Body Kindness by Rebecca Scritchfield

Description

Body Kindness
 
Rebecca Scritchfield is the author of Body Kindness. In this episode, we discuss the Biggest Looser white paper that shed light on why so many contestants regained the weight. It is a message of compassion that helps us understand how our weight on the scale is so much more complicated than just calories in and calories out.
 
She also shares practical strategies of how to reset your relationship with food and life. 
 
Her book is one of the most beautiful books on the market. I've caught myself thumbing through the pages in awe of how much care was put into it's design and ideas. It's one you'll revisit for years to come.
