Ep 185. Mastering Mindful Eating with Gina Worful RD

Why am I always hungry and feel out of control around food? Is monitoring my food intake and tracking every calorie a good way to help lose weight and feel better in my body?

These are questions that many clients ask. So, we invited an expert to chat all about mindfulness and listening to our body's signals when it comes to food and nutrition.

Today, we talk to Gina Worful, RD, from the Mastering Mindfulness Institute. We cover many different aspects of why we eat, how stress can affect what and how we eat, and how the need to control our food and body can actually back-fire.

Gina started the Mastering Mindfulness Institute with the tagline of 'You Don’t Need More Control Over Food, You Need a New Approach'.

This is a powerful approach that encourages people to self-reflect in order to determine what is driving their eating behaviours, and to approach the food relationship and body image in a different way.
