Hands Holding BlueberriesIntuitive eating is an approach that teaches you how to create a healthy relationship with your food, mind, and body–where you ultimately become the expert of your own body.   You learn how to distinguish between physical and emotional eating, and gain a sense of body wisdom.   It’s also a process of making peace with food—so that you no longer have constant “food worry” thoughts. It’s knowing that your health and your worth as a person does not change because you ate a so-called “bad” or “fattening” food. 

The class will cover 10 principles of intuitive eating, from the book,  Intuitive Eating by Evelyn Tribole, MS, RD and Elyse Resch, MS, RD, FADA.

Evelyn Tribole is an award-winning dietitian with a counseling practice in Newport Beach, California. She was the nutrition expert for Good Morning America and qualified for the 1984 Olympic trials in the women’s marathon.
