June 27, 2019 | TU99: Food, The Body, Trauma, & Attachment With Guests Paula Scatoloni & Rachel Lewis-Marlow
What if we flipped the script and learned to see our body as a messenger that needs to be heard rather than an obstacle to be conquered when it comes to our relationship with food? When we take physiological perspective, we learn that the body has much to say not only about food but also emotional regulation and our basic human needs for attachment and defense.
Using the sensory information, attachment system and working with defenses.

ERED: Dietitian's Perspective
Therapist Interrupted
February 28, 2024: Episode 11: Annie: Eating Disorder and Dissociative Identity Awareness
In this this interview we discuss the ways both Eating Disorders and Dissociative Identities can be supportive of staying alive, finding balance, and part of a larger picture of moving towards what is needed. We discuss the difference between performative recovery and deeper healing. We explore how providers can find ways to work with and validate all of the parts/people involved in a dissociative system and to look at the important purposes each one brings.
Annie shares her personal journey of discovering her purpose, finding work she loves, and how this has intersected with her own growth and healing.
Curious About Recovery
EP29: Embodied Recovery for Eating Disorders (ERED) with Rachel Lewis-Marlow and Annie Goldsmith.
Rachel Lewis- Marlow and Annie Goldsmith join me from the Embodied Recovery Institute to talk about the importance of embodiment (for both the individual and the practitioner) in the process of recovery from disordered eating.
Embodied Recovery Institute facilitates trainings, consultation, and program development for physical and mental health professionals in EMBODIED RECOVERY for EATING DISORDERS (ERED) – a trauma-informed, relationally oriented, and neurobiologically supported approach to the treatment of eating disorders that weaves modalities and interventions based on the latest research in traumatology, interpersonal neurobiology, and child development. This embodied perspective draws on principles of the Polyvagal Theory, Interpersonal Neurobiology, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy®, Sensory Integration, and Body-Mind Centering®.
Some topics we explore in today’s episode include the Four Principles of Embodied Recovery for Eating Disorders (ERED), recognising that recovery is an additive process (and how the body physiologically responds to being in a space of defence versus safety/attachment when cultivating lasting behavioural changes), the importance of the practitioner cultivating embodiment in their own lives, using the body as a resource and understanding it’s native language, challenging traditional parameters for what recovery looks like, and cultivating safety as a primary tool for navigating the ability to nourish the body.

Sensorimotor Psychotherapy draws from somatic therapies, neuroscience, attachment theory, and cognitive approaches, as well as from the Hakomi Method.
