How to Improve Body-Image in Anorexia Recovery...

7 practical & effective strategies for improving body image.... In today's episode I share how I managed to do a complete 180...I always struggled with body insecurities, and this turned into terrible self-hatred & punishment of my body during the worst of my anorexia. Now, I rarely experience 'bad body image days', and when I do, it doesn't have the same emotional toll. It doesn't consume my day or impact my sense of self worth. It's a great place to be, and its possible for you too! You do no need to settle for a life of body-hate. Recovery and weight gain can be hard in so many ways- body image is just one of them. Eating disorders are more complex than body-fixations or insecurities. The extreme nature of body image struggles in ed recovery are often manifestations of other emotions driven by the disorder. But I hope this episode gives you some practical tips for improving your self-image & confidence! Overview... intro & my experience w body image struggles tip 1: viewing bad body image as a symptom & regulating emotions tip 2: thought-blocking tip 3: building self-respect & trust tip 4: stop body-checking tip 5: 'fake it till you make it' tip 6: self-talk is key tip 7: take away discomfort & enhance other elements of your appearance sharing your tips! outro Thanks so much for listening!
