We help you uncover, identify, and target metabolic factors that may be contributing to your weight, support you as an entire person with re-balancing your health as the main goal, and guide you on a sustainable process so you never have to diet again.
You and your nutritionist will address food and exercise, along with the psychological factors that may be barriers for many to effectively lose weight and keep it off. Unlike many fad diets, this program encourages positive eating behaviors and is not a quick fix. We help to put you firmly on the path to ending dieting and weight struggles.
We help you shift your focus from “being” and “looking” good, to feeling good. This process is about changing from the inside out, using intrinsic motivation to guide your decisions. When we’re in touch with what we truly need and want, we can make choices that feel good in the moment — and long after. The truth is: It’s feeling good that is the reward our brains seek. And dieting doesn’t actually make us feel good. If anything, it makes us feel worse. Mindfulness is the bridge to noticing what makes you really feel good and then doing it regularly.
We’ve seen mindful habits change the lives of our clients. They gain energy. They stop emotional eating and develop a better relationship with food, and they turn their hunger into happiness. Mindful eating can be a rewarding and positive process.
We teach our clients that mindful eating isn’t a strategy of only meal planning. It’s lifestyle factors like learning to recognize hunger hijackers.
One of the most prominent hunger hijackers our clients face is stress. Study after study shows that when you put people in stressful situations, they have a much harder time making mindful choices about food. Daily our clients face real stressors of life, such as tough divorces, unexpected bills, irritating relatives, and frustrating bosses. We help our clients learn how to apply techniques that get them back in their body and their rational thinking mind back online so they can make a choice rather than feeling overwhelmed by food choices and guilt.
We work with you over time to build your ideal personalized lifelong eating style while incorporating your food preferences and lifestyle challenges to ensure it is sustainable, realistic and helps you to feel your best, inside and out!
