Therapists, mental health workers and even dietitians often struggle with their own relationship with food and body. Gain the knowledge of an anti-diet approach to food, while challenging your own belief systems about food and your body.

In this workshop we will explore five critical tasks for healing your relationship with food and your body. By doing so, you will be better prepared to do the same transformative work with your clients and patients.

1. Witnessing the Wounds of Dieting and Diet Culture
2. Connecting Within (Hunger, Fullness, Satiety)
3. Giving the Gift of Permission (Finding pleasure and enjoyment in food)
4. Revealing the Disconnect (Healing in emotional eating)
5. Embracing Forgiveness and Repairing the Relationship With Your Body.

Tickets $60 (Early Bird = $50, available up to 2 weeks prior to event), includes networking lunch and 3 CEs.
