In today’s episode of Bite Back with Abbey Sharp, we explore the powerful connection between our emotions, nervous system, and physical health. Joined by nutritionist, author, and Feel Good Podcast host Kimberly Snyder, we dive into the science of the heart–brain connection, how stress and emotional states shape our physical sensations, and what practices like meditation and breathwork can teach us about self-regulation, intuitive eating, and overall well-being.

•What Is “Heart Intelligence”?
