In the final (!) episode of Season 2, Dr. Lisa Anderson of the University of Minnesota joins Picture Blurrfect to share her research exploring the link between "feeling fat," interoceptive awareness, and feelings such as guilt, depression, and disgust. As a fairly new area of study, Dr. Anderson and Naomi discuss how these results could inform future research and, more importantly, potential treatment/therapy options for patients with eating disorders.

Picture Blurrfect will resume in January 2023! Stay tuned!
