Come join us for another AWTR episode featuring Dr. Anita Johnston! Very few individuals who struggle with food, eating, and negative body image understand that there is meaning – often profound meaning – to their struggle. For some a shift in perspective is necessary before they can even begin to make changes in their eating behavior; for many, a different understanding of the function of their eating disorder is essential in order to create and maintain a lifestyle that is free from struggles with food and dieting. Understanding what disordered eating is doing for you rather than simply what it is doing to you is an important part of the recovery process.
In this discussion, Dr. Johnston will use a lively mix of metaphors and stories to help uncover the connection between disordered eating behaviors and deeper hungers that often remain hidden. She will offer practical skills someone can use to put the eating disorder out of a job.
