Ivylis opens up about the struggle of staying active while facing the fear of triggering a headache or migraine attack and the resilience it takes to keep pushing forward—a resilience that carried her through the challenging journey of finding a Chronic Migraine treatment plan that worked for her.

What Are The Most Important Things a Recovery Buddy Should Know About Recovery? 22:28

6 days ago22:28

22:28

“What Are The Most Important Things a Recovery Buddy Should Know About Recovery?” In this episode, Emily and Han speak through advice for a recovery buddy who is supporting a healing journey. The key take away points are… - Get to know the basics about recovery in order to be able to provide grounding advice that reconnects your loved one with their healthy self (see rec. resources) - Stand by their side through that discomfort without enabling them to use disordered means to alleviate anxiety. Holding somebody to account to follow through with the most recovery aligned action is the kindest thing you can do. - Acknowledge that the place that somebody is in their recovery is not represented by their weight. Somebody can be ‘under weight’ at any weight, if they are beneath where their body wishes to be. - View recovery with urgency until the point of fully recovered. The amount of deficit somebody is in shows up their behaviours and inner experience. - ‘Better than before’ is not good enough. Encourage unrestricted eating. Remember that under eating is often invisible. - Engage in practical support where possible. Keep offering. Keep challenging. Hold to your word with consistency and plenty of hope. - Acknowledge that the ED will not like the recovery buddy. Friction that arises is not representative of your wrongdoing. Stand firmly in the recovery ground. -Some resources that we both recommend: Tabitha Farrar's ' Rehabilitate Rewire Recover '. Becky Freestone's YouTube videos . Helly Barnes' blog Chris Sandel's ' @sevenhealthcompany '.…

When Do I Start Eating Normally Again? 21:21

21 days ago21:21

21:21

In this episode Han and Emily discuss beginning to eat 'normally' again. The key takeaways are: 'Normal' according to who? 'Recovery eating' may not actually be all that different to Recovered eating. Normalisation happens gradually as your body begins to trust you. There is no neat timeline. Focus on what you CAN do. Just like other resources that it might be deficient in, your body does know how to recalibrate itself and get back to individualised balance. There are some other episodes on this topic of ‘normal eating’ if it is a subject that you find valuable to hear more on ~2023.…

How Do I Navigate Being Ill/Sick in Recovery? 24:39

5 weeks ago24:39

24:39

In this episode, Han & Emily discuss navigating illnesses such as flu or a stomach bug whilst in recovery. The key takeaway points are: ED thoughts can intensify in a low energy state. Listen out for the whispers of honest desire and direction. Do not allow ED to piggy back on ‘standard advice’. REST. REST. REST. Take insights from this experience, using it to identify vulnerabilities. Use the wealth of knowledge that you do have that you have to ensure intake adequacy. After the illness period is over, don’t just get back on track - get above the track! Ask yourself: how I want to be able to treat myself in situation like this in the future?…

How Do I Deal With Fear and Doubt About Life Beyond Recovery? 24:45

8 weeks ago24:45

24:45

In this episode, Han and Emily discuss dealing with anxiety about the future - beyond recovery. Whilst it can be exciting to have freedom awaiting ahead, it is not at all uncommon to have emotions of hesitancy, fear and trepidation opposing these.

Recovery itself equips you to navigate tough life things Your worthiness of support does not rely on your physical condition or diagnosis.

How Do I Shift Away From Thinking About Weight Gain in Recovery? 25:36

11 weeks ago25:36

25:36

In this episode, Emily and Han discuss how to move your attention away from thinking about weight gain in recovery. The key takeaways are: View weight restoration to an unsurpassed point non-negotiable. You cannot accept what you are seeking to side-step Stop weight gain avoidant behaviours . You cannot suggest to your brain that weight gain is safe when still doing weight gain avoidant behaviours that verify the fear. Get clear on your values, and separate these from your EDs values. Nourish what is within your sphere of influence, and true interest. Set yourself up to win Comfortable clothes Stop body checking Remove the scale Where you can, ensure that your environment is not body-focused. Remove energy deficiency - ensure caloric abundance…

Is Intuitive Eating a Good Idea in Recovery? 20:57

12 weeks ago20:57

20:57

In this episode, Han and Emily discuss Intuitive Eating. The key takeaways are: Allowing intuition to guide us involves letting out body perform unconsciously. Therefore, there is a paradox in consciously deciding to begin to doing Intuitive Eating. Intuition is distorted by fear. Following your hunger and fullness is not necessarily safe to do in recovery, when these cues are very likely warped and compromised. Intuitive eating is not just the 'hunger and fullness diet'. It is about supporting your body, oftentimes proactively. Focus on clearing fear with intentionality. Mechanical processes are often required in any process that also involves fear We hope you found value in this episode - as always, we really enjoyed speaking this topic through.…
