Are you wondering why recovery from an eating disorder feels so incredibly hard? 

This episode gets into the hidden reasons behind the challenges and offers real hope.

Eating disorder recovery is daunting because it's a complex battle involving brain function, emotional health, and societal pressure. But understanding the science behind why it’s so tough can help you break free. If you're feeling stuck or overwhelmed, this episode unpacks the neurobiological and emotional reasons for the struggle, providing clarity and support.

In this episode, you'll learn:

- The way your brain’s reward system reinforces disordered behaviors and what you can do to change that.

- How cognitive distortions like black-and-white thinking and catastrophizing keep you trapped in harmful patterns.

- The critical role of nourishment and how malnutrition affects your brain’s ability to engage in recovery.
