Usually the idea of power/powerlessness generates strong feelings, many questions and lots of discussion when I broach the subject with clients.

Super Egg, power and powerlessness is an enormous component in eating disorders, and, in my experience, one that must be addressed for recovery to be possible.

I've been reading the magazine "Runner's World" for about two decades.

Have you heard the term survivor guilt?
