Today we’re diving deep into the secret feelings of guilt and shame we often carry -- but don’t dare to speak about or admit… not even to ourselves.
We're sitting down with Anna Surrey, an Intuitive Eating & Positive Body Image Coach to openly explore some of the very deep patterns we carry around eating, dieting, and food.
Anna grew up in Germany and moved to Australia at the age of 20, where she taught Pilates and was seemingly a beacon of healthy eating, with the body to show for it. But, there was still some secretly lingering patterns of anorexia and binge-eating that lurked in the shadows, cloaking hidden feelings of self-loathing and shame.
One night, she had a breakthrough (disguised as a breakdown, which they often are) when she became fully present to the hellish experience tangled up inside her relationship to food, to her own body, and all the behaviours associated with it.
This moment led her on the deepest spiritual journey of her life and brought her to the work she’s doing now. She began the process of excavating and facing her deepest fears and insecurities — and realizing that this unconscious body shame is actually here to be a profound teacher in our lives.
Anna teaches a non-diet approach to overcome food challenges such as binge, over- and emotional eating. She assists women to re-learn how to trust their bodies to make food choices that feel good- without self judgment or shame.
Anna struggled for 20 years with a wide range of disordered eating behaviours, health & weight obsession, exercise addiction and body-dysmorphia.
This all changed once she discovered how to trust her body through the freedom of intuitive eating.
For the first time, she experienced confidence, well-being, and feeling truly at home in her body like ever before.
Since then she has been working with women in her 1:1 mentorship program: Food Freedom Solution.
Anna combines a wide range of techniques and tools to help her clients overcome their own personal food and eating challenges- without dieting or food restrictions.
If you’ve been struggling with your relationship to your body, food, or exercise obsession, then this is one conversation you won’t want to avoid.
We’re exploring how these sneaky, self-destructive patterns can show up in unconscious ways that slowly erode our confidence and sense of worthiness, stealing joy from all areas of our lives, and some specific things you can do to free yourself from this trap!
