As we celebrate Independence Day and reflect on the many freedoms we're blessed to enjoy, we can't help but think about another kind of freedom, the freedom from an eating disorder. Many years ago, our founder wrote this "Declaration of Independence from My Eating Disorder" as she chose to surrender the lies of the eating disorder and embrace the hope of recovery (#LifeWithoutEd). Today, she is still celebrating that freedom and has the privilege of walking alongside others as they declare their own freedom at Charis House. Recovery is possible. Freedom is possible. And we pray this encourages you or someone you love today. Happy Independence Day!
