448-Coaching the Pendulum Swing of "Not dieting" and Body Comparison Patterns in Clients

The pendulum swing is not a problem. It is a predictable part of healing.

In this episode, I answer two coaching questions that show up with almost every non-diet client.

You will learn simple tools to coach the pendulum swing with confidence.

You will also learn why body comparison spikes during body image work and how to shift your client back into safety.

This episode is packed with practical guidance for coaching the pendulum swing in non-diet clients.

What you'll learn:

Why the pendulum swing happens during non-diet work
How to coach clients through autonomy and psychological reactance
How hidden mental restriction keeps the swing alive
Why body comparison intensifies for clients in transition
How to help clients build new beliefs with compassion
