Healing Through Stories: Dr. Anita Johnston on Eating Difficulties and Body Image

Eating disorder recovery is the journey home to your true self.
Ever wondered how stories and metaphors can help you heal your relationship with food? In this episode of 'A Quest for Well-Being', Valeria Teles sits down with Dr. Anita Johnston, a psychologist and the author of 'Eating in the Light of the Moon'. Dr. Johnston has dedicated over 35 years to addressing women's issues, eating difficulties, and body image concerns. She shares her unique approach of using storytelling to unravel the complex emotions tied to eating disorders. Dr.
Johnston, who serves as the Clinical Director of ‘Ai Pono Hawaii and the Executive Director of Eating Disorder Programs for the Integrative Life Center in Nashville, dives into how connecting with our true selves can lead to profound healing. She discusses the importance of balancing our inner masculine and feminine energies and how these imbalances often manifest as eating issues. The conversation is enriched with insights into Hawaiian culture and language, which Dr.
Johnston uses to illustrate the balance of body, mind, and spirit. She also introduces us to the Light of the Moon Café, an online community where women from around the world gather to share their journeys and support each other. Whether you're struggling with eating difficulties or simply interested in the transformative power of stories, this episode offers a compassionate and enlightening perspective. Dr.
Johnston's blend of clinical expertise and storytelling makes for a deeply engaging listen that could change how you view your relationship with food and your body.
