Hi Emily, thanks for a wonderful video, the reminder that the greatest mascot for recovery is of a true healed self, a core self, is a great image to hold in the mind with practice and training when facing the discomfort of a challenge. Thanks so much Emily.
Hi emily, to be fair even if it's a "straightforward" concept as you always say: "in recovery there's not a knowledge problem" but this does help as a reminder and as a reference to push forward🩷. I also😂 wanted to ask you a question, I've been in recovery for anorexia for more than 2 years, so I haven't done any actual physical exercise since then. However I have gained most of my weight/I've weight restored this August. I don't think compulsive exercise was a component, however I'm unsure whether I can start exercising again. Right now I'm also experiencing a high amount of hunger which I truly am trying (and honestly believe I'm able to fully respond to) my best to honour. Do you have any advice in relation to when to start movement/exercise again? And also how did you manage to go out when experiencing high hunger, because I don't know how to pack enough and I also end up not craving what I packed at times (i pack what I wanted the day before but sometimes I want something else). Thank you for this and for all your videos🩷
OMG, I have the same problem with packing food! It is hard for me to pack enough (especially because I work 12h shifts...) and to follow my cravings because I prepare my meals the day before work. 🤔 It is not very pleasant but I just eat mechanically during these situations (and remind myself that food doesn't have to be perfect, right? 😉)... Xx

And this is why it took me 30 years to recover. As my dietician said, "If you have a back- up plan, you're planning to go back."
I love your videos so much!❤
