London Centre For Intuitive Eating

Laura Thomas, PhD, RNutr
Registered Nutritionist

London Centre for Intuitive Eating was established in 2017 to help people get their shit together around
food, body image,and movement. We’re here to help you build a healthy relationship to food without
rules or restriction. And if the thought of that gives you palpitations, don’t freak out, there’s a method
to the madness; we’ll walk you through it so you don’t feel like you’re drowning in doughnuts!

  • Intuitive Eating
  • Health at Every Size
  • Mindful Eating
  • Non-diet Nutrition
 

While Intuitive Eating has become a bit of a buzz word lately, don’t sweat, this isn’t another fad diet. At it’s core, Intuitive Eating is about relearning HOW to eat, without all the WEIRD rules, restrictions, and deprivation that make us weird about food and eating in the first place. You’ll learn to break up with diets and say sayonara
to MyFitnessPal. You’ll find out how to tune in and interpret your innate hunger & fullness cues (trickier
than it sounds, but totally doable) and find out what your body’s really saying when you eat your emotions.

HOW DO I KNOW IF INTUITIVE EATING IS RIGHT FOR ME?

If you’re tired of feeling batshit around food and bored of bouncing from counting macros, to cutting carbs, to going on week-long juice cleanses because you heard it was the BEST way of losing weight, only to gain it all
right back, then this is the place for you. Intuitive Eating isn’t a weight loss diet, but it can help
you develop healthy habits – screw what the magazines tell you!

If you’re DONE with processing your emotions by faceplanting into a bowl of cookie dough or the thought of going food shopping or eating in restaurant stresses you out, then this is the place for you.

If you can’t take another day of doing mental acrobatics trying to keep track of what you can and can’t eat based on what
you’ve already eaten and how much you’ve worked out then sign up below for a 15 minute discovery call
with Laura to find out if Intuitive Eating is right for you.

Our short discovery call allows us to learn more about you, your relationship to food, and how we can help support you. It
also gives you the opportunity to ask any questions about how we work and what to expect from the process.
Or take this mini-quiz to help you figure out whether or not Intuitive Eating might help you:

EATING YOUR EMOTIONS

      I eat when I’m feeling:

    • Emotional
    • Bored
    • Lonely
    • Stressed Out

…even though I’m not physically hungry

  • I use food to help me soothe negative emotions

RELIANCE ON INTERNAL CUES

  • I don’t trust my body to tell me when to eat
  • I don’t trust my body to tell me what to eat

BODY-FOOD-CHOICE CONGRUENCE

  • Most of the time, I don’t want to eat nutritious foods
  • I don’t often eat foods that make my body perform well
  • I don’t often eat foods that give my body energy and stamina
