What drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? Philippe Tahon, a seasoned psychotherapist and coach, invites you to slow down and embrace the warmth of the season in this heartfelt episode. With the year drawing to a close, Philippe shifts the focus from self-improvement to self-kindness. He gently encourages listeners to acknowledge their end-of-year fatigue, reassuring them that it's a natural response to life's constant demands.
Philippe offers a refreshing perspective on body image and eating habits, reminding us that it's okay to seek comfort in food during challenging times. Instead of striving for control, he suggests listening to our bodies' needs, whether it's rest, warmth, or a little less pressure. The episode is a gentle reminder to treat ourselves with the same empathy we offer others, especially when we're feeling worn out.
Philippe's approach is not about indulgence but about protection and care, urging us to respect our bodies as they are. As the days grow shorter and colder, he highlights the importance of finding warmth and light within ourselves. This episode is a soothing balm for anyone feeling overwhelmed by the world, offering a space to reflect on how we can be kinder to ourselves. So, as you sip your warm drink, consider: what does your body truly need right now?
