In the past dieting was, for the most part, about villainizing just a particular macronutrient, like carbs or fat, or villainizing calories in general. These days, you can find a reason on the internet to villainize literally any food out there.   The truth is, you can find research to support just about any claim out there. And while I think evidenced based protocols are highly important, we have to remember that doesn’t replace your unique, individual needs. Instead of taking the opinions of others and the rules and protocols and the diets around food, intuitive eating asks that you put all foods on an even playing field.   Cookies and burgers and kale and blueberries are all emotionally equivalent. By making them have no moral value higher than the other, you can tune in to how your body feels when you eat foods. Releasing the emotions around the food, allows you to tune in to your mind body knowledge on your hunger and fullness levels, your food preferences and cravings and discover what is both satisfying and feels good in your body to eat.   Listen to today’s episode to learn more about what an all foods fit mentality means, how to explore the why of your fear around this and how to navigate health conditions that require elimination of certain foods with intuitive eating.   This episode is brought to you by my new online course, Permission Stage Playbook.   You know in order to embrace intuitive eating, you’re gonna have to end the fight between you and your body, make peace with food and give yourself unconditional permission to eat.   But that’s also what makes this work incredibly challenging, overwhelming and frustrating! That’s why my team and I have created our first ever online course, Permission Stage Playbook.   Permission Stage Playbook is a proven step-by-step guide for how to move past the confusion and overwhelm to become an intuitive eater.   Permission Stage Playbook is the ONLY program of its kind that:   Teach you, step by step, how to give yourself permission to eat and not only make peace with food, but also make peace with your body in order to let it be. Re-align you with your own values and beliefs about health and also who you want to be and how you want to live your life. Help you learn to trust your body and trust yourself to feed yourself, re-learning what it means to “listen to your body”. Help you discover what balance with food looks like and how to live life in the gray area, one where you can embrace an “all foods fit” mentality. Online course created to help you truly understand intuitive eating, especially for those who struggle with being a little too obsessed with all things health and wellness.   The cart is officially open (but closes tonight!) and we would love to have you join our VIP experience, where you will receive the online course material AND group coaching calls with me, a private Facebook support group, support from the entire team at my practice AND (if it could get better than that…) bonus content on exercise and nutrition in the final week of the course.   The cart closes TONIGHT AT MIDNIGHT and we are only taking a limited number of students inside the VIP experience of Permission Stage Playbook.
