CONVERSATIONS with Bod™

 

How might your life be different, if you were to…

 

  • eat consciously, for nourishment and enjoyment without worry of weight
  • make peace with food
  • find joy in your size, shape and your body as a whole
  • take time to care for all aspects of yourself (soulful, emotional, spiritual, mental, physical, social) in mindful and nurturing ways


Sound impossible?  It isn't.

 

What might change if you learned…

 

  • exactly what, when and how much to eat at any time, for your individual needs
  • to decode the symbolic meaning of food cravings, discover how they may be serving you, as well as masking areas of your life that are calling for attention, and how to transcend them to restore balance
  • to nourish all aspects of yourself, freeing up tremendous amounts of energy
  • to express yourself from the inside out, radiating a beauty that far surpasses the illusion of the cultural ideal
  • you don't have to give up anything…you will simply be making new choices that nurture your deepest desires and serve your highest good

  

…What kind of difference might this make?

What People Are Saying...

 

“I loved Barbara’s humor, spontaneity, depth and warmth. I wish I had a tape of all the classes, especially the meditations and visualizations so I could practice more at home! The personal stories in the class were always powerful and inspiring and I appreciated [Barbara’s] authenticity and vulnerability (and creative solutions to her own problems)! It gave me more understanding of how this came about and it was very inspiring to me. It helped me to go deeper with the sharing that night. Thanks for this class. It's helping me to be more conscious about my eating and my reasons for eating. I would definitely recommend this workshop. It was fascinating, challenging, inspiring, and supportive. I had some good laughs. I learned a lot. I loved the 7-step method—practical and specific! Thank you!”

 

—D.D., Petaluma, CA

"Barbara, your workshop has opened my eyes even more to how I relate to my body & food. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of this educational process and research. It has also changed how I consciously (and subconsciously!) parent my daughter in this area. I am so grateful for this! In addition, I truly appreciate how you incorporated honoring the spiritual into the workshop. This key piece is often left unacknowledged in programs centering around weight/eating."

–C.L., Santa Rosa
