Rigid rules can make eating disorder recovery feel impossible when you're living with the overwhelming fear that worst will happen.
In this solo episode Dr Rachel Evans explores a fairly simple practice designed to gently loosen all-or-nothing thinking without involving food, weight, or body image.
You’ll hear:
Why breaking a rule can feel threatening (even the times when you “know” it isn’t)
A small daily experiment that builds flexibility and tolerance for discomfort
Why practising “safe discomfort” can reduce the power of eating disorder rules over time
How to choose changes that stretch you without overwhelming you
This episode is for you if:
You feel controlled by food rules or routines
Breaking a rule triggers loud, critical thoughts
You fear that one change will lead to stricter rules, out of control bingeing or dangerous compensatory behaviours
You want recovery to feel more spacious, not more punishing
