Happy Satiated Saturday!

Somatic practices have become a buzzword as the new supplement you can take to “calm” yourself down, to shake off a trauma response, and maybe not binge eat.

They can feel alluring. When you’re struggling with food, you just want an answer. There can be panic and desperation at willing to try anything to make sure you won’t binge again. You may find yourself trying to shake, or tap, or dunk your face in ice-cold water. This may feel calming for a few minutes and then you watch yourself walk into the kitchen and grab food.

Gah! So frustrating!

In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat about:

The purpose of somatic practices
Questions to ask yourself to choosing a somatic practice
The difference between fixing and friending
Bodily feedback to look out for when a somatic practice resonates

The Importance of Touch for Healing Pain and Decreasing Cravings with Dr. Njideka Olatunde 44:33

6 days ago44:33

44:33

Happy Satiated Saturday! Many of you may know that touch has been linked to the release of oxytocin. Oxytocin is a hormone related to reproduction, social bonding, stress regulation, and promotes feelings of love, trust, attachment, intimacy, and calm. Ya know what else stimulates the release of oxytocin? Eating . Research studies have found that an increase in oxytocin can decrease the urge to eat. So you can imagine that if you're lacking safe touch in your life and touch has felt invasive, where you stay away from touch, that your body needed to find another way to receive the oxytocin that it desires to feel calm and connected. It found a way to do that through food. This is another example of why food is not just about the food. We can continue to be curious about what food is doing for your body. In this week's episode, I chat with Dr. Njideka Olatunde, author, Master Reflexologist, Pain Relief Educator, and founder of Focus On Healing Wellness Institute about: The power of touch and re-defining what touch is Understanding the connection between stress and pain Refloxology Daily touch practices The importance of play and fun I also sprinkle in the connection between touch and your food behaviors You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here : https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/touch-for-healing-pain-and-decreasing-cravings With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara Fox Keep in touch with Dr. Olatunde here: Website : https://focusonhealing.com/ LinkedIn : www.linkedin.com/in/njidekanolatunde Instagram : www.instagram.com/evolving_butterfly YouTube : www.youtube.com/@changingliveswithtouchology Podcast : www.touchologywellnessexperience.com Support the show Keep in touch with Stephanie Mara: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafox Website: https://www.stephaniemara.com/ https://www.somaticeating.com/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafox Contact: support@stephaniemara.com Support the show: Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/support My favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeating Receive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here : https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARA Use my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...…

Sail Through Food Cravings with Self-Hypnosis Resources with Caroline McNally 51:28

13 days ago51:28

51:28

Happy Satiated Saturday! It can be confusing what path to choose for your food recovery when there are many different paths you can walk. When exploring all the various avenues, you can focus on your experience of choice. There is no "right" way to decrease your food coping mechanisms. It gets to be unique to you, your body, and what supports you in feeling the way you want to feel in your life. Your recovery resources are your choice (something that the experience of trauma can feel like it took away from you). When trying out any somatic, nervous system, trauma, parts practices, you can observe how you feel before, during, and after to discover which practices resonate with you. You will receive this bodily feedback by tracking your capacity to flow through dysregulation, big emotions and sensations, and what helps you to return to yourself again and again. In this week's episode, I chat with Caroline McNally, Hypnotherapist & Longevity Coach, about: Hypnotherapy resources you can use on yourself to navigate food urges and impulses Utilizing visualization for navigating your relationship with food The importance of laughter on this healing journey Reminding yourself that you have a choice You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here : https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/food-cravings-with-self-hypnosis-resources 6 more days to sign up for the Somatic Eating® Program!

Why You're Afraid of Feeling Hungry 8:47

20 days ago8:47

8:47

Happy Satiated Saturday! When you're feeling threatened in your body, hunger and fullness cues can feel wonky and also frightening. Hunger can come out of nowhere and remind you how little control you may feel in your life right now. The felt sense of hunger can be similar to past experiences you've had that left you feeling unsafe. The empty feeling may remind you of being abandoned as a child and the hurt and pain of not feeling held the way you needed to be. If you ignore hunger, you can also ignore the pain that hunger reminds you of. In this week's episode, I chat about: The somatic and cognitive influences on hunger How the felt sense of hunger gets paired with danger Somatic practices to update your body's hunger story You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here : https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/why-youre-afraid-of-feeling-hungry If you're looking for support to update your body's story of hunger, come join the Somatic Eating® Program.

How Society Shapes Our Health Beliefs and Dieting Behaviors with Abbie Attwood 47:56

27 days ago47:56

47:56

Happy Satiated Saturday! What if diet culture wasn't actually the "problem"? Focusing on diet culture can become a distraction. It keeps the conversation circling around the same point—being controlled around our food choices is the problem, and we need to regain our experience of choice with food. Yet, when all of our attention stays on food, we miss out on exploring the deeper layers of who we are, beyond what we eat. Staying locked in a battle with diet culture can distract us from stepping into our power. In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with my dear friend and colleague, Abbie Attwood, Anti-diet Nutritionist, about: Understanding health and nutrition messaging The complexity of trusting ourselves and science Challenging the notion of control over health Distractions from systemic issues in health The impact of socioeconomic factors on food choices Enhancing your critical thinking skills in nutrition and media You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here : https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/society-shapes-dieting-behaviors Doors to the Somatic Eating® Program are officially open!!! 🎉 🎉 🎉 Go to somaticeating.com to join today.

Discover Your Inner Wisdom and Body Intuition On A Food Recovery Journey with Katie Beecher 45:25

5 weeks ago45:25

45:25

Happy Satiated Saturday! Intuition has been fascinating for me. I first started getting into the mind-body connection through practicing and learning about yoga and yoga philosophy. In yoga classes, I would often hear teachers talking about trusting your intuition. To be guided by your intuition. But, what I rarely heard was descriptions of how do you know something is intuition. Is what you're feeling intuition or fear? The more I learned about somatic work, the more I started to question the experience of intuition and where it comes from. When I finally discovered that intuitive processes are correlated with the activation of a part of the prefrontal cortex, called the orbitofrontal cortex, and that this part of your brain is diminished in activity after experience childhood trauma, I began to piece together that intuition is not something that everyone may easily be able to tap into based on their history. In this week's episode, I chat with Katie Beecher, Licensed Professional Counselor and Medical and Emotional Intuitive, about: The difference between intuition and fear Practices to strengthen your intuition The healing power of movement and art Embracing your sensitivities Important factors to include in your food recovery journey You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here : https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/discover-your-inner-wisdom With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara Fox Keep in touch with Katie: Website : https://katiebeecher.com/ Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/katiebeecher_medical_intuitive/ Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/beechermedicalintuitive Support the show Keep in touch with Stephanie Mara: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafox Website: https://www.stephaniemara.com/ https://www.somaticeating.com/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafox Contact: support@stephaniemara.com Support the show: Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/support My favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeating Receive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here : https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARA Use my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...…

Update Your Response to Stress, Stop the Symptom Reaction Cycle with Ali Damron 46:49

Happy Satiated Saturday! How do you currently view symptoms or impulses in your body? Are they something to be fixed? Are they wrong or bad? Are you afraid of them when they increase? If you said yes to these questions, you might notice how does it feel in your body to view the body's symptoms and impulses as wrong, bad, fearful, and need of fixing? Something I've been teaching for a while is that your food coping mechanisms are not a problem. Often, what needs to be updated is how you respond to your body when it is sending you communication through a symptom or urge. What if you started to invite that reaction to the table and make it alright that this is what you're experiencing? In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Ali Damron, Hormone Expert, Licensed Acupuncturist, and Certified Personal Trainer, about: Understanding neuroplastic pain The complexity of emotions in healing Updating your relationship to stress Updating your body's story Understanding the role of fear in physical symptoms Embracing discomfort Anxiety as a messenger of information The importance of naming your feelings and emotional check-ins You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here .

Happy Satiated Saturday! While trauma-based food coping mechanisms, like binge eating, can feel dramatic, healing can sometimes (not always) be incredibly boring. Decreasing food patterns can look like simple acts of body care, like: Eating consistent, balanced meals Moving your body in nourishing ways Taking time to breathe and enjoy a moment Fostering a validating inner dialogue Finding ways to laugh and have fun These are the non-sexy, simple, not marketable ways of what it can look like to take care of your body and reconnect with yourself. In this week's episode, I chat with Ashley Fillmore, Coach, Metabolism Expert, and the founder of Metabolic Fix™, about: Shifting from reactive actions for your health to preventative The role of stress, mindset, and burnout in your health and food behaviors Finding the right practitioner to work with for you and how to state your needs with them Identifying progress beyond the scale You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here : https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/lasting-body-wellness The doors to the Somatic Eating® Program open on Tuesday, April 29th!

Understanding Your Gut and Its Role In Your Mood and Cravings with Martha Carlin 52:10

8 weeks ago52:10

52:10

Happy Satiated Saturday! I have one published article in a journal titled, The Enteric Nervous System and Body Psychotherapy: Cultivating a Relationship with the Gut Brain . I have a fascination and curiosity about the gut. The gut contains about 100 trillion bacteria that contribute to your mood, mental health, immune system, cravings, and nervous system. Some studies have found that there are some missing microbes in the guts of people who are struggling with binge eating, which provides another example of how binge eating is not your fault but a response to what is happening inside your body. About 95% of serotonin is made in your gut, making it a part of your experience of joy and happiness. You can imagine that if your gut bacteria are out of balance, you may feel inexplicably sad, leading you to reach for food to feel better. In this week's episode, I chat with Martha Carlin, microbiome researcher, founder of The BioCollective, and speaker about: The importance of understanding the microbiome The connection between Parkinson's and gut health The impact of food and stress on the gut and mental health Where gut research may be heading with probiotics, fecal transplants, and nutrition You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here : https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/understanding-your-gut-and-its-role-in-your-mood-and-cravings With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara Fox Keep in touch with Martha: Website : https://www.thebiocollective.com/ LinkedIn : https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-biocollective/ BiotiQuest : https://biotiquest.com/products/sugar-shift Support the show Keep in touch with Stephanie Mara: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafox Website: https://www.stephaniemara.com/ https://www.somaticeating.com/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafox Contact: support@stephaniemara.com Support the show: Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/support My favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeating Receive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here : https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARA Use my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...…

An Ayurvedic Perspective on Food as Medicine with Dr. Shivani Gupta 51:18

10 weeks ago51:18

51:18

Happy Satiated Saturday! When I started to learn about the mind-body connection through yoga, I dove deep into all things yoga. I became a bit of a yoga fanatic and that led me to learn about Ayurveda, which is yoga's sister science. Ayurveda is a whole-body system of medicine. Rather than seeing symptoms as problems to be fixed, Ayurveda approaches symptoms as imbalances that can be brought into balance with foods, movements, and self-care routines. Ayurveda gave me a new lens to see my body through. I got to experience the exquisite wisdom in my body. I learned that food can be an ally helping to bring me into balance rather than what diet culture taught me was that food was something to be controlled and to eat as little of it as possible. In this week's episode, I chat with Dr. Shivani Gupta, Ayurvedic practitioner and inflammation expert, about: What Ayurveda is The 3 doshas and how to determine which one you might be What foods and actions support your unique dosha The importance of eating seasonally What we can learn from an Ayurvedic approach to food and our bodies You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here : https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/an-ayurvedic-perspective-on-food-as-medicine Hope you all enjoy this week's episode!

Reconnecting with Your Body and the Role of Embodiment in Eating Recovery with Ann Saffi Biasetti 51:59

11 weeks ago51:59

51:59

Happy Satiated Saturday! Have you ever noticed that the strongest memories are the ones where you felt the most presence and embodiment? I will never forget my first yoga class because when I was shaking while holding a plank, I couldn't be anywhere else but in my body. At the beginning of your eating recovery, you may feel disconnected and dissociated. Your body has felt like an unsafe place to inhabit. Food has served as a wise strategy to create distance from your body or a micro-moment of feeling alive. Creating safety with food is less about food and more about expanding your capacity to be in your body while you eat, feel, and live. Embodiment is often the missing piece in healing your food coping mechanisms. In this week's episode, I chat with Ann Saffi Biasetti, Transpersonal Psychologist and Eating Disorder Expert, about: What embodiment is The importance of creating safe and comfortable embodying experiences The process of embodiment Creating a language for describing body sensations and emotions How embodiment can impact food behaviors What the ongoing journey of embodiment looks like You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here : https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/embodiment-in-eating-recovery The next Somatic Eating® Program starts on May 22nd.

The Power of Proprioceptive Practices to Navigate Binge Urges with Dr. Satya Sardonicus 52:02

12 weeks ago52:02

52:02

Happy Satiated Saturday! Proprioception is your body's ability to sense movement and know where you are in space. When you've experienced past trauma, you dissociate from your body out of protection. This can decrease your proprioceptive awareness where food comes in to experience movement, embodiment, and have a moment of presence to feel where you are right here and now. In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Dr. Satya Sardonicus, a leading expert in fascia and nervous system healing and the creator of NeuroFascial Flow, about: What is proprioception and fascia How low proprioception and rigidity in your fascial system can lead to increased stress Proprioceptive and fascial exercises you can engage in that can help you to navigate food urges What somatic and nervous system practices could be making things worse and dysregulating you You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here : https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/the-power-of-proprioceptive-practices Hope you enjoy this episode and see you all next week!

Understanding and Healing from Long Covid and Chronic Illness with Lily Spechler 1:03:37

Happy Satiated Saturday! In April of 2022, I went to Disney World with my family and came back with covid. It was, unfortunately, the Delta strain that left me with long covid. I had to use an oxygen concentrator while I slept for about a year while my lungs healed through nebulized steroids and inhalers. I also had the lovely long covid symptom of losing my ability to swallow where I was on an all-liquid way of eating for almost two years. It's been quite a journey! While there are a few long covid symptoms I still navigate, I am now able to chew and swallow foods again, can sleep soundly, and generally feel much more grounded and stable in my body. Along the way, I learned so much about how the body works and that food behaviors are multi-faceted and influenced by many different internal factors. In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Lily Spechler, Long Covid Registered Dietician, about: Our own long covid healing journeys What can happen in the body after getting long covid Navigating histamine, mcas, dysautonomia issues How food and supplements can play a role in increasing or decreasing bodily symptoms The non-food reasons you may overeat or gain or lose weight And a lot more! Even if you don't have long covid there are so many gems in this episode to take away.

Happy Satiated Saturday! Your body loves to be in movement. Yet, movement or exercise can also be a way to create distance between you and how you feel. There is a different felt sense when you move to express a fight or flight response or dissociate from the feeling of threat in your body. You can ask yourself before you move: Am I using movement as a way to push myself further away from me? Am I using movement in a way that connects me back to myself? In this week's episode, I chat with DK Ciccone, author and weight-neutral certified pilates instructor and pain specialist, about: Befriending movement Redefining movement goals Challenging fitness culture Understanding chronic pain and the role of movement in pain management Listening to your body's wisdom Healing through movement You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here : https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/rediscover-the-joy-of-moving In the Somatic Eating® Program, you'll learn how to gauge what and how much physical movement would work best for you.

Transform The Way You Experience Bad Body Image Moments with Deb Schachter 55:49

16 weeks ago55:49

Happy Satiated Saturday! I take a different approach to body image healing. I apply the same explorations I do with food from a somatic perspective to body image. I started to wonder why is it that you can look in the mirror and love what you see one day and then later that day or the next day look in the mirror and feel like everything needs to change. Your body did not change within 24 hours. The answer is your nervous system. You will perceive your body differently based on your nervous system state. Often body image worries increase when you don't feel safe. In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Deb Schachter, author and Boston’s leading clinicians in body image and eating disorder recovery, about: Navigating bad body image moments The role of relationships in body image What your body is trying to tell you through body image concerns An internal family systems perspective on body image The importance of connection and community on this healing path You can also read the transcript to this week’s episode here : https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/bad-body-image-moments With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara Fox Keep in touch with Deb: Website : https://debschachterlicsw.com/ https://bodyimageinsideout.com/ Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/bodyimageinsideout/ Book-Body Image Inside Out : https://amzn.to/4hQdLNa Support the show Keep in touch with Stephanie Mara: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafox Website: https://www.stephaniemara.com/ https://www.somaticeating.com/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafox Contact: support@stephaniemara.com Support the show: Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/support My favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeating Receive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here : https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARA Use my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...…
