Overexercise and Complications

Eating Disorders and Sports

This is the beginning of a new 4 week rotation, so there is more to come on eating disorders and exercise.

Identity and Therapy

Move Along, but Not Alone...

So, EDAW has come to a close. I hope you've enjoyed the more frequent posting in honor of the TWO weeks I chose to represent EDAW (UK & US).

But remember, Every Week is Eating Disorder Awareness Week to Arielle.

To close, I'll leave you with this - A Lesson in Facts. It's an old video and it's short - but it's some good reinforcement to head into a new week.

Giving Voice to EDNOS!

The Ins & Outs of Triggers

The Way to Alive!

If you have 3 minutes, give this a look. It's a little something different. ;)

Arielle's Motivational Mash-Up # 8!

A brand new Motivational Mash-Up like the previous 7! Hope you enjoy. Have a wonderful rest of the week.

Cycles of Binging

BONUS video from Arielle. Created in part due to a viewer request. Have a great weekend, everyone. :)

Stereotypes of People with Eating Disorders

Arielle's YouTube Videos By Topic!

I fixed the tab "Arielle's YouTube Videos by Topic!" so that you can easily be directed to the YouTube page with all my videos. I think it makes it easier to search for them all by topic and by sight. It also helps with keeping things updated because I make videos on a regular basis and this means the logs of videos will always be fresh and I won't have to update them manually. Simply put, as I make videos, they will be in the log when you visit that tab (above, under my site header).

There are two lists: Arielle's Bonus videos (of which there are currently 84) and Arielle's Wednesday Warrior videos (of which there are currently 141). The weekly Wednesday videos have been going strong since April of 2009 so that means there are 2.5 years of Wednesday videos for your viewing pleasure. :) I take them very seriously and have only missed doing my Wednesday video for you twice - once in Aug. of 2009 when I was a bridesmaid in a wedding in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic and had to be out of the country for a few days, and once in 2010 when my computer accounts were hacked and I had no access to Facebook, blogs, YouTube, or email for several days.

Thanks for all your fantastic comments on the videos. I appreciate them so much. I'm just shy of 1,000 subscribers on YouTube right now and really feeling the love. :)

Body Checking & Mirrors

This week's video deals with something I think is fairly common, even among people without eating disorders. Check it out. Maybe you do it. :)

Wellness Toolbox!

Focus on Recovery vs. Sickness

Here's this week's video. If you watch ONE VIDEO of mine this year, let it be this one.

Eating Disorders & Personality Disorders

Wednesday's video was up on Twitter and Facebook, but I neglected to get it up here before today. My apologies. :)

Dealing with Abusive or Unhelpful People In Your Recovery

Last Wednesday's video I talked a lot about the people in our lives who can be unhelpful or even abusive. I have done videos in the past in regards to teens living with parents who hinder recovery due to abuse or unhelpful behavior. This new videos is more broad - I discuss significant others in general, i.e. parents, spouses, room mates, friends, siblings, etc.

Eating Disorders on Vacation

Here is last week's video. I was out of state and didn't have a chance to post it.

Dealing with Comments About Appearance

This week's video is on a topic I get asked about a lot.

Vegetarianism & Eating Disorders

This week's video is an interesting one, and rather specific in the scheme of things.

Alternative Therapy: Writing

This week's video is about alternative therapy - specifically, writing. Hope you can find it helpful in some way.
