In this week’s episode of The Alcohol ReThink Podcast Patrick is joined by the author and podcast host of Brain Over Binge, Kathryn Hansen.

Kathryn stopped binge eating for good in 2005 and has been on a mission ever since to help others with this challenge.

After writing the hugely successful ‘Brain Over Binge: Why I Was Bulimic, Why Conventional Therapy Didn’t Work’ in 2011, Kathryn then published ‘How I Recovered for Good’ in 2012.

Kathryn's books and podcast have been able to help people across the globe recover from eating disorders through an understanding that you have a brain based habit and it’s totally fixable.

Some of the cool things they chat about in this episode are:

- How dieting creates eating disorders

- The lower primitive brain wants to keep you alive

- The habit of eating food and the pleasure associated with it

- Understanding the desire to binge

- Looking forwards and not back

- How & why we rationalise and excuse our behaviour

- Feast or feminine. How our brain is wired for food scarcity.

- Recovery doesn’t mean erasing every problem from our lives

- ‘You drink to cope with not drinking’

- Jack Trimpey ‘Rational Recovery’

- You’re not your lower brain

- 5 components to managing urges to binge
