Healing As An Initiation
Listen now
Description
We talked last time about balancing our blood sugar, what an important role it plays in the nourishment of our bodies, and the impact it has on how we manage our stress. Glucose is key to the body’s function, and we need carbohydrates for our cells to function appropriately to allow us to go deeper in our journey to healing. Nourishment is an initiation. It is just the beginning of the healing that our bodies need to experience, but we can’t begin to heal without being in a place of nourishment. Sometimes, these healing experiences can feel like a roller coaster. Sometimes, we feel better; other times, we feel worse. But you have to trust the process, trust your body, and surrender to the healing that your body is crying out for. Tune in today to hear more about where our nourishment can take us and what you can expect as you begin your path to healing. You’re not alone on this journey! In this episode: [00:46] Welcome back to the Fully Nourished Podcast!  [01:19] We’re continuing our discussion on blood sugar and nutritional nourishment. [04:01] You must nourish on a cellular level to be able to go deeper. [07:12] The practice of anchoring your blood sugar. [09:06] Nourishment is the beginning of healing. [12:00] Healing is a journey, not a destination.  [14:11] The messages that our bodies are sending us and the work that change requires. [19:20] True healing can feel very uncomfortable as you transition away from a hypometabolic state. [24:01] Your body is constantly telling you what it needs; you just have to decipher the language it uses. [26:03] The journey to healing can sometimes start with chaos as you disrupt the current system, but you have to trust the process. [28:33] Nourishment is the beginning of inviting your body to address some of the functions that have been neglected.  [32:38] Healing is not about fixing the individual broken pieces but trusting our bodies as it takes us on the healing journey.  [34:13] The realization of healing in your physiology and what it looks like.  [38:08] Life will push you out of your comforts to find growth. [40:08] Nourishment is the initiation of your healing journey, and you’re not alone. [42:26] Thanks for listening to the Fully Nourished Podcast!
