Did you know that when you pose a question, your brain, for a brief moment, will focus its resources solely on answering that question? This is a mental reflex called 'instinctive elaboration'.

If you find yourself asking low-quality questions such as:

  • “Why do I have no self-control when it comes to food?”,
  • “Why is intuitive eating working for everyone, but not me?”,
  • “Why am I still struggling with binge eating despite my best efforts to stop?”;

your brain will seek answers to these questions.

These answers don’t help you, don’t serve you, and don’t put you in the right mindset.

The higher quality the question, the higher quality the answer will be, so instead of asking yourself low-quality questions, ask high-quality, empowering questions that support you in a positive way. Let your brain come up with creative and motivating replies, that will create an emotion that inspires you to take action.

This week, I will explain how to start asking the right questions that will guide your eating disorder recovery in the direction of real food freedom.
