20:56
 
Share
 

If you're feeling stuck in your recovery journey, this part 1 of a 2 part episode shares the top hidden barriers that might be keeping you chained to eating disorder patterns - and how to break free once and for all.

IN THIS EPISODE Things to Stop Doing:
  1. Stop Waiting for Perfect Circumstances
    • There will never be a "perfect time" to heal
    • Recovery happens IN life, not separate from it
    • The waiting game is another form of control and perfectionism
    • Recovery requires a decision, not ideal conditions
  2. Stop Spending Time and Energy on Things That Aren't Recovery Priorities
    • Your time and energy are your most precious recovery resources
    • Identify where you're "leaking energy" through triggering activities
    • Ask yourself: Does this support my healing or undermine it?
    • Recovery requires intentional redirection of your resources
  3. Stop Comparing Yourself to Everyone Else
    • Comparison is a recovery killer
    • You're comparing your behind-the-scenes to others' highlight reels
    • Your recovery journey is unique to your body and history
    • The only valuable comparison is to your yesterday self
  4. Stop Changing Course - Results Take Time and Commitment
    • Recovery isn't a race; it's a journey
    • "Recovery whiplash" prevents momentum and lasting change
    • Recovery tools are like muscles - they get stronger with consistent use
    • Before abandoning your approach, ask if you've given it a fair chance
  5. Stop Thinking You're So Out of the Ordinary
    • You are not the only person who has ever navigated this
    • The core patterns of eating disorders are remarkably consistent
    • Feeling "uniquely broken" becomes an excuse to stay stuck
    • Connection to others with shared experiences is powerful medicine
  6. Stop Thinking Short Term
    • You deserve lasting freedom, not just getting through the next meal
    • Short-term focus can lead to decisions that undermine long-term healing
    • Recovery requires balancing daily work with a vision of what you're working toward
    • Think in terms of years, not just days

Remember, you are NOT your eating disorder and you are worthy of a life that is FREE from it.

Come back on Friday, to listen to the 2nd part of Episode 210, where I unravel the remaining 4 things for you to stop doing today! Until then, sending recovery hugs.
