Mindful Shape
If you’ve been dieting and exercising your whole life and have yet to reach your weight-loss goal and keep it off, this podcast is for you! Most programs solve for the effect (the excess weight) but not the overeating problem - the reasons why you put on the extra weight in the first place. In each episode you’ll learn how to master your thinking so you can banish self-sabotage, feel at peace with food and finally experience life in the body you secretly know is your natural shape. Let’s do it together. Find Free PDF Handouts at mindfulshape.com/resources

Take a deep breath in through your nose... and let it go.
Allow your eyes to gently close, and begin to shift your focus inward.
With each breath, you invite a sense of calm and comfort into your body.
Inhale... and exhale... letting go just a little more each time.
With every breath, feel yourself becoming more and more relaxed.
Let go of tension in your forehead...
in your jaw...
in your shoulders...
and in your belly.
Let your belly soften—there is nothing to hold in, nothing to control.
Your body is safe.
You are safe.
Now, imagine yourself surrounded by a soft, warm, golden light.
This light represents your inner wisdom—your body's natural intelligence.
It knows how to heal.
It knows how to release.
And it knows what balance looks and feels like for you.
You are not forcing your body to change.
You are inviting it—gently and lovingly—to release what it no longer needs.
Now bring your attention to your body's fat stores...
Not with judgment or frustration,
But with deep compassion.
Your body may have held onto fat as protection...
As a buffer...
Or in response to stress, scarcity, or survival signals.
And now...
You are letting it know:
"Thank you. You did your job. I am safe now."
And because you are safe,
Because you are supported,
Your body no longer needs to hold onto this excess.
Imagine your body now activating its natural ability to burn fat efficiently.
See your metabolism gently waking up, flexing, recalibrating to its optimal rhythm.
Feel your body working efficiently.
Your hormones aligning in harmony.
Your energy rising.
Visualize the fat gently melting away,
dissolving into particles of white light,
Moving, swirling
Your body enthusiastically and effortlessly transmutes this light into fuel
As energy
This energy has been waiting to be released.
Feel how light your body becomes.
Feel how clear your mind is.
You no longer carry what no longer serves you.
Now say to yourself silently—or out loud:
"I trust my body."
"I allow my body to release what it no longer needs."
"I nourish myself with tenderness, movement, and presence."
"I am accessing the version of me who is light, strong, and free."
Let these words settle into your subconscious, like seeds being planted in fertile soil.
You are not chasing weight loss.
You are allowing transformation.
And now, as you begin to return to full awareness,
Take a deep breath in through your nose...
And as you exhale, feel a sense of clarity and calm.
You are changing.
You are ready.
You are already on your way.
When it feels right, gently wiggle your fingers and toes...
Open your eyes...
And carry this feeling of alignment and ease with you.
