I've always found the Intuitive Eating books very helpful. I also have the card deck.
This workbook is the missing piece. I've had to force myself to slow down, evaluate my feelings, and work on the things I need to. This workbook helped me do that.
I highly recommend Intuitive Eating Workbook, whether you've read any other of the books and publications.
Thank you to New Harbinger Publications and NetGalley for a digital copy of this title in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own.
This workbook really helped me improve my relationship with food. I have been working through the Intuitive Eating Journal, which includes a lot of reflection, but this helped with beginning to implement changes.
This a great book if you are just starting the journey into IE. It can feel a bit redundant if you are well aware about IE, but the actually worksheets are great! I used them as a guide to create a mega-sheet detailing my cravings and feelings.
I did not realize this was the companion to the book of the same name, but I dove in headfirst. Even without having initially read the book, the Intuitive Eating Workbook was really helpful in exploring my eating habits and how I eat emotionally. I went out and bought the book so I could look into the theories about societal pressures, expectations, and body image and how they influence my choices. With both the book and this workbook I gained insights into how I approach food, eating and my own appreciation for my body. The authors get into the biases of medical perspectives that don't help people with eating disorders of any kind. I'm continuing to learn and trying the different exercises to help my journey. So far, I'm really pleased with the results and high recommend this book for anyone looking to make real changes in their health. Thank you for the early look and for introducing me to the authors.
The Intuitive Eating Workbook: Ten Principles for Nourishing a Healthy Relationship with Food (Second Edition) is a comprehensive and compassionate guide designed for individuals seeking to improve their relationship with food and their bodies. Based on the well-established principles of intuitive eating, this updated version incorporates the latest research and practical exercises to support readers in overcoming diet culture and fostering self-trust. This is a great companion to the The Intuitive Eating book!
Eating should be easy, right? Right? Um, not so much for me. I struggle everyday. I grasp for the newest research on the best diet, the best foods, and foods to avoid. I want to be perfect, but perfect doesn't exist and shouldn't be a goal for anyone. I have so much to learn, and am using The Intuitive Eating Workbook as my guide to a healthy relationship with food and myself.
In this updated version, the Intuitive Eating Workbook, based on the updated version of the book with the same name, the authors, Resch, Tribole, and Tylka help the reader explore their physical and emotional relationship with food and what nourishes the soul. While I am not as familiar with the original version, I do see that this workbook includes more current insight on the pressures of society on body image and how we talk about food and our bodies. I appreciate how gentle and compassionate the authors are to these influences and pressures. They also address current medical perspectives that are fraught with bias and cite as evidence the medical communities resistance to embracing new ideology about weight.
While I am using this as a self-guided journey the authors share that this workbook can be a companion to working with an eating disorder therapist Each chapter is based on one of the ten principles of intuitive eating and provides exercises to practice these principles. As someone who is brand new to intuitive eating, I am working through the book slowly, chapter by chapter, soaking in all of the information and trying each of the exercises. I see that this is going to take me time. Changing my thoughts, mindset and developing trust in myself is a long process.
I am hopeful that by adhering to the intuitive eating principles, I can change. I am thankful for this workbook to guide me in my journey to have a peaceful relationship with my body. I wonder what life will be like without the constant food and body image chatter in my head. I look forward to it!
