About this listen

 One in three people knows someone suffering with an eating disorder. Chasing Hunger unravels the struggles of these issues offering real tools you can use to help reclaim your life from eating disorders. What can I eat? Will I gain weight? What about anxiety? I can’t sleep. I’m having panic attacks and I’m bloated all the time. What about junk sugar and junk foods? I feel ashamed, I feel guilty. These and many more behavior patterns are linked to eating disorders, along with beliefs and values that are often sacrificed in the secretive drive for thinness. The ability to build new resources that support optimal self-care and self-love is a pre-requisite for lasting recovery, built on gratitude and forgiveness.

  • Taking My Life Back from an Eating Disorder

    Taking My Life Back from an Eating Disorder
    Mar 7 2017
    They key is you must be the one to take back your life from these limiting behaviours. Until you say yes, it controls you, and gives you all the excuses to keep on doing what you are doing. And yes, it can kill you. It certainly diminishes the quality of your life's experiences. For me feeding the self, is about “feeling” the self and knowing what to do about those feelings in the moment. You are not a victim. You can change your story any time, make yourself the hero of the story you tell. Where do we find joy? Happiness? Peace, or Bliss? When we release the emotions rather than trying to force them – then these states become our “normal” resting state. That's right, when we are not engaged in our thoughts, our resting state drops us back to joy, happiness, peace, bliss. You can live from this place and take back your life from this eating disorder.
