Hey everyone,
I found an article about how "adventure therapy" can be helpful in recovering from eating disorders. Adventure therapy would basically be patients trying new activities, like hiking, dancing, and any other things that involve a lot of physical activity, in order to raise levels of confidence and a motivation for change. I defientely agree with this because aside from learning that you have an ability to do an outdoor activity well, or even if you don't yet have the ability but want to develop it, it can serve as an incentive to do well with meals and follow the meal plan and do what needs to be done. I know this because there were things that I was told I could do but not before I maintaniend a healthy weight for my body structure and wasn't engaging in ed behaviors. This helped a lot because I wanted to get to do those things. The biggest one for me was horseback riding. Anyway here is the link to the article and I hope you'll read it and leave some feedback.

I think that if somebody face their fears or try different things they would get over their disorders
