Intuitive Eating
Intuitive Eating is an evidence-based eating framework focused on attunement for physical function signals and recognizing emotional responses that arise from within your body while learning how to properly nourish oneself without obsession or neglect for bio-individual and psychological needs to be met. Intuitive eating aims to remove the obstacles of the “toxic diet culture mentality” that usually comes from rigid rules, negative thoughts & emotional attachments, compulsive or restrictive behaviors, and false beliefs.
The process of Intuitive Eating is a practice that honors both physical and mental health. Intuitive Eating is aligned with health at every size because the long-term effects of dieting methods for intentional weight loss is a failed paradigm, which creates additional health issues and perpetuates weight stigma, weight cycling, and eating disorders. All bodies deserve dignity, respect, and a sustainable lifestyle for whole wellness.
