What is Intuitive Eating?

Intuitive Eating is an approach that teaches you how to create a healthy relationship with your food, mind, and body--where you ultimately become the expert of your own body.  You learn how to distinguish between physical and emotional feelings, and gain a sense of body wisdom. Intuitive Eating is rooted in 10 basic principles that invite you to a world of satisfying eating and a sense of freedom that can be exhilarating!

Workshops 

We offer one 4-week Intuitive Eating workshop for students each semester. They are free for students and will provide education, activities, practice, and support.

Individual consultations

We also offer free, one-on-one Intuitive Eating consultations. These consultations are best for students who are looking to improve their relationship with food, movement, and their bodies. Rather than focusing on weight loss and following a meal plan, we focus on making peace with food, ditching food rules, honoring our cues for hunger and fullness, finding movement we enjoy, and practicing body respect.

Students can also check out Intuitive Eating books for free.
