I am excited to announce our new publication https://t.co/zY89wnMyyB establishing feasibility and preliminary evidence of efficacy for improving interoceptive skills & eating behaviors among healthcare workers using the OptimalHRV app!
Please consider helping my graduate students in clinical psychology learn about positive embodiment and psychometrics for their measurement class with me this semester by completing our class survey here: https://t.co/C5IaT6wJZj
Thanks for your support!
Listen to our latest #HRVpodcast where we interview Dr. Janell Mensigner who utilized #OptimalHRV for a powerful research study on #disordered eating. Her insights demonstrate the huge potential of #HRV in research 👉 https://t.co/kLSdUrzQty 🎧
#HeartRateVariability ♥️
For the first day in my #eatingdisorders class, we made colleges representing what health means to us. What could have been a round table discussion turned into a memorable creative arts moment, and I am here for it!
Hats off to my students who compassionately learned about weight bias this week. There was shared consensus that weight bias should be taught in diversity courses (and that it wasn’t covered in theirs). So, diversity instructors: Include weight bias!
.@MensingerJanell says a new approach is needed; this first-of-its-kind paper shows in the severe #eatingdisorder population that anti-fat messaging from educational curricula, social media, and HCPs were the most commonly reported reasons for ED onset. https://t.co/di9FChIuuz

#ThankYouNurses It becomes crystal clear early on in medical school that the nurses are the ones who can make everyone's life easier-patients as well as doctors. Nurses are the glue that keeps everyone together. Now more than ever, we realize their power+express our gratitude. 🙏
Thx to #novanurse@pariseaultc5 & students in her “Practicum in Essentials of Nsg Practice” group for showing us what clinical learning is looking like during #COVID19. We know lots of engaging, creative work & conversations happening- all #FlatFlorence approved! #YON2020 ✌️💙

Happy #NationalPuppyDay! 🐶 Did you know, owning a pet, especially a dog, may be good for your health and lower your risk of heart disease? From getting more exercise to lowering stress and blood pressure levels.
