The Inside Scoop on Eating Disorder Recovery by Colleen Reichmann

We knew when we set out to write this book that we absolutely had to find ways to incorporate journaling throughout. We have seen the power of journaling in our own journeys, and when working with our clients. What led you to include the journaling prompts and other exercises in your chapters? So, we included this quick quiz to help simplify things for people and explain that ANYONE struggling with an unhealthy relationship with food and their body, which is impacting their quality of life, is 100 percent ‘sick enough’ for treatment and support. telling you that ‘you aren’t sick enough’ for XYZ reason. This is a common trick that eating disorders use in order to keep people sick, i.e. So many clients (and this was the case for both of us, too) struggle with this belief of ‘not being sick enough’ when it comes to their difficulties around food and their body. Please tell us about the value of your quick quiz which is entitled, “How to tell if you are ‘sick enough.’” The journaling prompts and exercises threaded throughout the book are perfect for clinicians, dietitians, and coaches to use with their own clients. We also wrote it for other professionals in the field. We hope that the book will allow them to look inside the mind of someone with an eating disorder, which will lead to more empathy and understanding. But we also wrote it with family and loved ones in mind. We are hoping that this book benefits a variety of people – of course we wrote it first and foremost for anyone struggling with an eating disorder.
