Intuitive Eating Support Group
next cohort starting January 2024

I will be facilitating an Intuitive Eating Support Group every other week for 5 months. We will be using the Intuitive Eating workbook to work through the 10 principles of Intuitive Eating. Each session will be dedicated to 1 principle for a total of 10 sessions.

This group is for anyone (past clients, current clients, or new!) who wants to have a healthier relationship with food, wants to improve their physical, mental, and emotional health, wants support and community from other like-minded individuals on a similar healing journey, all while getting support from me, a registered dietitian and certified intuitive eating counselor.


Why Intuitive Eating? Intuitive Eating(IE) was created in the 1990s by 2 registered dietitians, Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch, to help people ditch diets and food rules, and rediscover the pleasures of eating. IE is a dynamic mind-body integration of instinct, emotion, and rational thought. It is a personal process of honoring your health by paying attention to the messages of your body and meeting your physical and emotional needs.

Fast forward 30+ years, there are now over
140 studies showing the benefits from this self-care eating framework including lower disordered eating, triglycerides, blood pressure, emotional eating, self silencing, loss of control eating, binge eating, weight bias internalization, and body dissatisfaction, and higher self esteem, well being and optimism, variety of foods eaten, body appreciation and acceptance, HDL cholesterol, interoceptive awareness, pleasure from eating, proactive coping, psychological hardiness, unconditional self regard, and life satisfaction.

I hear from my 1:1 clients all that time how doing this work can feel like you are going against the grain given the diet culture world we live in. That is why I decided to create a support group to give you a safe space to process, explore, learn, and unlearn with others going through a similar journey.

FAQ

 Who is this support group for? This group is for anyone who:
-wants to improve their relationship with food, movement, and/or body
-is new to Intuitive Eating and wants to learn how to become an Intuitive Eater, is feeling stuck on their IE journey, or has been been on their journey for some time but feels the extra support will help move them closer to food freedom
-is committed to no longer dieting but not sure where to go from there
-wants to improve their physical, emotional, and/or mental health
-wants to be able to live without rigid food rules
-wants to feel more in control around all foods
-wants to learn how to connect with their body and understand the messages of the body
-wants to learn how to "eat normally"
-wants a community of like-minded individuals
-wants a safe space to explore all of the above!

Can I still join if I have a desire to lose weight or change my body? Yes! If you are committed to no longer dieting but still have a desire to change your body, I would say that makes you human. Although Intuitive Eating is a weight neutral model, meaning the focus is not on changing your body but rather improving your relationship with food, the support group can still provide you a safe space to process your feelings about wanting to (or feeling like you have to) change your body. Working through those desires is very common when wanting to improve your relationship with food and body.

What if I miss a session or know ahead of time that I can't make one? Because there is a structure to the support group and we will be working through the 10 principles of Intuitive Eating, when you sign up for the group you are committing to the full 10 sessions of the group. There are no refunds.

What forms of payment do you accept? I accept most major credit cards, HSA cards, or FSA cards. However, if you plan to use a HSA/FSA card I would confirm with the company ahead of time that this service is covered.


I am a current client (or past client), am I allowed to sign up? Absolutely!! You are certainly allowed to work 1:1 with me and join the support group for the community aspect. I would love to have you there.

Will I be receiving 1:1 nutrition counseling through this support group? No. This is a support group to help you improve your relationship with food, movement, and body by working through the 10 principles of Intuitive Eating. If you are looking for individualized nutrition counseling you can send me an email at shay@shaytinarinutrition.com or visit my "nutrition counseling" page on my website to learn more!
