Get to Know Intuitive Eating for Skeptics

What is Intuitive Eating?

Intuitive Eating is a framework of ten principles that can help you improve your relationship with food and your body

Intuitive Eating rejects diet culture and helps you relearn how to listen to and trust internal cues of hunger, fullness, and satisfaction rather than following external rules. 

Is Intuitive Eating Right For You?

Intuitive Eating could help you improve your relationship with food and your body if you:

• Have a history of frequent dieting

• Are tired of counting or tracking every bite or movement

• Have a difficult relationship with food

• Binge eat

• Have a long list of "good" and "bad" foods

• Describe yourself as an emotional eater

• Struggle with body image

• Restrict food

• Equate health with the size of your body

Are You Still Not Sure If Intuitive Eating Is For You?

It is normal to have resistance to this new approach to fooD and health

Perhaps you are thinking Intuitive Eating can't work for me because,

• If I let myself eat cookies whenever I want, I will never stop.

• All the foods I like are bad for me.

• I don't even know what to eat if I am not following a diet plan.

• My doctor says I need to lose weight for my health.

• _____ (fill in the blank diet) worked for me in the past, I just need to get serious about it again.

• I am an emotional eater. After a stressful day, I don't stop eating chips until I hit the bottom of the bag.

That is the skeptic speaking! 

Intuitive Eating is not giving up. It is not about eating all the things all the time.

Intuitive Eating helps you learn how to support your physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing by tuning into your body’s own needs and wisdom.

Will You Lose Weight With Intuitive Eating?

What’s Included in Intuitive Eating for Skeptics?

As a former Intuitive Eating skeptic turned Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor, I will walk you through each of the 10 principles of Intuitive Eating with a weekly video lesson (also available as an audio track to listen on-the-go) and a variety of supporting activities, questionnaires, and reflection exercises to help you practice the work.

New modules are released weekly and you have access to the full course for 6 months from the date the last module is released. This gives the the flexibility to work at your own pace or revisit material as needed. Everything is individual so there are no group calls to work around or live sessions to attend.

A class for skeptics wouldn't be complete without the ability to ask questions and share thoughts. The program encourages you to directly message me at anytime with things big, small, hard, or silly. I will personally respond within a day or two.

“Set yourself free from constant dieting! Amber's course was a game changer for me and how I think about my body and view my eating habits. I have significantly reduced my overeating and I have found joy in eating foods I actually like.

Intuitive Eating helped me switch my focus to how I feel instead of how I look or how much I weigh. I am also learning to find joy in exercise, rather than looking at it as a chore or an aid in weight loss.

Amber does a great job and teaching the Intuitive Eating process while providing research and support along the way. Everything was easy to understand, it makes sense, and I feel as though I can continue to practice what I've learned! Thank you Amber!”
