Are you always on diet? Forever on the lookout for the latest diet fad?

  • Does your weight yoyo up and down?
  • Do you struggle to maintain a healthy weight?
  • Is weight the constant radio station playing on your mind?
  • Do you feel guilty when you eat “forbidden foods”?
  • Have you put your life and your happiness on hold until you weigh a certain number?

Myth – Less calories in/more calories burned = Weight Loss

If the old way of thinking that it is simply less calories in, more calories burned equals weight loss worked, then in theory no one would have a weight problem.  Obviously this is not correct then.

Myth - The latest Keto/Paleo/Alkaline/Blood Type diet gets results fast

If each new diet that comes out promising brilliant results worked, then no-one would be overweight. Obviously, there is no diet that has been discovered then that is able to work that miracle.

Fact – Women try way too many diets

By the time a woman is 45, she will have tried 61 diets.

According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS), over 2.3 million Australians aged 15 years and over were on a diet in 2011-12.  How sad.   How many of those people really needed to be on diet? How many were successful in reaching their goal? And maintained that goal weight 6 months or 1 year down the line?

Fact – Our thinking about nutrition, diet, weight and body image is destructive and needs an overhaul

It is time for a radical shake up in our thinking.  Science, our culture and the media have failed us in the weightloss department.  For far too long moral judgment and shaming about excess weight, the perfect body and the perfect way to eat has led to an epidemic of distorted thinking and strategies to achieve the illusory goal of perfection.

We are constantly bombarded by experts claiming to have the latest strategies and knowledge to fight off the kilos permanently, and photographs of celebrities with the perfect bodies seemingly happy.  But the truth is, obesity rates are at an all time high and they are continuing to rise.

For far too long moral judgment and shaming about excess weight …  has led to an epidemic of distorted thinking

Brainwashed into thinking that counting calories, fat is bad, intense exercise and drinking shakes instead of eating food is the answer is only making us fatter and more miserable.  It is time to take a step in the opposite direction.  The direction of learning to achieve and maintain a healthy sustainable weight and overcome eating and body challenges in a powerful and dynamic way.

Mind Body Eating Psychology – A new approach to eating disorders where science meets body mind eating psychology

Mind body eating psychology, is a blend of psychology with the science of mind body nutrition.  It is an empowering, and transformational approach to weight concerns, binge eating, emotional eating, overeating, challenges with body image, body dysmorphia as well as numerous nutrition related health concerns like digestion, mood, fatigue, and immunity.

In the context of this approach, food and body concerns or symptoms are viewed as messages from the body, that require exploration and unravelling to find healing.  Through the use of various counselling, coaching, body centred practices and other subconscious modalities, clients are given the opportunity to grow, transform and ultimately find the opportunity to reach their highest goals.

Mind Body Eating Psychology considers the psychophysiology of digestion, calorie burning and the metabolism of any meal.  It looks beyond the physical processes that occur by weaving into that the psychological elements.  Understanding that it is more than the just the food that is eaten at a meal, it is also the eater that is doing the eating at that meal in that moment.  When attention is given to the emotional and psychological influences on the physical processes of digestion, calorie burning, metabolism and elimination, then a greater understanding unfolds and ultimately wellness is achieved.
