I believe having a healthy relationship with food is the key to attaining any nutritional goal. People are born with the ability to maintain health and weight without following strict diets. The body and the brain work together sending rich messages back and forth enabling us to sustain health while feeling satisfied. Over time many of us stop listening to our bodies. We impose rules and make judgments about the foods we eat distorting our relationship with food and our bodies. By restoring the natural body mind connection and gaining factual nutrition knowledge, you can be the healthy person you were born to be.
