20. A dancer’s struggle with orthorexia with Lauryn Elder
Manage episode 299652940 series 2887098
Our storyteller, Lauryn Elder, shares her experience as a former professional dancer…and a person who basically grew up in a dance studio. At some point she eventually realized the tremendously positive and impactful ways in which the dancing world shaped her behaviors from the inside out…including her experience with orthorexia.
As you listen, I invite you to consider how the environment sets the stage for behavior change, how behavior operates in context, and how it is shaped over time. A little later on, we will dig a little deeper into behavior function—or in other words, how our behavior patterns serve a purpose but may not necessarily always serve us or our values.
