Shoulders Down
When you live in the diet mindset, you spend much of your time living in your head- constantly tallying, dwelling, and stressing over your food and lifestyle choices. When you become an intuitive eater, you learn to drop into your body and start living shoulders down. The territory below your shoulders contains your innate wisdom and power. Shoulders Down is a podcast designed to teach you how to harness your intuition to govern not just how you eat but also how you live. Shoulders Down Podcast is hosted by Anti-Diet Dietitian and Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor, Leah Kern, who works with clients to heal their relationships with food in her private practice, Leah Kern Nutrition.

In this week's solo episode, we dive into this question:
If weight is not an indicator of health, than how do you explain the "research" suggesting that being fat leads to worse health outcomes? We discuss:
- The fundamental issue with asserting that correlation equals causation in weight research
- The harms of weight stigma (including medical weight stigma)
- The harms of weight cycling
- How to know if you can trust anti-diet research
Before diving into the episode, I give a quick life update.
