Description

In this episode, I go back to some more neuroscience about two different brain regions, one of which controls our 'rational' selves and the other our 'emotional' reactions (the pre-frontal cortex and limbic system).  I then explain the tug of war that is often at play between these brain parts in eating disorder recovery and why understanding this matters.
