Changing eating habits—whether for eating disorder recovery, intuitive eating, or improving nutrition—is a gradual process that takes time, patience, and self-compassion. You won’t wake up one day with a completely different mindset, and that’s okay.

Change isn’t all-or-nothing.
It's a journey — and people move through different stages at their own pace.

Whether you're a teen in recovery, a parent supporting a loved one, or a therapist helping someone find their footing, the Stages of Change model offers a roadmap for empathy and support.
