Abstract
Eating disorders and disordered eating are known to be difficult to treat. The Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program pioneered by Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn has shown much promise in the treatment of various ailments, including decreasing emotional eating in the general population. Using autoethnography as my methodology, this research centres on my experience in the MBSR program in which I seek to determine if MBSR will help decrease emotional and dysfunctional eating in a former bulimic. |
