Rebecca Perkins struggled for years to help her daughter, Bea, get well from anorexia. In this podcast episode, Rebecca shares how all-consuming the issue was. And then, when Rebecca stumbled across the Three Principles, which point toward our innate health, wellness, and well-being it was a game-changer for her and ultimately also for her daughter.
Bea is now fully recovered from anorexia and together mother and daughter have written a book about their experience and their new understanding that knowing where our thoughts and experience of life are coming from can release us from the self-imposed prisons we sometimes find ourselves in.
In the introduction I mention the exploration I’ve had in the last week about habitual thought storms and their persuasive but predictable nature. You can read more detail in the blog post.
