Description

Healing body image is important work for our clients. As they engage in that healing, we also need to provide tools to help heal their relationship with food. The influence of diet culture and fatphobia leads to food rules that dominate our client’s eating for years.  Intuitive eating is a path that allows clients to end the war with food and re-learn how to tune into their bodies and develop a more peaceful relationship with food and body.  You’ll learn how the 10 principles of intuitive eating help clients feel safer in their bodies and around food.
