Making Peace With Food

July 11, 2018 By Arminda Leave a Comment

A Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, Eve Lahijani‘s journey to helping women (and some men) heal their relationship with food, trust their bodies and experience ease with food in any situation is only possible because she first did that for herself.

From the time she was a very young girl, Eve felt unseen, unheard and unimportant, that her voice didn’t matter. The only thing she felt she had any power over was what went into her body, when she fed herself, and what amounts were “acceptable.” Her desire to exercise her innate power became a shameful, unhealthy, obsessive, and addictive relationship with food.

I hope you enjoy this conversation. Let me know your thoughts in the comment section below!

015: Marylou Falstreau on Loving Yourself

February 23, 2016 By Arminda

Marylou Falstreau Interview on Loving Yourself

The All Arminda Show

Marylou Falstreau
Marylou and I met on Twitter and I’m so incredibly delighted I reached out to her and even more delighted that she agreed to speak with me! May your experience of her work be similar to my “heart response” when I saw her art.

During this episode, Marylou and I talk about the significant work she’s doing impacting women’s lives through the visual medium of her art and why she started the Women and the Hourglass series of paintings that resonate so powerfully with women.

Each message, each woman, is pointing her finger at me and saying, ‘Wake up, Marylou! Make a different choice! Make a different decision!’

Addiction has been part of Marylou’s family story and her personal journey and learning about addiction led us into a deeper discussion around what it means to love ourselves and what practices we can implement to remove the foreign concept of love into a practical application and a regular practice for ourselves.

Marylou is most interested in living a life of truth telling, allowing others to tell their stories, their heartaches, to talk about getting better, learning more, waking up and being in conversation about that from an authentic point of view.

Marylou’s Excellent Advice

  1. Be real.
  2. Be honest.
  3. Tell the truth.
  4. Love ourselves so we can love others.

Be sure and look at Marylou’s gorgeous artwork on her website.
