In Time Of Emergency: A Citizen's Handbook On Nucl

On episode No. 8 of the Cafe Binge Podcast, I invited a special guest on the show to talk about eating disorders, disordered eating (there's a difference!), body image issues and intuitive eating. Elizabeth A. Thomas is licensed clinical therapist and doctoral researcher who has spent the majority of her LCSW career as an inpatient, residential and outpatient clinical therapist for eating disorders and a researcher in understanding those disorders, their origins and emotional framework—as well as implementing mindfulness and empathy in the treatment and intervention of these disorders. She explains the differences between eating disorders and disordered eating, how to bring mindfulness into eating, how to drop the diet mentality and answers the question, "Can someone be addicted to food?"     Show Notes: The Slow Down Diet: Eating for Pleasure, Energy, and Weight Loss by Marc David Metta Meditation, Loving-Kindness   Elizabeth A.

On episode No. 5 of the Cafe Binge Podcast, I'm discussing the difference between dry skin and dehydrated skin. It's important to talk about, because this is something people get wrong ALL of the time! If you have oily skin, but sometimes feel tight, dry, itchy or dull, this is for you. If you have dry skin that never seems to get enough moisture, no matter how much cream you apply, this is also for you!

On episode No. 2 of the Cafe Binge Podcast, I'm talking about one of my least favorite words. In fact, it's a word I've deemed a "curse word," and one I am actively trying to remove from my vocabulary. The word, to me, is one of the more toxic and shamed-based words be use in our everyday vernacular. It's probably not what you're thinking... because it's not a common 4-letter curse word. I think that eliminating it will lead to less judgment and more self love and expression.   Follow Cafe Binge on Instagram @ cafebinge www.cafebinge.com All original content is copyright 2019 Cafe Binge.
