- Do you feel comforted and soothed by food?
- “One is too many and a hundred is not enough” – does this resonate with you?

- Does your relationship with food affect other areas of your life?
- Are you tired of having this love-hate relationship with food and swinging between the extremes of rigid abstinence and out of control bingeing?
- You know you use food to cope but you just can’t seem to break the habit and pattern, no matter how much will power and discipline you apply and now you are feeling out of control, helpless and disillusioned?
- Are you exhausted from the battle field of life where you have been at war with food and with yourself for a long time…are you weary and worn out and don’t know what to do?
- Do you feel so out of control of your emotional life and you seem so often, to be reacting to strong feelings, almost as if they had a life of their own, and then having to pick up the pieces after the emotional storm has struck?
- You know you cannot carry on this way – are you ready to walk a different road?
- Are you tired of having to protect you from yourself because of the lack of trust you have of yourself especially around food?
- Do you long to be in a place where food is just food, and not a comforter, a mother, an enemy, an addictive drug, an emotional soother, a coping mechanism, or something to numb out your bad feelings?

Giulia’s story…
“After struggling with an eating disorder for 20 years and spending so much time in a power struggle and love-hate relationship with food, my body and with eating, I have now come to a place in my life where I enjoy food and have found freedom and love in my body and for my body.
I have a greater capacity to be with uncomfortable feelings. When they arise, I now recognize that they are calling my attention to something that is needing my presence, love and acceptance. I feel free and at ease. “
