125: Hypnosis + Energy Work for RED-S Recovery

In this episode of the Female Athlete Nutrition podcast, I talk with Rise Up Nutrition’s mindset coach, Jennifer Riggs. Jennifer is a certified hypnotherapist focusing on emotional integration to produce positive changes, and provides our clients at Rise Up Nutrition with additional mindset support. She also practices energy work and other alternative healing modalities, and this episode is a deep dive into this and much more. We define and debunk practices like hypnotherapy, Inner Child work, Reiki, energy balance, and Emotion Code. We explore how getting in touch with your emotions, past and present, can help you find the answers to getting unstuck in your healing and recovery journey. Jennifer shares how she guides clients through these therapies, helping them tune into their intuition, understand the roots of their struggles, and improve their self-worth. Jennifer speaks from personal experience as to how energy balance work can be used for healing relationships with food, body, and exercise. She highlights her own mindset coaching program and business, Progressive Hypnotherapy, which you can check out here: https://progressive-hypnotherapy.com  Follow Jennifer on Facebook at Jennifer Riggs Mindset Coach and me, your host Lindsey Cortes, on Instagram @female.athlete.nutrition  We have a huge announcement!
