Am I Hungry

Mindful Eating Workshop

Eat mindfully and live vibrantly.

The Am I Hungry?® approach to weight management teaches intuitive eating and empowers you to relearn to use your natural ability to eat just the right amount of food and practice more productive ways to meet your other needs.

Ask not what you are eating, but why?

For most people, weight problems and food issues aren't just about what you're eating, but why you're eating in the first place. If you're not eating to satisfy hunger, then what else could be happening? Are you eating in response to other triggers, perhaps the time of day, appetizing food, boredom or stress? Is food meeting other emotional needs for you?

Constructive and powerful.

The tools are simple. The results are profound. Join us to:

  • Tune in to your body’s ability to know when, what and how much to eat
  • Get off the dieting yoyo
  • Learn to recognize and cope with their triggers for overeating
  • Rediscover joy in physical activity
  • Nourish your body, mind, heart and spirit through balanced living

Quotes from class participants

"The skills I learned have gradually seeped into my thinking. They have given me a confidence I have not felt in years."

"The program was exceptionally well organized and professional. It was presented sequentially in a way that each week we built on skills/information we learned the week before."

"I've lost some (not a lot) of weight but how I feel about myself is different. How I present myself is different. The activities I do are different and lots more positive than before...I feel like the changes have taken hold and are extremely positive."
