By practicing somatic awareness, we can use constriction as a guide to inform our boundaries, and connect the somatic and cognitive "yes" or "no". Luis also takes time to answer questions that were posted in the comments of a previous recording. Yo...

Very interesting breakfast options… I like the second one especially. Thanks so much!
Is there an alternative to nut butter? I don't like any of them.
thank you so much for sharing❣
I have known this intuitively on some level, but this brings words/education to what I have sensed for myself about when I eat breakfast. Thank you. So, I am wondering what you might recommend for how to schedule my breakfast and morning workouts..??? I don’t like to workout too soon after I’ve eaten, and I also am not sure I can always be done with at workout within an hour of waking so that I can eat after, not to mention working out on an empty stomach might not be good for adrenals in the first place??? ..weird that it feels good to me to work out on an empty stomach, though, as long as I workout and eat soon enough after waking. Anyway, thoughts?….
That´s so helpful and precious for me, thank you Luis! I´d like to know if you have any idea what to eat at my work break - normally I´m feeling so low and stressed that I´m craving coffee and sugar... but maybe changing my breakfast will change cravings in the afternoon too..
Tysm!!! This validates so much for me. I will try this out! :)
Hi! I usually start my mornings with a short low intense 20 min run before I eat my first meal, would you advice against it of my goal where to not activate my adrenals first thing in the morning?
Love your content as always. Question about psyllium husk- is it necessary to drink it dissolved in water, or do you get the same benefits in capsule form? (In general, not necessarily specific to fasting, but also would there be a difference in either context?) I’ve been incorporating psyllium capsules daily for a few months now. I’m no longer *intentionally* intermittent fasting.. basically I easily go long periods sometimes forgetting to eat, & definitely notice a spike in my stress response so I’m trying to get better about that.. everything you speak to on the detrimental effects of skipping meals when already in an over-adrenalinized, stressed out state makes so much sense & definitely is my experience. I can feel my body go into a fight or flight/survival response.. so I try to keep healthyish bars or mixed nuts handy. Not the best, but I really struggle with skipping meals, & staying on top of meal prep so I try my best to avoid eating junk but not starve 😅 **a suggestion for future content- quick, healthy meals/snacks for on the go when you don’t have time to prepare a meal. I’ll definitely be incorporating your upgrade here to my overnight oats, & I’m thinking hard boiled eggs with the beans & greens would be a quick work around. Thanks Luis! 🙏🏽
Absolutely, love my journey homeward 🎉
Nice takes on this! Monica and her mom are wonderful! I just uploaded my new song touching on this topic.
This hit the reset button for me. I’m out of my doom spiral now, thank you very much.
❤ refreshing openness and honesty
Reassuring and Refreshing hearing this conversation ❤❤❤❤
I'm a current SE student. Love your perspective on self sabotage and how you explain. Thank you!
Hi Luis. This is a silly comment, but I'd like to know how you did the border or your screen. It looks so finished.
I am really liking your topics as I scroll through them, I think I'll set time aside to binge a bit
That very cool, that you speak your truth without looking for approval from others!
Thank s for sharing your experience I wish we could all talk freely with an open mind like you do about this puzzling subject
I experience body dismorphia from a young age I see myself bigger and uglier than I am and it amazes me that I never ever ever see myself as I am really in the moment so I have to take a picture of me and only 1 year later I see how I really was back then…. I don’t get it…. It s mind blowing😮😮😮😮😮
Oh I get it
Thank you so much 💚🌿
I googled what is neurodivergent and I didn’t get it s definition…. So what is neurodivergent? And I absolutely loved this video….inability to perform inability to do what s not desired I can relate….
Hi Luis! I love your content btw. Can you speak on fruit sugar? Does this also create stress on the body due to insulin spiking? Thanks 🙏🏼
What an incredible conversation. Thank you!
Buck is one of the reasons I am less and less scared to "grow old", I love the wisdom his age brings and how time made him love himself and evolve in general.
I normally listen on iTunes but this was worth the RUclips watch so I could have the added pleasure of Michelle's amazing hair.
its how we get it, and who we share it with. if we can color healthier choices as more care for eaxh other maybe we can do this. thank you love you and may that find all beings xoxo
thank you so much for this ❤
Curious what you thought of RFK Jr.'s speech about the Democratic party and joining Trump?
Would I be right in thinking that this approach would be helpful for any addictive behaviour, not only binge eating?
Find you via buck Angel, more shorts like this pls
This content is SO important. It amazes me that ive been a practitioner in the field of sexuality for a decade and have never heard someone break this down as clearly and straight forward as u do. I believe this info would bring so much healing to the women i work with.. definitely checking your webinar! So would u say the only way out of this is to become very attuned to our somatic symptoms of fawning so that we can notice and interrupt them in the moment?
Your insights and the way you articulate the binge eating phenomenon is incredible. Thank you for sharing your personal experience it completely mirrors mine and I'm sure it mirrors many others - appreciate this video
thank you! this video answers the questions I have had recently. I know I need to process what has been coming up but as soon as I was recognizing the craving I was already giving in to it. I'm glad I have a tool now to try the next time it happens. so thankful for all your work!
Great video!
You are an amazing human being and I am so grateful to have found you. 💚✨🫶🏻
That *BEEEEP* Fuck you was hilarious! This is a fun practice lol, I will certainly be incorporating this into my meditations as needed.
Also, is your necklace pinecone?
I use social media to follow beautiful artists and spiritual/phycological content. And people who inspire me…
Whaaaat..? Bad business decision??! Things are getting too far with “business”… The whole system is a business profiting from suffering. Not everything is about business. How long would it take for everyone to get such simple thing that it’s about everyone when someone suffers. That things need to be changed. Wake up wake uuuuup
Loved this, I got a lot out of this, thanks both of you.
What is the difference/relationship between fawning and people pleasing? I always believe this behavior to be from my people pleasing tendencies
I happened upon this video and I just had no idea that I was doing this until you really spelled it out. I’ve had so many troubling situations with this and especially in my marriage and it became so problematic but at the same time I couldn’t really pinpoint what was happening for me. This clears so much up and I realized through therapy that I had been abandoning myself in so many ways in order to appease someone due to emotional and verbal abuse but I couldn’t fully understand when it came to the sexual side of the relationship. I’m divorced and hoping to one day try to have another relationship and certainly something I need to learn more about how to manage moving forward. Thank you!
u rule
Thank you for answering my question°!
I love all this..started adding beans to my diet once i heard you on another podcast about sugar and addiction..gave up 95% of my sugar intake also..but I have one question... What about food combining? I heard 'eat nuts before a soda' and my belly felt the bloat just thinking about it
Today as I was listening was the first time I’ve been in my body for about 3 weeks. Your rambles and laughter reminded me of some of the lessons from the course. Thank you! ❤
how can I recover I have sexually fawned and I feel shame about it?
7 stages of grief
check out my webinars on fawning. They're on my website.
What kind of exercises can you do with a safe partner to explore what fawning feels like and to clarify consent?
Go to my website and check out the sexual fawning webinar and tell me if you have more questions.
Thank god for this content. I’ve wanted a verbal explanation for this for years and the way you deliver this is so straightforward, clear, and validating. Thank you Luis.
So glad. xoxo
Fucking brilliant ❤
OMG I love this!! have to listen to it over and over! thank you!
