  5 Ways An Eating Disorder can be a Coping Strategy | Eating Disorder Recovery | Food Freedom

  Aug 11, 202619 min

  An eating disorder is often a coping strategy for deeper distress. It can be a way to gain a glimmer of self-esteem, when you don't feel good enough. It can be a way to find a sense of control, when life feels uncontrollable. It can be a way to numb and distract from difficult emotions. It can become part of an identity as the thin or healthy person. It can be a way to communicate, when it is difficult to communicate through words. Time slots: 4:42 Self-worth glimmers. 6:38 A sense of control. 7:59 Distracting or numbing difficult feelings. 9:33 Giving an identity. 12:51 A way of communicating to others, what cannot be communicated through words. I hope that you find it helpful.

  Pregnancy and Post-partum When You Struggle with Disordered Eating, Eating Disorders and Body Image

  Aug 7, 202628 min

  Pregnancy and Post-partum Tips When You Struggle with Eating Disorders and Body Image Issues Are you pregnant or do you have a new born baby? Are you struggling with body image and food? This is a topic, I haven’t talked about before. I don’t know why! I have three children myself with first-hand experience of going through two pregnancies and two post-partum periods. My daughter came first and then twin boys second time. Two years apart. It was VERY intense on many fronts! Pregnancy can be hugely challenging – if you have body image struggles and food anxieties. If you’ve previously used food or a focus on body as a means of coping – you can be placed in the driving seat of stress. Pregnancy and babies bring joy and wonderment but can also bring anxiety, change and life upheaval. You can feel out of control. You might experience isolation or loneliness, a change in your body, a shift in your identity – now being a mother and also readjusting your previous relationship to work and who you are. Having a baby is a huge life transition, it’s truly wonderful and it’s sometimes incredibly hard. I share 12 tips to support you (based on my personal experience and client shares from the therapy room) including: - Managing weight changes. Feelings about fueling yourself. Managing health appointments and expectations of weight monitoring. How to focus your mind helpfully. Managing negative body thoughts. Clothing issues. Your daily body image habits. Self-care: sleep, hydration and prioritising yourself. Nutrition. The importance of relationships and support. Maintaining a thread of purpose and identity for yourself. Keeping the bigger picture of values and your own alignment in mind. I hope that you find it helpful.

  Trauma Focus: Healing From The Body Level Up (HBLU™) with Dr. Judith Swack

  Aug 4, 202654 min

  Today, I'm talking to Dr. Judith Swack who is a biochemist, immunologist, and originator of the Healing from the Body Level Up™ (HBLU™) methodology that helps people clear trauma rapidly by addressing the full system, including the body, nervous system, unconscious mind, and soul. Her work bridges science and practical application, offering a structured approach to resolving anxiety, PTSD, chronic illness, and behavioral patterns that do not respond to traditional therapy alone. Dr. Swack has spent decades researching how trauma imprints across multiple levels of the human system and developing targeted protocols to clear those patterns. Her approach integrates elements of psychology, neuroscience, NLP, applied kinesiology, and energy psychology methods to produce measurable shifts in a short period of time. She is the author of "Clear Trauma Now: The Powerful Solution for Getting Unstuck," and trains practitioners internationally, helping expand access to faster and more effective trauma resolution. Known for making complex concepts accessible, she helps audiences understand why trauma persists and what it takes to fully resolve it. In this episode, Dr Judith talks about how incredible work and gives us valuable insights into trauma healing, sharing personal experience and practical examples. I hope that you enjoy it.
