You know diets don’t work. But did you know that diets can actually be dangerous?
Studies have shown that individuals with repeated fluctuations in weight are at a significantly higher risk of diabetes and other weight related illnesses (Mann et al. 2007). If diets don’t work then what is the key to obtaining and maintaining a beautiful, capable and healthy body?
In a word… Mindfulness.
In my 8 week mindfulness based weight management program I will show you how to fall back in love with food and with your body. Together we will heal your relationship with food, learn how to properly listen and respond to what your body needs and understand just what happens in the body when we consume nutrients.
Unlike diets, which function on a deprivation-based model, mindfulness operates on an abundance-based model. A model of loving kindness. Accepting ourselves just as we are, love handles, thighs and all; in a gentle, nonjudgmental, eyes wide open sort of way.
Because…
only when we begin to accept things just as they are, can we change anything (Carl Rogers).
In order to effect real and lasting change in your diet, body and therefore life is to change how you think, feel, & interact with food.
Not everyone who struggles with food is overweight.
Whether you are overweight, underweight, or a healthy weight, we all can benefit from a better relationship with our food.
Do any of the following apply to you?
Do you ever eat for any reason other then being hungry? (Sad, happy, bored etc..)
Do you ever eat too much and feel terrible afterwards?
Have you ever noticed that food seems to lose its richness or flavor after the 1st few bites?
Have you ever finished a meal and wondered where all your food went?
Have you ever eaten a meal only to find a little while later that you can’t recall what you ate?
Do you perceive some foods as good/bad or better/worse than others?
Do you ever indulge & then chastise yourself for giving in or being weak?
Do you ever obsess or stress about what you can or can’t eat?
Do you avoid situations where you might not have control over what food is available to you?
Fundamentally the practice of mindful eating involves
Learning how to really love your food.
Devouring every delicious mouthful fully aware of the experience by engaging all of your senses to notice the colors, smells, sounds, textures, and flavors of your food.
Learning how to actively listen to your body so you can notice the effects food has on your feelings and figure.
Learn how to identify and satisfy what it is you are really hungry for. (Hint: it isn’t always food)
learning how to actively listen and trust the bodies physical hunger cues and respecting and abiding by the bodies innate wisdom
learning to cope with guilt and anxiety about food
