our health impairments, rather than constantly rely on diet culture or healthcare services to quickly treat symptoms or solve our immediate desires.

✨ How our intuition can be masked by our feelings and difficult to identify, especially when it comes to making food choices.

✨ How aligning the mind, body, and soul, and being able to listen to and honor each, leads to an awakening that brings clarity to each.

AND MORE.

Pain relief by optimizing alignment with Dr. Jill Zimmerman

Dr. Jill Zimmerman attributes much of the pain we experience in the body to gradual (and natural) shifting out of optimal alignment, not weight. In this info-packed episode Dr. Jill explains:

✨ How “‘getting healthy’ by hitting the treadmill at the gym” can increase our risk of injury by putting repetitive pressure and strain on misaligned joints.
✨ How our bodies get out of alignment and how to identify asymmetries to relieve pain.
✨ Why important to address pain objectfully and directly, rather than wait for weight loss to happen (which there aren’t any sustained/proven weight loss programs for anyway).

AND MORE!

Follow Jill on Instagram @jillzimmermanpt (she has the best “how to” videos!) and send a DM to ask about scheduling an initial consult.
