Today I am joined by Ariana Rodriguez, one half of the dancing dietitians from Embody Health London, who specialise in treating chronic dieting and eating disorders.

With Ari, we begin by discussing the EHL method and the importance of providing a variety of therapeutic methods to clients during recovery. We discuss the various treatment modalities offered, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

We discuss the role of an eating disorder and the brains desire to choose comfortable, anxiety relieving behaviours despite the long term impact, and discuss grounding techniques to navigate these situations in a more recovery productive manner.

Following this, we discuss the support groups available at EHL, and the importance of community in recovery. We discuss the role of others experiences, comparison, and boundaries.

Finally, we discuss the idea of full recovery, the idea that all individuals have the capacity to fully recover, and the readiness required to embark on the recovery journey.
