The need to control your BODY is actually about controlling something ELSE.
Hello and Happy Tuesday!
Today’s video is all about what’s going on when body image issues come down to a need/desire for control — and how obsessively controlling our bodies is actually about controlling some other aspect of ourselves!
Sometimes obsessive body control means you’re loyal to counting macros, and get really upset if someone invites you to a last-minute brunch that you didn’t “account” for in your macros for the week.
Sometimes it means wearing mascara no matter what, sleeping in it if you have to, to make sure that nobody ever sees your face without it.
And sometimes it means weighing yourself every morning, and changing how you eat and exercise that day based on the number you see.
If you resonate with these kinds of body control habits, this video is for you!
In it, I give you three different common examples from my coaching practice of what you might actually be trying to repress, squish down, or keep under control when you’re obsessed with controlling your body.

Enjoy, and let me know what you think in the comments!
