I wonder if you have ever heard those words?
“Tell me what was going on in your life the first time you remember this happened.”
When it comes to our struggles, we are used to explain the symptoms.
We name what hurts or troubles us, and the doctor or practitioner tries to find a solution.
This works nicely when it comes to something like an acute chest infection or a broken foot.
But complex challenges, as eating challenges usually are, cannot be solved with a one-dimensional approach.
For example, how many of us have heard the following many times: “Exercise more, and eat less!” Or ”You just need to have more willpower!”.
It is a quick-fix approach. One that doesn’t acknowledge that challenges with body image and eating behaviours are nearly always multi-faceted and also completely individual.
If we don’t know why a symptom has developed in the first place, then we will never be able to truly help that person.
So to understand each person’s story is key to being able to truly help them.
If you struggle with challenging eating behaviours, body images or other related topics, then ask yourself right now:
What was going on in my life the first time I remember this happened?
The answer is the doorway to your own, personal healing. 🌸
This is why working with me is truly individual and holistic.
I will listen to your story, and together, we will find ways to help you make lasting changes.
