Overview

Ever wondered what the impact of changing your relationship with food could be? With this course I aim to change your life forever in this respect. Dieting doesn’t work; therefore, I will work with you to make changes that will improve your happiness and give you the peace of mind you have always yearned for, plus the opportunity to learn the tools needed to keep it that way.

I promise I will not weigh you and clap along with everyone else if you have lost weight - I will guide you appropriately if gaining weight is fearful for you. I will not suggest a food replacement liquid diet or detoxing on the latest fad to hit the papers. If you decide to invest in this time with me I will help you to permanently change your relationship with food and your mindset!

What can you expect to learn?

• I will enlighten you about the nature of your problem, the effects of dieting, the ways in which the body controls appetite/weight and other matters relating to nutrition.

• Understand psychotherapeutically why you behave as you do with food and other mind altering substances.

• Recognise the emotions concealed beneath food cravings, and how to deal with them as they arise.

• I will support you to change your mindset and in turn change your life and your health.

• How to reduce stress/anxiety effectively and to enhance your sense of control over food/ life in general and undo the part of the problem which has become a habit.

• Explore self-esteem, body image and assertiveness issues

• What it means to view food in its proper context and as an enjoyable way of keeping you alive and well.

• How to see food as a friend, something to enjoy and savour as nourishment for both your body and soul.

   

 Training format

This is an inclusive and supportive course which I have developed to be both educational and collaborative. Part of the course is taught from the front but there is a lot of opportunity to share and explore personal experience which is encouraged in order to get the most out of the experience.

Who is eligible for this training?

The course is available to anyone in the general public who feels they may benefit from deeper exploration of their relationship with food.
