Embracing Intuitive Eating and Body Neutrality in Florida
Welcome to sunny Florida, where the weather is warm, the beaches are beautiful, and the culture is vibrant—a perfect place to live a healthy and fulfilling life. Let’s explore how embracing intuitive eating and body neutrality can make your time here even better.
Enjoying Food without Stress
Florida is known for its abundance of fresh produce, delicious seafood, and diverse culinary scene. (Like seriously, did you see the “Somebody Feed Phil” episode on Orlando? You can find almost any cuisine here!)
In a place like this (or really, anywhere…), strict diets and food rules just don’t fit.
Think about some of your favorite memories, from childhood, from vacations, wherever they were, what do you remember?
……..Did your memory serve you up with details on the calories in a meal you had? Or how you looked in an outfit?
Or do you remember how you felt? Who you were with? Something funny you’ll remember forever?
Humans were created to crave and seek connection, not spend their whole lives micromanaging their weight or caloric intake.
So, whether you’re savoring a Publix sub (bonus points if it’s on sale!!), local seafood, or new foods at Epcot, intuitive eating allows you to tune into your body’s hunger and fullness cues and savor the flavors of Florida without guilt or shame.
Finding Peace in your body
Florida offers endless outdoor adventures, from kayaking in crystal-clear springs to dancing at music festivals. Body neutrality is all about appreciating your body for what it can do, regardless of its size or shape.
Do you love to dance? Go for it!!
Have you always wanted to swim in the Gulf of Mexico? Do it!
Don’t get us wrong, we know this is not always easy in a world obsessed with looks, but a registered dietitian can help you embrace body neutrality and live a fuller life. You deserve freedom from the diet and restriction mindset. You deserve a flourishing life, promise.
Create Lasting Memories with Loved Ones
Exploring Disney, swimming in the springs, watching the sunset in Tampa Bay… these are just a few of the wonderful things you can enjoy here. Practicing intuitive eating and body neutrality allows you to fully immerse yourself in these moments without letting worries about food or body image overshadow the joy and connection you experience with your loved ones.
