NWP Episode 184: How Yoga and Intuitive Eating Compliment Each Other with Kara Lydon RD/N
Click here to get your hands on my new free mini course, the Summer Reset!
I’ve always believed yoga is such a wonderful compliment to intuitive eating, and often recommend it to clients who are having a hard time exploring the mind body knowledge part of intuitive eating.
Knowing that Kara is an expert in both areas, yoga and intuitive eating, I asked her to come on the show to discuss how they compliment each other.
Kara Lydon, RD, LDN, RYT, is a nationally recognized and award-winning registered dietitian nutritionist, certified intuitive eating counselor, yoga teacher and the owner of Kara Lydon Nutrition. Kara believes that the key to authentic health and wellbeing is to celebrate food and our bodies, a positive philosophy that she actively practices and instills through the kitchen, yoga studio, working one-on-one with clients, on her food and healthy living blog, The Foodie Dietitian, and in her e-book, Nourish Your Namaste: How Nutrition and Yoga Can Support Digestion, Immunity, Energy and Relaxation. Her blog features delicious, nourishing seasonal recipes and simple strategies for a well-nourished life, and has been featured in countless national online publications.
In this episode we discuss:
