Nourishing The Soul By Returning Home To The Body
The journey of reconnecting with the body is an initiation into recovering your intuition, reclaiming your innate enoughness, and remembering your inherent place of belonging in the interconnected web of life.
At the core of this journey lies the frequency of wholeness.
When you practice aligning with wholeness, you step into living an authentically embodied life that is rich with meaning and purpose, free from the sticky entanglements of eating disorders, disordered eating and diet culture.
In a world where we are hungry for wholeness, craving connection, and starved of safe spaces to digest our emotions and rest, my aim is to support you in your process of trusting your inner cues rather than following external rules, choosing receptivity over restriction, and expanding into the fullness of who you are becoming.
But I know this is not an easy journey.
My eating disorder journey began in the shadows of 2007. My whole life revolved around feeding the eating disorder instead of nourishing my soul, body, heart and mind. I was scared to let it go, and yet I so desperately wanted my freedom back.
The question I had to ask myself was:
What would it take for the eating disorder to let go of me?
And so, I ask you the same question.
Even if you don’t identify with the label of having an eating disorder, consider what parts of yourself would need to release, remember, transform or expand for the prickly or heavy food or body behaviours to organically let go of you?
What would you need to add into your life - rather than remove - to create an inner and outer environment that supported your recovery journey?
Walking my own journey of eating disorder recovery and working with coaching clients, I have discovered we all have our unique pathways of deepening into our own embodiment.
The embodied eating disorder recovery is an approach that is creative, additive, and brings the body to the forefront of the conversation. The process of deepening into embodiment is at the heart of recovery.
Integrating Psychedelic Preparation, Integration And Microdosing Guidance With Eating Disorder Recovery
Psychedelics and microdosing act as catalysts for the recovery path, encouraging us hold our heads and hearts high, and illuminate the path towards deep healing, realignment and embodied transformation.
I offer individual coaching for folks who desire psychedelic preparation and/or integration support as well as microdosing guidance. Sessions are informed by an embodied approach, whereby we explore body-first, bottom-up tools to equip the nervous system to feel safe enough to confidently enter a plant medicine journey or microdosing container and successfully integrate the insights that emerge thereafter. Plant medicine allies are resources among many that we can consciously work with to support the healing journey.
The medicine path and the eating disorder recovery road both require inner strength, softness, courage and self-compassion. There are no shortcuts or quick fixes. Psychedelics can show us the path and it’s up to us to walk it. The ceremony of life begins after the psychedelic journey ends whereby we weave the insights into the fabric of everyday life, transforming altered states into altered traits and gradually molding a reality without the eating disorder.
Returning to the wisdom of the body with the support of sacred plant medicines is a vast journey into our ever-expanding awareness, into our ever-evolving embodiment. This is a lifelong path. This is the path of awakening.
Mindful microdosing, intelligent psychedelic preparation and nourishing integration are about:
Expanding embodied awareness.
Learning to embody your whole self.
Reconnecting to and trusting the voice within.
Developing inner clarity and refined dicernment.
Practicing how to navigate the unknown with perspective and resilience.
Shining light on areas of your life that ask for acceptance and forgiveness.
Developing nervous system regulation tools to be with big sensations and emotions.
Creating your reality that is authentically aligned with the core of your being.

What Is Embodied Eating Disorder Recovery?
Embodied eating disorder recovery invites the body to be at the forefront of recovery.
An eating disorder is not a problem that needs to be solved. Rather, it contains rich wisdom and is the body speaking to us in its native language about how safe or unsafe it feels, the level of regulation or dysregulation it’s experiencing, how it takes in information from the world, and what nourishment it needs to thrive.
As we walk this path together, we learn the language of your body and decode its messages. When we understand that the eating disorder is the body’s way of speaking to us, we can listen more deeply to what it is saying and respond to it with body-based resources and interventions.
We cannot think or forcefully will our way out of the habitual food and body behaviours and rituals. An embodied approach is a body-first, bottom-up perspective that views the body as an important ally, not something that should be feared or overcome. Over time, paired with somatic imprints of safety, the body becomes a resource for recovery journey.
When we see the body and its wisdom as part of the recovery process, it is no longer othered, objectified or denied. Its presence is acknowledged, recognised and befriended.
If you feel the call to explore your relationship to nourishment, food and your body with me, get in touch with me below and I will get back to you to set up a time for a discovery call.
Due to the sensitive nature of this work, I am selective about who I work with to ensure this container is a safe, supportive and healthy fit for all.
