Topics
Katie: 我和Dr. Patti Kim讨论了衰老、女性健康和美容等话题。我们探讨了社会对女性体重的期望,以及如何区分健康体重和‘虚荣体重’。我们还谈到了更年期,以及如何看待身体的变化和衰老。我分享了我对年龄增长和身体变化的感受,以及我如何努力从积极的角度看待这些变化。我们还讨论了如何通过写作和冥想等方式来应对负面情绪,以及如何找到生活中的平衡。 Dr. Patti Kim: 我分享了我对衰老和女性健康的看法。我强调了区分健康体重和‘虚荣体重’的重要性,以及接纳身体自然变化的重要性。我还谈到了更年期,以及更年期女性如何增强直觉和与更高自我的联系。我鼓励女性在衰老过程中关注内在的成长和转变,而非仅仅关注外在的衰退。我还谈到了如何通过温和的方式来改善健康状况,例如面部针灸等。 Dr. Patti Kim: 随着荷尔蒙的下降,直觉和与更高自我的联系会增强,这并非结束和死亡,而是一场接力赛,接力棒正在传递。在洛杉矶,人们对体重的看法受到社会审美观的影响,许多人追求的是‘虚荣体重’而非健康体重。区分健康体重和‘虚荣体重’很重要,前者是身体自然的状态,后者是个人期望达到的状态。无论是在体重还是职业方面,我们都可能对目标抱有不切实际的幻想,而年龄增长带来的经验能帮助我们更清晰地认识到这一点。体重波动是正常的生理现象,应该被接受和视为生活的一部分。许多人虽然意识到自己的体重并非理想状态,但仍然选择维持现状,因为他们更享受这种状态。随着年龄增长,我们会积累更多经验,从而更清晰地认识到,物质财富、特定体型或一段关系并不能带来完全的幸福。随着年龄增长,我们会逐渐减少对外貌的关注和比较。虽然衰老会带来身体上的变化,但我们也可以选择不去过度在意。女性的健康和衰老是一个周期性的过程,应该关注其内在的转变和成长而非仅仅关注外在的衰退。更年期并非仅仅是身体机能的衰退,更是直觉和与更高自我的联系增强的一个阶段。许多女性在更年期后展现出更强大的力量,这体现了她们与更高自我的联系日益增强。在追求健康的道路上,温和而持续的努力比极端的方式更有效。

Shownotes Transcript

This is part two of last week’s conversation with Dr. Patti, which was recorded prior to the devastating fires in LA. A list of resources is in the show notes below.

Dr. Patti Kim is a naturopathic doctor and acupuncturist in Los Angeles. She’s also my close friend, one of my favorite people to talk to. She came over on New Year’s Day to talk about our end-of-year rituals, including journaling prompts and ins and outs. We also get into self-awareness vs. integration, natural cycles, delighting in the discomfort of being human, and trends in wellness. Plus longevity in every sense of the word, from her career to our aging bodies, parents and pets.

If you haven’t listened to our earlier conversations, they covered gentle naturopathic medicine, wellness vs. enjoying your life, simple quick eating, how loneliness impacts physical health, cocooning, and navigating change while staying present with what is in front of us.
