This refreshing take invites readers to dismantle body hierarchies and reshape their health habits not by shame but through acceptance, focusing on personal well-being rather than just aesthetics.\\nRead along with the original article(s) here: https://markfisherfitness.com/no-shame-health-hotness/\\nQuotes to ponder:\\n\\xa0"How would your relationship to health, fitness, and nutrition shift if you moved away from shame-based motivation, and moved toward acceptance and self-compassion?"\\n"Instead of focusing on what\\u2019s wrong with us, we have to start focusing on what\\u2019s right about us, refusing to buy into the narrative that some bodies are \'good\' and some are \'bad,\' and offering ourselves the same kind of compassion, kindness, and understanding that we offer everyone else."\\n"Health doesn\\u2019t look any particular way, and it does us all a disservice to assume that lean/thin is healthier than average/fat, because not only does it reinforce the hierarchy of bodies, it also puts our focus on external feedback like size, weight, and numbers, instead of how you feel!"\\nEpisode references:\\nHealth at Every Size: https://www.amazon.com/Health-Every-Size-Surprising-Wellness/dp/1935618253\\nIntuitive Eating: https://www.amazon.com/Intuitive-Eating-Revolutionary-Program-Works/dp/1250004047\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
