How do I transform my eating
Find peace with food
By-
- Understanding your thinking and beliefs around food and eating, the ‘good/bad’ thinking, the judgement (“I shouldn’t be eating that”).
- Understanding your feelings around food, in order to resolve any emotional eating patterns, or just feel better about eating (Do you eat when you are stressed or bored or for some other reason?).
- Understanding your natural appetite and how this is affected by your food environment (What foods suit you better? How often do you need to eat?).
- Understanding your body’s history and using this knowledge to improve your health.
- Recognising the relationship between lifestyle choices, body image and self esteem (How does the way you feel about your body affect your ability to live a healthy lifestyle?).
Discussing these issues with an emotionally sensitive, psychologically focused Dietitian will assist you in becoming the healthiest you possible.
Support for Eating Disorders
If you are ready to recover from an Eating Disorder and want to work with someone who would love to join your team, then an Experienced Dietitian can help.
I practice in client-focussed way, working with you, your GP and counselor or psychologist. Working with a Dietitian who specialises in Eating Disorders allows you to have a safe place to discuss your food issues whilst your counselling sessions can be used to deal with the core issues underlying the Eating Disorder. The best results for Eating Disorders are achieved with a team on your side.
Support For Women
Eating Patterns can express different emotions, what does yours indicate for you?
- Comfort, Peace
- Fear, Anxiety
- Panic, Obsession
- Terror, Shame
Women in particular often have unspoken and unresolved issues with weight, eating and body shape that can consume them daily. The ones who succeed in changing their relationship to food and their body, work with a practitioner who not only understands these issues, but can provide tools and strategies to transform them, so they no longer consume their lives. It can seem as women that our bodies are constantly changing, and it becomes exhausting trying to work out what is right for now. Wouldn’t it be lovely if we could be the healthiest possible, and love our body without the ongoing exhaustion.
Support for Families
Children
Children are bombarded by confusing messages about food choices and their bodies, but teaching our children to be healthy without developing an unhealthy obsession with food or their bodies is probably the most important gift we can give them in today’s society. Depending on the age of the child support can be with the child and parents or just the parents.
Parents
who address their own issues around food and their body are in a better position to help their children develop into confident, healthy adults.
Adults
At various times during our life we need extra support to manage our health and the demands of everyday living, whether we are raising a young family, dealing with adolescents or looking to be as healthy as possible in retirement. It doesn’t matter where you are in life, small changes with your eating can make a huge difference to your energy and health.
Support for Men
Trying to prioritise health when there are so many demands from work and family, can be very challenging. Often simple, yet effective changes, can be made to improve health with the guidance of an experienced Dietitian. Some men have the emotional eating issues that affect women, but more often they want simple, straightforward advice so they can pay more attention to what’s important for them.
