Hello and welcome to The Breathing Body Podcast - My name is Flurina and I am your host, and I am so happy that you are here.

Eating disorders, food struggles, body image issue, body shame, … we are living in a world in which many of us live a life disconnected from their bodies, numbing their feelings and neglect their needs. Always running, never arriving.

I am so grateful to open the space again to talk about eating disorder recovery as it is a process full of challenges and GIFTS, teaching us to become our own best coach, learning to listen to our feelings and nurture our needs.

This conversation is for YOU, no matter if eating disorder is part of your history, as my guest, Meg McCabe shares inspiring inputs for daily rest and self-care routines and her story is pure motivation for all of us to listen to our true self and "go all in" with what it tells us to do!
