Navigating The Holidays and Christmas With An ED

The Holidays can be such a difficult time if you have an eating disorder. In this episode we largely focus on Christmas, but this can apply to any holiday you celebrate which can disrupt your routine, bring you around different people, expose you to different foods and comments, and generally create stress for you. We chat around our own experiences of managing the holidays in our recoveries, and how to take actions over the holiday period which move you towards where you want to go in life (aligned actions), and keep you prioritising your recovery so that when the day/season passes you are still on track.

Topics covered:

•⁠ Some of the difficulties of the Christmas period with an ED

•⁠ ⁠Handling comments

•⁠ ⁠Handling different eating times and unknown routines

•⁠ Practicing different foods in advance

•⁠ ⁠Clothing and Christmas outfits

•⁠ ⁠Seeing this year as a stepping stone for next year

•⁠ Managing that need to show up as a ‘super happy’ version of you

•⁠ ⁠New Years - resolution setting and reflecting on another year passing
