Led By Eating Disorder Specialist Megan Quinn, LMHC 

Ages 30+ / All Genders Welcome

This is an intuitive eating support group to help connect individuals in their community with others who are also looking to heal their relationship with food and body. 

Whether you are just beginning to learn about intuitive eating or have been practicing for years, this group is designed to meet everyone where they are in their own journey. With diet culture being rampant throughout our society, the road to rejecting it can often feel like a lonely one. In this group, you will be provided with a safe space to gather and gain support from like-minded individuals to navigate the ups and downs of becoming an intuitive eater. Having a group of people, who understand that the journey to food freedom is about embracing the successes and down falls, creates an empowering environment for change. 

We were all born with the innate ability to be an Intuitive Eater. Diet culture such as societal expectations, body comparison, negative body image comments, and weight loss disconnects us from how we feel around food and challenges our body cues.

Intuitive Eating is a PROCESS. It does not happen overnight. It is a journey that is different for everyone, but if you stick to the process with compassion and kindness for yourself, it is POSSIBLE to heal your relationship with food and get back to living a fulfilling life without the obsession and guilt surrounding your food choices.

THIS GROUP IS FOR PEOPLE WHO:

  • Are interested in Intuitive Eating (maybe you’ve read the book?) but looking for more support.
  • Learn and connect with the experiences of others who are integrating the principles of intuitive eating in their lives.
  • Better understand the principles of intuitive eating and how to integrate them into your own life.
  • Love to learn and grow as a person!

WHAT IS INTUITIVE EATING? (from the Intuitive Eating Book)

Intuitive Eating is a personal process of trusting your inner body wisdom to make choices around food that honor your physical well-being as well as your emotional health! To discover which foods feel good in your body, without judgment and without influence from diet culture.
Intuitive Eating is not a diet or food plan. Period. There is no pass or fail, no “blowing it,” rather it is a journey of self-discovery and connection to the needs of your mind and body.  It is an inner journey of discovery that puts you front and center; you are the expert of your own body.
