Have you ever found yourself obsessing over the "cleanliness" and "purity" of your food choices? You might be experiencing orthorexia - an intense fixation on healthy eating that can consume our thoughts and lives. Join Sarah and Abby, as we share about orthorexia and explore how this obsession can leave us feeling exhausted and isolated.
We'll discuss the differences between orthorexia and other eating disorders such as anorexia, and how orthorexia's focus on healthy eating and rigid food rules can impact our cognitive functioning and emotion regulation. If you're questioning whether you're struggling with orthorexic tendencies, we'll provide helpful tips and insights on navigating these food rules and finding the support you need.
Remember, you're not alone - and discovering a healthier relationship with food might just align better with your values.
