Recovery is rarely linear.

Recovery is full of thoughts and goals that contradict each other.

One part of you may desperately want freedom, recovery, flexibility. And another part experiences fear, uncertainty and ambivalence.

These conflicting thoughts don't mean you're not committed to recovery. They indicate the internal battle between your eating disorder self and healthy self.

Both thoughts and beliefs can exist, but only one will lead you towards the values based action you need to take to heal your relationship with food.

Which of these contradictions resonates with you most?

I don't talk about my exercise and activity much on this page because I don't think it's helpful for this community (similar to the fact that I will never create a what I eat in a day video), however following my run yesterday, it got me thinking about the work I do with clients shifting their food and exercise beliefs.

So here is my little reminder, that you don't have to earn your food and food flexibility and recovery is possible.

Let me know on the comments if this post resonates with you!

Do you ever feel like your foundation is a bit wobbly?

RAVES Model: the foundation and framework to support a positive relationship with food, even in tough times.

I often use the analogy of building a house when I speak to clients about the core principles of the RAVES Model:

The foundation (regularity and adequacy)
The walls (variety, eating socially and spontaneity)
The roof (natural eating practices)

If you don’t have a strong foundation i.e. you aren’t eating regularly or adequately, it’s going to be harder to maintain the strength and integrity of the walls and roof, especially if there is a storm (aka life challenges).

A lapse in disordered eating behaviours might be the equivalent of a tile falling off the roof, a brick becoming loose or a crack forming in the cement foundation. A little might not lead to the house falling down, however over time, those cracks and holes might get bigger. In the context of an eating disorder, it might get harder to challenge diet culture and the eating disorder voice because the safety that a strong foundation provides, has weakened.

If you would like to learn more about the RAVES Model - head to the bio to read our latest blog: Understanding the RAVES Model: A flexible framework for eating disorder recovery or DM me “RAVES” and I’ll share the link with you.

Nutrition does not have to be black and white. Context matters.

Can you guess what it is?

P.s. I completely understand that not everyone would be interested in this. I just like looking at statistics. It's fascinating.

✨ 34 ✨

A few special days of celebrating another lap of the sun with my closest friends. Featuring delicious food, two birthday cakes (because I weirdly baked my own birthday cake and I didn't realise one was being made for me as a surprise), a rainbow, sunshine and lots of laughter.

This last 12 months has featured more tears, overwhelm and challenges than previous years, but there have been more moments of wonderful times which sometimes get overshadowed!

I've collated 10 pieces of wisdom/reflections, carrying on the birthday tradition.

1. Resilience is my superpower, what's yours?
2. Things happen for a reason, even if you can't see it in the moment
3. Your community is one of the most important things in life. 4. Make time for the people that bring you energy
5. My daily check of all of our house plants brings me so much joy
6. What are the small things in life that bring a smile to your day? Mine are my morning coffee, seeing my plants sprout new leaves, dancing in the kitchen, seeing the sun peep through the clouds
7. Talk about your challenges, and express how you are feeling. It's healing and powerful
8. Don't delay starting therapy!
9. London overground > London underground
10. Smile, laugh, cry, do things that scare you because the years pass by too quickly!

Thank you for all of the birthday love, I was overwhelmed by the number of messages I received ❤️

I was inspired by brilliant presentation at the London Eating Disorder Conference yesterday. Fiona was one of the expert by experience guests and spoke about her journey with treatment for anorexia nervosa and autism.

What really struck me was when she shared how that receiving her autism diagnosis (in her early 20's) finally gave her the clarity that she had been seeking for so long that there was nothing wrong with her. She was not unpredictable, non-compliant, challenging or a "failed" admission, she was different.

And different is not wrong.

We are learning more about the treatment of eating disorders than ever before. Some key stats that stood out yesterday were that it is estimated that over 1/3 of people with a eating disorder might have autism AND up to 1/4 of women with anorexia nervosa are autistic.

We need to continue to adapt our treatment, be flexible in the support that we offer and learn from experts by experience.

Eating disorders are coping mechanisms. Please hear me when I say that there is nothing wrong with you ❤️
