EP 53: What to Do When ”the Voice” in Your Head Gets Louder & Louder? + 7 Tips to Stay Grounded in Your Truth


Listen Later

Hi lady!

How is your week going so far? I hope you are embracing summer in all the chaotic, yet somewhat relaxing vibes it brings. 

This week, I had a listener of the Her Best Self Podcast write in to us asking the question:

"What do I do when that "voice" inside of my head gets louder in louder? I'm trying to navigate healing from disordered eating but the voice doesn't go away. Any help or feedback you could give on the show would be wonderful!"

So to answer your question Marie, in today's episode I share 6 Tips (+ a bonus tip) on how you can tell that "voice" to sit down & shut up!

The truth, according to researchers is that over 90% of individuals with an eating disorder, or those who suffer from disordered eating, experience a self-critical inner voice that can be distinguished from self-critical thoughts or cognitions. According to an article in medium.com, researchers have proposed that as the illness progresses, these unhealthy thoughts (thoughts that motivate eating disordered behavior's which may initially have seemed reasonable or even desirable) are replaced by the experience of hearing a ‘voice’ that is threatening & abusive, dictating & compelling the person to act in ways they recognize are unreasonable & which cause them significant distress.

So with this in mind, I knew I MUST share with you what exactly YOU can do about those pesky thoughts & that mean girl voice, that sits in your mind trying to control food & manipulate your body.

Tune in today friend to learn how you can separate this false reality from your TRUE reality & identity.
