If you are stuck in your weight loss and can't seem to get rid of belly fat no matter how hard you try, it could be because your body is in survival mode.
This happens - even if you don't think or recognize that this is happening - when:
- You have unresolved trauma from the past that is blocking your progress
- You restrict foods and calories aggressively to follow a diet or intermittent fasting
- You have a lot of demand on your time, energy and capacity
If you wake up at 3am, have racing thoughts and are also not seeing anything work to lose weight, this episode is for you.
Here is what you will get in this conversation with my guest Lori Owens:
* An updated definition for stress that will help you see that this is something you must pay attention to
* Why it's important to take care of yourself, even if you think you are not stressed anymore than anybody else
* 6 very practical ways to regulate your nervous system that are quick, easy and transformative
* The link between trauma and your ability to manage stress
This episode will show you how trauma and chronic stress are putting a cap on how good you can feel in your 40s and how it may explain why nothing is working for your weight loss.
Belly fat is a result of this.
Weight gain is a result of this.
More exercise cannot fix this.
Weight loss medication cannot fix this.
Dieting makes it worse.
Intermittent Fasting makes it worse.
But in this episode, you will get practical tools to shift out of chronic stress and nervous system dysregulation.
