Disordered Eating
and Distorted Body Image frequently
evolve through a complex interaction
of emotions, genetics, and outside stressors.
Viewing damaging behaviors as adaptive
responses to life stress is helpful
in successfully altering eating and
exercise. A Non-Diet Approach focuses
on helping individuals feel better about
themselves so that they become more
realistic and accepting of their bodies,
eat in a more balanced, relaxed way
and are comfortably physically active.
