Welcome to the blog space of the Looking Glass community, where we post our own and others’ reflections and perspectives on eating disorder issues, journeys of recovery, and other helpful tips and tools.
"Life is too short to be at war with the way you are, life is too short to question your worth, and life is certainly much too short to consciously choose to consume content that doesn’t elevate you."
"You could look at recovery as a mountain peak that you want to climb. It takes strength, courage and vulnerability to get there. But let me tell you that when you reach the top, everything will be brighter for you."
"Fight the idea that you have to look or be a certain way to wear a swimsuit, and instead go out there and enjoy the sunshine (but don’t forget to put on sunscreen!)."
In this Advice by Kaela vlog, Kaela answers questions submitted from our community about the importance of self-compassion and forgiveness on the road to eating disorder recovery.
"I get you when you feel like the day will never turn around, When you feel like you’ve lost love for yourself and it can’t be found. I know the pain of feeling like a stranger in your own body, and the search for anything to fill that yearning to be some body."
