Between big gatherings with an abundance of food and potentially challenging interactions with family members, the holidays can certainly be a time of heightened stress and anxiety. You may find the urge to rely on old or “self-destructive” behaviors. Instead, read some of our favorite blogs on how to survive the holidays. Whether you are working on recovery from an eating disorder or trying to be a more mindful eater, we think you will benefit from below. We suggest you steer clear of diet talk at the holiday table and we encourage your to bring a favorite recipe to share with others. Start a new tradition and create new memories around eating. Reach out to your LCWNS dietitian if you need extra support this time of year.
