The holidays can bring pressure—to eat a certain way, feel a certain way, or show up perfectly. If you’re in eating disorder recovery, that pressure can feel even heavier.

This season, we’re inviting you to choose compassion over perfection. Recovery is not about getting it “right.” It’s about meeting yourself with care—especially when things feel hard.

💙 As you swipe, you’ll find gentle reminders to help support your recovery during the holidays

Navigating holiday meals can feel overwhelming when you’re in eating disorder recovery. The pressure, the comments, the change in routine—it’s a lot. If this season brings anxiety, you’re not alone. Gentle planning and support can help make these moments more manageable.

💙 A few grounding strategies for holiday meals:

🍽️ Follow your meal plan or structure—your body still needs consistent nourishment, even on holidays.
💬 Prepare a support script for unwanted comments (ex: “I’m focusing on staying present today.”)
🧍‍♀️ Choose where you sit intentionally—near a supportive person, away from triggering conversations.
🌬️ Use grounding tools before and after (breathing, stepping outside, centering with a trusted person).
🔁 Remember: You don’t need to “make up” for holiday meals. Ever.

Your recovery is more important than holiday expectations. One meal does not define your journey.

❄️ Winter Wellness & Eating Disorder Recovery

Cold weather can heighten more than the temperature—it can impact our mood, routines, and even our relationship with food and body.

If this season feels challenging, you’re not alone. Winter often brings
fewer daylight hours, more time indoors, and increased pressure around holiday meals and comfort foods. These shifts can affect recovery, but gentle awareness and support can make a difference.

💙 Here are compassionate winter coping strategies for eating disorder recovery:
🌤️ Seek natural light early in the day to support energy and regulate appetite cues.
🧣 Warmth matters—inside and out. Nourishing meals, heated drinks, weighted blankets, socks on.
🔁 Keep rhythm over “right.” Consistent meals and snacks—even when hunger cues are muted—is part of healing.
🚶‍♀️ Choose movement for connection, not compensation. Gentle stretching, a walk in the sun, or calm breathing.

Practice connection when isolation grows. Reach out to your support system—or your treatment team—if the cold brings heaviness.

Recovery does not freeze with the season. Steady care, structure, and connection can build warmth, even in the coldest months.

As we head into the season of gratitude…

At Blue Ridge Eating Disorder Care Center, we recognize that Thanksgiving can bring a wide range of emotions. While the world is talking about food and festivities, we know that for many, this time of year can feel overwhelming.

This week, we’re holding space for:
🤍 Those navigating recovery
🤍 Families supporting a loved one
🤍 Clinicians dedicating their care to this work
🤍 And anyone for whom these holidays feel heavy

Gratitude doesn’t have to be loud or picture-perfect. It can simply be…
✨ Taking a moment to breathe
✨ Noticing a small win
✨ Asking for help when you need it
✨ Choosing gentleness over pressure

From our entire team at Blue Ridge, we are grateful for the resilience of our clients, the trust of families, and the commitment of our community. Thank you for walking this journey with us.

If you or someone you know needs support, we are here—before, during, and after the holidays. 💙

Wishing peace, safety, and warmth to all this week.
You are not alone.

🎃 Halloween can be a fun and festive time—but for those struggling with an eating disorder, it can also bring up anxiety around costumes, body image, and food.

Let’s create a culture of compassion this season. Be mindful of comments about bodies or food choices and remember you never know what someone is going through. 💜



👻 If Halloween feels overwhelming, you’re not alone.

Here are a few ways to care for yourself this week:
