Coping with Job Loss
Opportunities are around you; choose the ones that pick you up and carry you forward.

There are a number of steps you can take to ensure you’re ready to return to work without putting your mental health at risk.
Coming out as a person who had been living with mental illness helped me not only find my voice but realize I always had one.
As I began to accept that recovering from depression did not mean outgrowing my support system, it became easier to fight.
Say no to fear. Embrace your imperfections, they make you who you are.
It’s important to be patient with yourself and remember even the smallest steps forward add up.
When I work with a client who has IBS, one thing I always want to work through with my clients is how the IBS could be related to the eating disorder.
Turning eating into a positive experience is certainly a goal of recovery, but it’s okay if that’s not where you’re at.
As you are standing in front of the mirror at the end of the day, reflecting back on everything you did or didn’t do, remember: You are enough…and that’s all you need to be.
Speaking up might feel weird. Calling someone out is never easy, but you have every right to respectful and good care.

Remember, mindful eating is flexible and built in non-judgement. Practice curiosity while eating and find what works best for you.
Summer is here and if you are new to the practice of intuitive eating, you may be freaking out about upcoming travelling. This video offers some tips.
I talk about obsession vs. commitment often in regards to exercise (watch my video here). Recently, however, I’ve been thinking a lot about how this relates to Intuitive Eating as well.
This week I learned the importance of keeping your fridge stocked. And no, I don’t mean just making sure there is food in it (though that is also important), I mean making sure there is a variety of food in it.
Developing healthy habits can be tough for those of us recovering from disordered eating. When I finally swore off dieting and calorie counting years ago, I felt lost.
In reality, there is no difference between the amount of self-discipline and control needed to stick to intuitive eating and to stick to a diet.
