Most of us develop disordered relationships with food because that food serves a purpose; it becomes a coping tool. So when we no longer have it as a way of comforting ourselves, what happens? How do we deal with that vulnerability and the huge gap it leaves in our emotional support system?
- What does the disordered eating help solve?
- Stef finds restriction the bigger gap; for Sarah, it’s the binges.
- How do we make our own cocoons if it’s not with food?
- Stef’s somatic practice for overwhelm
- Depression energy coming up without the ED
- How yoga helped Sarah go “micro” and anchor into something smaller than existential loneliness and lows
- The role of safety in being able to let go of ED behaviors (because we know they work)
- The Burnout Cycle (per authors Nagoski)
- How does Sarah not panic?
- Fear of death (how did we get to that part of this conversation??)
