Learn to Enjoy Food Without Guilt!


Do you struggle with weight control? Do you have a love/hate relationship with food? Do you eat too fast and suffer from indigestion? Do you often feel full but not satisfied after eating a meal? If you answered yes to these questions, this article can help you learn how to solve these eating problems while enjoying the foods you love.

If you would like to develop a healthy relationship with food that can really transform your whole approach to how you live and experience life, try Mindful Eating. It can help improve your body image, self-esteem, health and relationships.

Mindful Eating is a form of mindful meditation that you can practice each time you eat or drink. You can reap all the benefits of meditation and also all the benefits of having a healthy relationship with food. You will begin to feel satisfied with less as you are totally engaged in the process of eating and enjoying food. You will no longer use food to satisfy emotional needs, i.e. loneliness, boredom. You will be healthier and feel better as you make food choices that are pleasing and satisfying for you and nourishing for your body.

New Feldenkrais Core Lessons for Runners!


Are you tired of feeling stiff, heavy, and slow when you run? Do you feel like you are really taking a pounding? Then it's time to get your core into action!

Conventional approaches to "core stabilization" do not take into account the bio mechanical needs of runners and often increase effort and decrease performance. These three movement lessons will teach you how to move your core to reduce stress on your joints and make your running light, easy, enjoyable and powerful.
