Hi! I am Chelvi. I am a Certified Life Coach and a Mindful Eating and Body Acceptance Expert and the creator of the six-session 'Stop Your Binge Eating’ coaching programme that has helped many people address the root cause of their binge eating and low body confidence.
The Stop Your Binge Eating coaching programme was born out of my own struggles with emotional and binge eating and the freedom I have come to enjoy as a result of travelling this healing journey. Please read: ‘How Chelvi healed from Emotional Eating’. My desire is to help you travel the path to Food Freedom and Body Confidence and enjoy the best life you can.
My binge eating coaching philosophy is very simple- it is about you and what you want to accomplish. You know you want more from life and you want to break free from emotional and binge eating and make peace with food and body, and I can help you. Binge eating, also known as emotional eating or stress eating is often symptomatic of emotional stagnation, as we use food to numb difficult feelings and consequently are not living our life to our fullest potential. If this is you, I can help you get from where you are now to where you want to be, living your best life by helping you resolve the underlying reasons why you emotionally eat.
Mindful Eating Coaching on-line, UK wide or in person in the Kent area.
The people I have worked with so far, have described me as kind, compassionate, insightful, intuitive and as having a ‘light touch with a firm grip’ (!) on the issues at hand and unconditionally supportive, inspiring and a ‘master at seeing learning opportunities in any obstacles that come your way’.
If you are in my local area of Ashford in Kent, you can meet for face to face coaching but the majority of my coaching is conducted on-line mainly via Skype, Zoom and I have had the pleasure of working with men and women of all ages from all over the UK, especially in London and Hertfordshire.
Testimonials
'Chelvi's program has been a real eye opener and bought many positive changes to my life.....Rather than feeling like food is controlling my life I feel more relaxed and in control. Because I now know that food won't solve my emotional problems, food is much more of a pleasure. I am eating more healthily, sensibly and looking into solving my emotional problems in a more positive way.'
- Roland Levy

‘I did six Skype sessions with Chelvi in early 2019 and I cannot recommend her highly enough. The programme she has put together is first-rate, but she was able to adapt it skilfully and effortlessly if she saw I was having difficulties in a particular area or didn’t need quite as much work in another.
Chelvi was so supportive, encouraging and understanding, and the programme was just the right mix of theory and practical work. I didn’t feel overwhelmed or incapable at any point, which have always been a major stumbling blocks for me in the past.
I feel I have made a really good start on understanding and addressing the reasons behind my emotional eating, something I have been struggling with and suffering because of for decades. I have a lot more work to do – being a mindful eater is a lifelong practice, I understand now – but, thanks to Chelvi, I now feel able to face my overeating and emotional challenges myself with quiet confidence.’

‘Like many women I have had lifelong dissatisfaction with my weight and body shape, which has resulted in a continual merry-go-round of fad diets followed by weight loss and gain. I now understand the futility of repeating this 40 year pattern of behaviour but, I still want to weigh less and be healthier so I am still searching for a solution.
I attended the workshop on Emotional eating as I wanted to solve the deeper issue of why I don't have a normal relationship with food and I knew Chelvi's approach, with the combination of her background in social work, coaching, meditation and mindfulness practices and personal experience would offer a deep and unique understanding of the causes of emotional eating.
During the workshop, in the safe hands of Chelvi, I was able to access the emotions and feelings that trigger the need to eat and how this insight and awareness, will help in getting to the root of emotional eating rather than focusing on the outward solutions. I would recommend this workshop to anyone who really wants to resolve and heal from their emotional eating in a loving and safe space.’

‘What a pleasure it was meet Chelvi, talking about Emotional Eating and why I may reach food can be daunting but Chelvi totally put me at ease and gave me so many helpful strategies to become more aware of my emotions and thoughts which can lead to this habit. Something which can be over looked when joining other slimming clubs. With Chelvi I learnt so much and now look at emotional eating with kinder eyes and Chelvi’s support and coaching has been invaluable in this journey’.
