Shifts: Eating Disorder Help

Shifts is an on-demand library of supportive voice notes for eating disorder recovery.

Recovery extends beyond appointments, and Shifts is built for those in-between moments: around meals, on rest days, in social situations, late at night, and in the quiet in-between. The app offers supportive perspectives, educational content, guided practices, and comforting voice notes that can be accessed alongside existing recovery support.

Shifts is built around the Pause • Shift • Align framework. Pause offers practices for moments when thoughts feel intense, Shift presents alternative perspectives, and Align focuses on reflection around recovery goals and personal values.

Pause features meditation, guided breathing, grounding, mindfulness, and other gentle practices.
Shift features visualizations and cognitive reframes.
Align features guided journaling and recovery lessons on reflection, values, and everyday recovery experiences.

Recordings are short, with most under five minutes, and designed for easy access throughout everyday life. Topics include food guilt, comparison, body image, post-meal anxiety, perfectionism, rest days, fear foods, recovery motivation, identity, and other thoughts and experiences that can arise during eating disorder recovery.
Content is led by therapists, registered dietitians, certified recovery coaches, and mindfulness guides. The library also includes contributions from recovery advocates with lived experience.

With Shifts, you can:

-Find recovery-focused recordings for the moments between provider sessions
-Explore guided breathing, meditation, and grounding practices
-Listen to recordings about cognitive flexibility and self-trust
-Hear from therapists, dietitians, certified recovery coaches, mindfulness guides, and recovery advocates with lived experience

Shifts brings educational content, guided practices, reflections, and supportive voice notes together in one place as a resource to use alongside professional care. Shifts is not a medical or clinical treatment and is designed to complement, not replace, care from qualified healthcare professionals.
