In food recovery, we can almost get used to the activation and we can get comfortable in that place of fight, flight, freeze or please.
Part of the recovery work is recognizing that a lot of the stuff we work through in recovery was done to us, that it was programming but that it’s not the end of your story.
As much as we want to understand what happened and why we do what we do, I want to remind you to not forget to orient to the good.
Consider the beauty in your surroundings, in nature, whatever brings you joy.
When we’re doing this food work, there will be activation and a lot of times we can focus on how to get rid of the action but there is also the opportunity for us to orient ourselves to joy.
