Embodiment in Recovery with Holly Sunday

This week, we’re joined by the lovely Holly Sunday: co-founder of Hi Beautiful ED Recovery Coaching, co-host of the Beyond Body podcast, and fellow coach at Beyond Body Coaching.

We look at what it means to truly ‘be’ in your body again — and discuss all the difficult feelings that come up at the prospect, especially after years of struggling against that same body. Holly shares her own story of finding full recovery, how she brings embodiment into her work with clients, and the practices that helped her reconnect with herself.

We’ll also explore the process of learning to feel safe in yourself again; using curiosity as a tool; the power of stillness — and the small, joyful rituals that make daily life feel more grounded, be that silent retreats or rediscovering the pleasure of cooking again!

Topics covered:

* What embodiment means and why it matters

* Holly’s journey to full recovery and coaching

* Practical ways to reconnect with your body

* The joy of cooking and mindful nourishment

* Finding stillness through silent retreats

* The role of mindfulness in recovery

* Words of wisdom for early recovery
