Health isn't just your step count, your sleep score, or your "five a day." Health is about whether you're feeling truly, viscerally, undeniably alive. I'm Caitie– registered dietitian, body image counselor, yoga/fitness instructor. After my own (long) struggle with food and body image, I learned that feeling good in your body IS about food, but not JUST about food. On Deep Breaths &amp; Dance Breaks, I dig into simple tools, honest stories, and accessible habits that help you stop white-knuckling your way through wellness and start feeling comfortable in your skin and truly present in your life.
