The 5 modules in milestone 1 are focused reframing stressful and obsessive thoughts about food and your body. We focus on understanding and shifting the unhelpful thoughts so food is no longer on your mind ALL THE TIME and you can enjoy experiences when food is present. These unhelpful thoughts are often a main trigger for out-of-control or stressful food experiences.
In this first module, we explore where our thoughts and fears about food and body may have come from. How much are really ours and how much is supportive for us?
In this module we explore why we can keep turning back to dieting even when we know it hasn't been working and we want to move away. Start to recognise the patterns so you can make choices that feel more supportive for you.
In this module, explore what the evidence behind some of the metrics and approaches are. Using this knowledge you can make more supportive choices for yourself.
We can't hate ourselves into loving ourselves.
In this module we work on improving our body image, regardless of body or weight changes. Improving our body image allows us to care for ourselves and improve our physical and mental health.
In this module we learn how to eat without fear so we can feel at peace with food and enjoy social events that involve food without overthinking it.
In milestone 2 we work on improving your mind-body connection using our interoception. Interoception is our sense of what is happening inside our body and through this sense our body communicates it's appetite needs, self care needs and all of our emotional needs. There are so many benefits to improving our interoception.
In this module we learn about the sense our body uses to communicate it's needs and how we can feel more connected with what we need. This will help us stop feeling in a fight with our body.
We will dive deep into what hunger actually is, how we feel hunger. the different types of hunger. You will learn when is the best time to actually eat when you feel hungry.
Learn the different ways we can feel full and what can feel best for you. Then explore the difference between fullness and true satisfaction and how feeling satisfied can stop out-of-control and stressful eating.
We explore eating for difficult emotion. Rather than try to fight it, we understand , what purpose it serves, how to separate emotional cues from hunger cues and build some new emotional coping tools to try.
Milestone 3 is about tying together our body awareness with outside food and health messages so we can honour our health without feeling overwhelmed and stressed by all the things we "should" be doing.
In module 10 we consider how we can be aware of how food feels in our body to increase enjoyment for food and body connection.
Movement has so many health benefits. But it can also be a source of stress or keep us trapped in diet mentality. In module 11 we explore how we can incorporate movement for body connection and joy especially if exercise has previously been used as a diet tool.
In this final module we explore how we can honour our own individual needs for physical health, mental health and overall wellbeing while living in a world that promotes mixed and often harmful food and body information.

The first step to healthy eating is a healthy relationship with food. We focus on improving your connection with your body, understanding emotional drives toward food and unpacking the overwhelming food and body thoughts.
I can't say what your body will do, in fact no one can. Dieting usually results in weight gain and, regardless of weight, a poorer body image.
Intuitive Eating is shown to have many physical and mental health benefits as well as an improved quality of life!
After years of dieting you may feel disconnected from your body. For the majority of people, once you let go of the diet mentality, you are able to start reconnecting with your body to feel and trust your eating and emotional cues.
For some people, past trauma or emotional distress may make tuning into your body feel unsafe. If this is the case, you may be best supported with 1-to-1 support.
Feel free to get in touch via email if you are wondering whether this support sounds like a good fit for you.
Most clients I work with have tried many different forms of diets, meal plans or healthy eating advice.
In my experience, these don't work because they are not teaching you how to eat.
In Finding Your Food Freedom, I don't tell you what or when to eat, but rather teach you how to connect back into your body so you can satisfy your hunger, honour your fullness, cope with emotion, naturally stop binge eating and eat in a way that is enjoyable and feels good.
There are hundreds of research studies directly on this approach showing amazing results. Drop me an email if you would like the list of available research!
Although a meal plan telling you when and what to eat sounds tempting, in my experience it is only a short term bandaid solution.
The ultimate goal is for you to have full autonomy over your eating but in a way that feels good.
To do this you will learn how to connect back with your body's natural hunger and fullness cues, to find satisfaction and cope with your emotions in more supportive ways so you won't ever feel you need someone else to tell you what to eat again.
