In today's episode I had the great honor of chatting with Lauren Peterson of White Deer apothecary. I loved hearing about her journey as an artist, herbalist and educator. She taught a class on cyanotypes that lit a fire under me and was so fun and empowering! And I made a bunch of cyanotypes this summer. I chose all my favorite sun prints and compiled them into a calendar for the year. I will have them for sale on my website in the coming days! A few of the highlights in this class are hearing how Lauren is so resourceful and the ways she innovates when she makes fire cider. It was also so fun to hear more about her brand's evolution and how she weaves together creativity and aesthetics with her product line and teaching pedagogy. If you get a chance to buy any of her products, you will not regret it, everything she makes smells and tastes like absolute heaven! And it was so fun to hear about her approach to product design and radical flavor combining. A bit about Lauren:Bio:Herbalist Lauren Peterson is a Juniper-lover, Sacred Journey School of Herbalism graduate & now teacher, and owner of White Deer Apothecary. Lauren's passion for plants grew from her desire to deepen her connection with the natural world and nurture relationships that allow healing to take place. Her favorite places to be are outdoors, in the kitchen, and on the dance floor.Before we get into it, Please remember this show is for educational and entertainment purposes only and not to be used to diagnose, treat, cure, etc. any diseases or issues. Big shout out to Aaron Travers of the band Emptier for the show music.

 How many jokes have you heard about calories? You know the ones where they don't count if you're standing up or upside down or if it's your birthday yada yada yada. Those are just some of the funny ones but there are also some pretty serious ones. These conversations can do a lot of damage.  The fact of the matter is that getting hung up on strict calorie counting or strict restriction can actually contribute to seriously disordered eating patterns. And this can also contribute to seriously disordered exercise patterns. This conversation is no laughing matter and it's something that needs to be looked at carefully. Please take a listen to this, especially with respect to going into the holidays.  If you would like more resources on disordered eating or exercise please contact me at judy@judyarazoza.com

In Episode 88 of the Macabolic Podcast, I was joined by Shannon Beer and James Walsham to discuss whether body image issues and disordered eating is indeed prevalent male issue too (not just female). We discuss what it is to "be a man" and how hard it can be for any male who feels like they fall short of this "alpha dude".  We also discuss why it's especially difficult for males to speak up, be open and seek help from others in this context.  James and I largely provided our own personal experience, whilst Shannon provided more of a research-theory-type perspective.  @mackenziebaker_ @james_walsham @shannonbeer_

Ashley and Rebecca from The Crohn's & Colitis Dietitians talk about all things IBD-related. In this episode Ashley and Rebecca talk about their early days of IBD and also challenges with disordered eating. Ashley starts off the episode talking about how when she was a runner in college she would often push her body beyond it's limits and through injuries, IBD and asthma. She realized that she needed to be paying more attention to her body's signals that it was overtaxed. Rebecca talks about the pressures of diet culture, how she also struggled with disordered eating in college and how she was being very hard on herself with over exercising and restricting calories. One day she knew she had to make changes when she felt like she would pass out from the the over exertion.  Ashley says that she has worked through disordered eating through therapy and finding ways to process pain and struggles. She has decided to make peace with her body and also appreciates her body more. Ashley also talks about a self compassion exercise that has helped her to acknowledge her fears but remember that the fears don't have to control her. Rebecca and Ashley both agree that supportive relationships are so important because those that support us can help us to reframe our experiences and encourage self acceptance so that we can focus on healing. 

My relationship to my body has not always been a good one. In fact, for many years, I had a TERRIBLE relationship to my body. I hated my body, I abused my body, I talked down to my body.....just like so many of us do. However, I am so grateful to say that I have absolutely healed this relationship to my body, to food, and to how I view the sacred home & vessel that is my body. In this episode, I share about how far I've come in my healing journey, the tools that I used to get there, and how loving and accepting your body can give you the confidence that you desire.  TOPICS INCLUDE:1.

Today, I'm talking to Shannon Western. Shannon is a nutritionist who specialises in nutrition counselling for disordered eating. She founded Ease Nutrition Therapy because she saw a huge need for compassionate, person-centred care to help people feel better around food. In this episode, Shannon talks about her approach in supporting clients in healing disordered eating. She is particularly passionate about shining a light on binge eating struggles, as this area is still often overlooked in the disordered eating community.   Shannon is massively encouraging of supporting her clients to enjoy food for health, satisfaction and pleasure. She shares her thoughts on meal plans, considering if you really need one and if so, who might benefit most. She also dives into self-care and how we can decompress and switch off from the busyness of life. Shannon also explains the importance of getting back in touch with childhood foods and genuine food loves. She talks about why she doesn't care what you eat and how she supports her clients in holistic healing. I hope that you enjoy the conversation.

Self-compassion: not typically considered a healing "biohack", but today's show might change your opinion on that. It's fair to say that most of us struggle with self-compassion. With easy access to external influences (hello social media, beauty standards, and manipulative marketing), it becomes easy to view ourselves through an excessively critical lens. Self-compassion is an important part of a complete healing plan, which is why Erin and one of her mentors, Jessica Flanigan Brown, bring this topic to light. Simply put, the concept of self-compassion is foreign to most in the disordered eating space, and especially in mainstream diet culture. Self compassion is the missing link to helping those affected by eating disorders to heal and persevere. Tune in to learn about self-compassion and its critical components, the difference between intuitive eating and the self-compassion-centered concept of "Inner Eater", and relatable client examples where self-compassion-centered treatment has been successful. Walk away knowing how to take your first steps towards practicing self-compassion. Most importantly, be part of the ripple effect of healing and share this episode with someone in your life who may struggle with self-compassion. In this episode: Get to know Jessica [2:21] Why Jessica transitioned from primarily working with autoimmunity to the eating disorder cohort [6:48] Emotional resilience: What is it, and do you have it? [11:18] What are the primary components of self-compassion and how do they relate? [12:08] Why intuitive eating doesn't work for everyone [14:48] How to begin developing self-compassion and trusting ourselves [21:48] How Jessica's concept of our "Inner Eater" differs from intuitive eating [28:48] A few real-world examples of how the "Inner Eater" has been implemented [33:48] What is the path to get started on practicing self-compassion? [47:48] All about Transformational Eating™️ and how to connect with Jessica [49:48] Jessica Flanigan Brown is a clinical nutritionist and author of The Loving Diet. Jessica has been practicing clinical nutrition for 25 years. In her clinical practice, she specializes in gut restoration, and in her coaching practice, she specializes in disordered eating, especially in mid-life. She is finishing at Stanford University School of Medicine's CCARE Applied Compassion Training program, where she will be a certified compassion teacher and educator.

Kim Hagle was a stay at home mom to three young kids when she started working out with a personal trainer. She loved how she felt - and looked - and eventually got certified as a trainer herself. But her hobby-turned-career turned into an unhealthy obsession with size and weight. Kim's journey to self acceptance began with the baby she had at 40: a beautiful boy with Down Syndrome who taught her to just be herself. At the age of 42, she overcame disordered eating and exercise habits, and obsessing over her weight and found joyful movement, body acceptance and food freedom. Guest Bio Kim Hagle is Certified Personal Trainer, Registered Holistic Nutritionist, Body Image Coach and founder of Radiant Vitality Wellness. Kim hosts The Joyful Movement Show podcast, where she inspires women to disconnect movement from weight loss and re-engage with movement as a form of self care. Through movement and mindset coaching, she helps women heal their relationship with food and exercise while disconnecting their worth from their weight, so they can feel healthy, happy and confident in the body they have. A New Hobby Leads to an Unhealthy ObsessionAt 35, Kim Hagle had left her nursing career to be a stay at home mom to her three kids. While she valued being at home with the kids and they could afford for her to be home, Kim had always valued her career. So she found herself struggling  with her identity. She felt a lot of “not enough-ness” and she thought it was because she wasn't happy with her body and she had to lose weight.   While she had a long history of dieting, she had never been athletic and had never worked out. A friend turned her on to a personal trainer who would come to the house while the baby was napping. As she worked out, she started feeling stronger and more capable, and the hobby turned into an obsession. She started running and winning road races and fitness became as much her identity as stay-at-home-mom. She eventually got certified as a personal trainer and decided to turn it into her career - but it pretty quickly turned into an unhealthy obsession.  Kim said she was always a “straight size,” meaning she could always walk into any store and find something that fit. But she thinks most women are conditioned to think that if we just lost weight, we'd feel better. And, at the beginning, she did get a lot of validation and praise for how she looked. But that came with anxiety around “what if I gain the weight back?” In about a year, Kim lost about 50 pounds and dropped from a size 12 to a size 2, but maintaining that required a lot of work. She had to watch what she ate very closely. She had to exercise for multiple hours each day, every day. Through it all, she wondered if there was some accolade or accomplishment that would finally make her feel good enough, but she never found it.  And, when her youngest child was four, she and her husband decided to end their marriage, which caused her to be more obsessive about her heating and working out - not so much as a quest to be thin, but as a mode of stress relief. She found she ran a lot during that time.  A Second Chance at LoveA few months after her divorce, Kim met a man she thought would be a summer fling but who she soon realized was the real deal. They dated long distance for a while and got married when she was 39.  Her husband didn't have any children of his own and as their relationship developed, Kim realized how important it was to him to become a dad. In their discussions about having children, Kim told him that, because of her age, there was a high likelihood that their child would have chromosomal abnormalities. Her then-boyfriend's response was "No big deal. Like If that happens it's what's meant to be, it'll be great. We'll rock it."  At that moment, Kim had a vision of a little blonde boy with down syndrome running towards them. And now they are parents to a little five year old blonde boy with down...

This is one of those episodes where something happens and I need to talk about  it IMMEDIATELY. Like an emergency podcast, but in a good way. I dropped everything to record this because the thoughts came to me and felt so urgent to discuss.And here's what it's about.Putting disordered eating out into the open. Helping people understand what disordered eating is and why it's happening to them. Because here's the thing. Unless you have a clinical eating disorder, then your behavior around food is considered ok, normal and acceptable. Its a very all or nothing approach to wellness around food and is a systemic problem drastically impacting the live of millions of people. It's just that nobody talks about it because nobody even realizes it's happening. As the saying goes, you don't know what you don't know.So this episode is meant to create awareness around how and why disordered eating has become the norm and why we have to take action to change it now. To help you know what you don't know. To offer support for the people out there whose lives have been tormented by food and body image, but who thought it was all just normal. This is for you.Connect with meFind me on InstagramSign up for my Monday newsletter with lots of nutrition, body image and mindset tipsSchedule a free discovery call to talk more about working together

"It's frustrating," says Kaitlyn. Who wouldn't be frustrated? Watching your mind circle around the next opportunity to eat like a moth doing laps around a garden light...is hardly the fully-lived life most of us want to be experiencing. Let's look at how we can help Kaitlyn. Kaitlyn has already made some progress, including a recent win with handling a stressful day without a binge. She's worried that it will be a single outlier experience, though, and wants more strategies to help her feel in control of her eating, as opposed to the sense that eating is in control of her.  Grab a pen because there are a lot of tips and strategies in this one hour conversation! To benefit from all of the real life recorded sessions, subscribe at georgiefear.com/podcast.

You might not be surprised to hear that perfectionism and disordered eating go hand-in-hand… but why is that? And HOW do we go about addressing it?   Disclaimer: I'm not saying everyone who is a perfectionist has an eating disorder, or that everyone with an eating disorder is a perfectionist, BUT the correlation is pretty high.   And if this sounds like you? In this episode, we'll explore what the connection is, why it's there, and most importantly, what to do about it.     Colby is a Registered Dietitian who specializes in eating disorders and disordered eating. She got her Master's in Clinical Nutrition from Columbia, and now she works at a private practice called Brown & Medina Nutrition and is on the eating disorder team at Columbia University Health Services. She has spent years working with young adults and high-achieving students, and comes to us with a great perspective on this topic.   If you're a perfectionist, this one's for you!   Tweetable Quotes “The rules and rigidity around eating is hard to live up to… and often, that results in the breaking of rules which leads to overeating or binge eating.” – Colby Golder, RD   “Health is all intertwined… is it really healthy to miss your friend's birthday party if you're afraid to eat there?” – Colby Golder, RD    “The goal of treatment is not to eliminate health and wellness, but it's to eliminate rumination, stress, and obsession, and to eliminate how it affects your everyday thinking and your ability to operate in everyday life.” – Colby Golder, RD Resources: Brown & Medina Nutrition Colby's Email   LEAVE A REVIEW + help someone who may need this podcast by sharing this episode.

My guest is Casey Halpern, M.D., Chief of Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery and Professor of Neurosurgery at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Halpern's research and clinical practice focus on using deep brain stimulation to treat compulsive and movement disorders (e.g., binge eating disorders, bulimia, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and Parkinson's disease essential tremor, dystonia). We discuss using deep brain stimulation to help patients who suffer from movement and compulsive disorders and applying this treatment to patients afflicted with binge eating. We also explore applications of this technology to other conditions such as OCD, anorexia and tremor, and the future therapeutic directions of the use of non-invasive brain stimulation approaches, including transcranial magnetic stimulation and ultrasound, for the treatment of other psychiatric illnesses and conditions. This episode will interest those curious about the biology of eating, anorexia, bulimia, compulsive thoughts and behaviors, and movement.
