331: PART 2 - Why Your Nervous System Is...

Monica Yates
About this episode

Today, we’re talking about the area of your health that TikTok trends have missed—and that is your NERVOUS SYSTEM & how key it is to weight loss (and whole body health).

Monica’s cutting through the overwhelm and the conflicting advice that’s all over the internet, and she’s giving you REAL and tangible tips to thrive in every area of your health. Don’t wait for a diagnosis, or for something to be wrong for you to take control of your health. Do it today. CHOOSE to thrive. You deserve it. And Monica’s going to break down for you HOW.

(If you haven’t listened to part 1 yet, start there to get the most out of this topic--link below!!)

She’s talking:

🍋 the role your nervous system plays in your health

🍋 why body work and somatic healing are so important

🍋 why expanders are so key for our growth

🍋 how you CAN change your physical health now

🍋 how being so distracted from what’s happening in our lives is harming our health

🍋 the problem with being “skinny fat” is and why it’s harmful for your health

🍋 why the quality of the food matters more than the quantity 

🍋 why losing weight is not just about “eating less”

🍋 the difference between wanting to lose weight from self hate vs self love

🍋 integrating your healing with embodiment & why you can’t override the physical body

🍋 why processing your emotions and detoxing your liver is vital to your physical health

🍋 questions to ask yourself to gauge why you’re not losing the weight even though you’re “doing everything”
