Why is it so hard to heal your relationship with your body, even when you know all the right things to think and say? In this mini episode, we explore why positive affirmations and "just love yourself" advice often isn't enough, and how understanding your nervous system can transform your healing journey.

We'll dive into:

• Why disconnection from your body served a purpose
• How your nervous system shapes your body story
• The three states that influence your body image
• What actually creates lasting change in your relationship with your body

If you've ever felt frustrated that you can't "think" your way into feeling better about your body, this video explains why - and more importantly, what you can do instead.

Perfect for anyone struggling with body image, recovering from disordered eating, or wanting to understand the deeper roots of their body relationship.
