EP 209: Use the R.A.I.N. Method to Quiet Those Eating Disorder Thoughts in Just 5 Minutes a Day☔

  • Resumen

  • In this episode, I discuss the importance of making yourself the priority in recovery and I introduce the powerful RAIN method. This method can be used just 5 minutes a day for practicing mindfulness and self-compassion during difficult moments in your eating disorder recovery journey. Your Assignment is YOU This season is about planting seeds for your own growth and healingYou need permission to make your recovery the prioritySelf-care isn't self-indulgence—it's essential recovery workRecovery takes root when you commit to "watering your garden first" The Seasons of Recovery We expect constant productivity from ourselves but don't apply the same standards to natureThere are natural seasons for growth, rest, and transformationThe eating disorder thrives when you're depleted and exhaustedRest and self-nurturing create the conditions for healing What It Means to "Water Yourself" Providing consistent, adequate nourishment without food rulesHydration—both literal and metaphorical waters of connectionExposure to things that bring joy and remind you who you areRest periods where you're simply being, not producing The RAIN Method Breakdown Recognize what's happening in the moment without judgment Notice triggers, urges, thoughts, emotions, and physical sensationsName what you're experiencing to create space between you and the experience Allow the experience to be there without trying to fix or change it Stop fighting against difficult emotions or thoughtsBreak the cycle of shame by acknowledging "this is what's happening right now" Investigate with kindness and curiosity Ask gentle questions: "What triggered this?" "What am I really needing?"Notice where you feel sensations in your bodyIdentify the stories you're telling yourself Nurture yourself with self-compassion Offer yourself what you truly need in the momentSpeak to yourself as you would to a dear friendRemember that difficult feelings will pass I hope Episode 209 blesses you & that you share it with someone else who may benefit! xo, lindsey Find All the Things -> wwww.herbestself.co ______ Coach with Me ->Client Application ______ Email me directly -> info@lindseynichol.com ______ Join the free FB community -> www.herbestselfsociety.com ______ Need a helping hand guiding you girl!?
