How to Maintain our Physical and Mental Health While Sheltering at Home: Tips from Dietitian Libby Parker

CW: Eating Disorders

Hey all!

Today's blog is going to be a little different. 

In fact, it's going to be a video blog.

Why?

Because this afternoon I had the immense pleasure of interviewing registered dietitian and eating disorder specialist Libby Parker. 

I wanted to sit down with an expert to talk about the challenge of maintaining our physical and mental health during a quarantine. 

Because, boy howdy, is that challenge SIZABLE.

And I truly couldn't have found a better person to interview. 

Two of Libby's specialties are working with performers and working with folks with eating disorders.  

And, as Libby and I discuss in our interview, all too often those two specialties overlap. 

This interview has great tips for anyone struggling with body-image or food issues during this extra stressful time.

Not just performers. 

Not just folks with eating disorders.

Anyone who's struggling.  

Or, to put it another way, let me just share one of my favorite quotes from this interview:

"You are worthy of getting help. You are worthy. Full Stop."

That's all for now!

Enjoy the interview and stay safe. <3
