Heal your relationship with your body and with food. This is NOT a diet-it's a lifestyle. The United States is facing a healthcare crisis as the current system fails to address the epidemic of chronic disease crippling its citizens and its economy. Despite the fact that over $2.5 trillion is spent every year on healthcare, our nation is plagued with preventable epidemics like diabetes from which o
ne-third of all children today will eventually suffer. Over 65% of Americans are overweight, and it is estimated that by 2020, half of all Americans will have a chronic disease. If over 80% of preventable disease risk factors are influenced by behaviors like smoking, chronic stress, poor diet or lack of exercise, why are we so unsuccessful at changing these behaviors? While traditional medical professionals play specific roles in contributing to an individual’s overall wellness, the current model fails to bring about lasting healthy lifestyle changes. Physicians, nurses, dietitians and other healthcare professionals serve crucial functions but may not have the time or intent to discuss other factors that prevent clients from carrying out their well-intentioned recommendations. We are in a health care crisis. Our food and lifestyle has been so tampered with by science and society that we just don't know what to eat anymore, and are tired, frustrated, and humiliated that we can't gain more dominion over our own health. Come learn how you can enjoy healthful living, love and devour nourishing food, create the time and space you require for self care, and finally make peace with your appetite and your body, and NEVER go on a diet again!
