Takeaways:

“We live in a society that teaches us to distrust our bodies, and especially if you have a body that is disabled or a body of color, you know, there's so many faces and forces out there that really make it difficult to be in our bodies from this place of trust. And, you know, it makes sense when you see it in that lens, that it's really difficult to improve some part of your body if you don't actually trust this beautiful, wonderful mammalian organism that you have to show up in to do the things that it was designed to do.” - Jeffrey Siegel

“I'll tell you what's not a good tool, again, it's sort of setting up these externally imposed rules and regulations, often are not helpful, right? It's like we set up these sanctions to try to enforce a certain type of behavior without addressing the fundamental thing.” - Jeffrey Siegel

“And so I actually encourage people to sit down with their bodies and have a conversation, and you can do this through journaling. You can do this through meditation, or just different mindfulness exercises, where you learn to start to pay attention to your body, and the signals that it's giving you, and you come into conversation with your body. Right? Not from this place of control, but again, from this place of collaboration where you recognize that you two are on the same team. You want the same thing. You want longevity. You want energy. You want vibrancy.” - Jeffrey Siegel
