Do you love your body?
As the creator of Love Your Body, Love Yourself, today's guest helps women access their yes! to that question.
Marla Mervis Hartmann joins us on the show today to talk to us all about loving our body and loving ourselves ... But not in the way that we typically think about loving our body where we try to convince ourselves to love and approve of all of our so called “flaws”.
Rather, Marla speaks about loving yourself as an action and something we can do even if we don’t like how we look.
Inside our interview Marla shares her own story of body acceptance and eating disorder recovery and how spiritual practices such as reiki played an important role in her journey.
She shares a simple 2 minute reiki practice that you can try at home to help you cultivate a sense of self love.
Marla’s new book “BE-Friend Yourself” is available now for preorder at the link in the show notes as well as the free emotional eating course she mentions in the interview.
