Publisher's summary

Do you use food to comfort yourself during stressful times? The Intuitive Eating Workbook offers a comprehensive, evidence-based program to help you develop a healthy relationship with food, pay attention to cues of hunger and satisfaction, and cultivate a profound connection with your mind and body.

Have you tried fad diet after fad diet, only to gain weight back? Maybe you've tried the protein diet, only to move on to vegetables only? Raw almonds and coconut water every 45 minutes instead of big meals? Or perhaps you've tried counting calories, but the numbers on the scale still don't add up. If you are ready to throw in your hat and give up on dieting for good, take heart. You can enjoy food again - you just need to pay attention to your body's natural hunger cues. Based on the authors' best-selling book, Intuitive Eating, this workbook can show you how.

The Intuitive Eating Workbook offers a new way of looking at food and mealtime by showing you how to recognize your body's natural hunger signals. Structured around the 10 principles of intuitive eating, the mindful approach in this workbook encourages you to abandon unhealthy weight control behaviors, develop positive body image, and - most importantly - stop feeling distressed around food!

You were born with all the wisdom you need for eating intuitively. This book will help you reconnect with that wisdom and ultimately change your life - one meal at a time.

Critic reviews

"This is not just another book about dieting, but rather a simple ten-step approach to improve the relationship between food and one’s mind, body, and soul! The book promotes the principles that will maximize psychological and physical health to improve quantity and quality of life - something that I have promoted and written about for the past thirty-five years. This work should prove to be extremely helpful to many patients, including my own, and to the general public. I highly recommend it!"

The audible is a shell of the workbook

I was excited to listen and practice intuitive eating but to my surprise there is no way to download to material to do the exercises and if there is then it is not easy to find. Without the exercises the book is not very helpful. I'd recommend buying it as a hard copy instead of as an audible.
