Therapy For Every Body

Happy 🦃Day Eve everyone! The #holidays can get hectic and I think it’s always a good idea to plan for a little #selfcare in advance. Comment and let me know what you plan on doing tomorrow to get a little #metime in. 🧘🏽‍♂️🛏📖🛀🏊🏽‍♀️🏃‍♀️

The first thing I usually do with clients is to get them to eat regularly. It’s the #restriction that causes the #bingeing. Everyone who has been on chronic #diets for years, has a #foodpolice voice in their heads. You must eat those #forbiddenfoods so they lose their allure and you can start responding to food in a more neutral way. Eventually, you body will dictate what it wants when it’s #hungry and you will be able to stop when you are full.

Intuitive Eating

Excellent article on Intuitive Eating by Aaron Flores...

I’m at home on this #nye2018 just relaxing. As an #empath and sometimes #introvert, parties and going out can be exhausting for me. Anyway, when I thought about how wanted to roll into the new year, I thought that I would like to do that laughing and feeling happy. So I was looking through funny #therapistcartoons. This on made me #LOL. #therapistlife

We often talk to ourselves in a way that we would NEVER DREAM of speaking to others. I think it's so important to practice #selfcompassion and be #mindful of how we are addressing ourselves.

I really like #JessicaOrtner and EFT for working with emotional Eating. So I thought I'd share this new webinar that is happening at your choice of three different times today.

I want everyone to know that it is possible to feel empowered about food, your body, and your ability to lose weight!

But we first have to get rid of the idea that diets are the answer. Diets completely ignore the two main reasons so many of us struggle to lose weight in the first place. I'm holding a free webinar to explain more and I hope you'll join me --> http://bit.ly/2vAYpaW

A Vegan Dietitian Reviews “What the Health”

A lot of my clients have asked me what I think of "What The Health." I like this vegan dietitian's view.
