In this bonus episode for Eating Disorders, I sit down with Lula Brown, who is an Intuitive Eating and Holistic Health Coach.

 

She battled her own eating disorder from a young age and into her 20s. She is now in her 30s and helps women who fall into the ‘grey zone’ of eating disorder recovery.

 

Listen in as we talk about:

  • Lula’s motivation to seek help in her recovery
  • What to do if your recovery is in a grey zone (undiagnosed but still wanting help)
  • How to support your recovery by minimizing energy leaks
  • The benefits of meditation in your recovery journey
  • Tips to practice intuitive eating

Additional resources for Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, Binge Eating Disorder: 

 

Note: Not all those who suffer from Bulimia, purge. To get rid of calories and prevent weight gain, people with bulimia may misuse laxatives or weight-loss supplements, diuretics or enemas after bingeing. Or, people will try other things such as fasting, strict dieting or excessive exercise.
