www.OverComingOverEating.comJane Hirschmann and Carol Munter, Co-Author's of Overcoming Overeating and my personal favorite: When Women Stop Hating Their Bodies, host this site with up to date information on workshops and group programs offered at their centres in New York, Atlanta, Chicago, Houston and New England. These ladies have been specializing in the field of Compulsive Eating Behaviour for over 20 years. If you are near them and able to attend a group or workshop, I highly recommend it. www.edap.orgThis is the site for Eating Disorders Awareness and Prevention Inc. This non-profit organization is the sponsor of National Eating Disorder Awareness Week and their site is full of information on what's happening across the United States. There is information (although limited) on Canada's events, too. What is best about this site (from my perspective) is the information section that contains downloadable handouts on a number of important topics like Prevention of Eating Disorders, How to Help a Friend With an Eating Disorder, and Media studies. www.ace-network.comAce Network offers some wonderful and reasonably priced videos and books for sale. Two of their videos I have never seen offered anywhere else and they pertain directly to Compulsive Eating Behaviour (hosted by Carol Munter). www.something-fishy.orgThis is a very large web site, and it is possible to get lost. However, they offer a variety of information and options for support on Eating Disorders. There is a section for you to send a letter about your own experience with Compulsive Eating Behaviour, that is accessible by other Overeaters. www.bodycage.comThe body cage is run by author and recovered anorexic, Melinda Hutchings. A great resource for information pertaining to anorexia and bulimia. www.dyenamicmovement.comA great resource for counsellors and clients alike, dynamic movement offers products and services to help people recover from an eating disorder in a unique way that utilizes body, mind, and spirit. Dr. Irene's Abuse PageDr. Irene has compiled a fascinating website with tons of information about abuse. She has lots of original articles about the topic and has a great understanding and empathy about the abusive cycle and how abusive relationships work. A bonus is the mascot, an animated cat named Trubble who follows readers from topic to topic. Eating Disorders Recovery is Possible!This personal site is run by Kim, a courageous woman who has overcome an eating disorder and shares her experiences and insights with others. The National Centre for Eating DisordersRun out of Surrey England, The National Centre For Eating Disorders, established in 1984, is an independent organisation set up to provide solutions for all eating problems, compulsive or "binge" eating, failed or "yo-yo" dieting, bulimia and anorexia and can help you locate counselling services in your area. The Alliance for Eating Disorder AwarenessThe Alliance for Eating Disorders Awareness seeks to establish easily accessible programs across the nation that allow children and young adults the opportunity to learn about eating disorders and the positive effects of a healthy body image. Furthermore, our aim is to disseminate educational information to parents and caregivers about the warning signs, dangers, and consequences of anorexia, bulimia, and other related disorders. ANREDANRED, Anorexia Nervosa and Related Eating Disorders is a nonprofit organization that provides information about anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, and other less-well-known food and weight disorders. Their material includes self-help tips and information about recovery and prevention. EDCThe EDC, Eating Disorders Coalition, aims to advance the recognition of eating disorders as a public health priority. If you're interested in lobbying for eating disorder treatment and information, check them out. Supporting EDC is a great way to effect change. EDAThe EDA, Eating Disorders Association, is a great resource for those of you in the UK who would like more information about treatment available in your area. The Spiritual Education and Guidance of Jean ChristianJean Christian is a conscious channel committed to the highest purpose and source. To further awareness and nurture consciousness of the true nature that is the center of all beings, is the one and only intention of her work. |
