A New Approach to Eating Disorders - healing the unsafe emotions that lie underneath
Manage episode 366615174 series 2863260
In this New Approach to Eating Disorders I tackle the important subject of Disordered Eating. The problem isn't about the food, interestingly. Eating is the way that the craving brain tries to create a distraction (a form of dissociation) to the problem of unresolved emotions - ones that are not able to be safety from childhood.
For more on this see my book The Scar that Won't Heal and The Craving Brain by Ronald A. Ruden
