Empowering you to break free from dieting and rediscover the joy in eating

Hi there, I’m Áine, an intuitive eating counsellor and wellbeing coach based in the West Midlands. I discovered intuitive eating after many years of yoyo dieting, not trusting my body and trying my best to get my body to a weight and shape that it didn’t want to be.

I went from repeating the same cycle of diets which lead to emotional eating, binge eating episodes, hormonal imbalances, and a constant obsession about my weight, to making peace with food, being completely free from rules and restrictions and working with my body’s natural weight (not against it).

I now truly enjoy food, and exercise because it makes me feel good, not to burn calories. I never choose foods because I ‘should’ or ‘shouldn’t’, but because I now understand what feels good in my body, and as a result my body settles around it’s natural, set point weight range, without me forcing it to be there.

Learning and fully accepting that my natural weight was more than my mind wanted it to be, was a big step in my intuitive eating journey.

Even though rediscovering your intuitive eater and letting go of the familiarity of dieting can feel scary at first, I can honestly say it has been the best thing I have ever done to improve my health, and I’m so excited to help you do the same!

🧡Embracing your unique body shape can be a game-changer for self-love, body confidence, and food freedom 🙌. Here are 5 ways to help you celebrate your natural, unique shape:

1️⃣ Dress for joy – Try choosing outfits that make you feel empowered and joyful, highlighting what you love about your body 👗.

2️⃣ Shift focus to function – Your body is a powerhouse! Think of everything it does - walking, hugging, dancing (and so much more!). Aim to celebrate its strength and abilities over appearance 🏃‍♀️.

3️⃣ Avoid comparison – Constantly comparing yourself to others can steal your joy. Embrace the idea that beauty comes in countless forms and your shape is one of them 🤗.

4️⃣ Celebrate your unique shape – Every body has its own beauty. Instead of wishing for a different shape, focus on what makes yours special. Supporting your uniqueness boosts confidence and self-love 🎊.

5️⃣ Move for fun – Exercise for enjoyment, never punishment. Whether dancing, hiking or lifting weights at the gym, find activities that make you feel good and energized, rather than focusing on how they could make you look 🤸🏾‍♀.

You absolutely deserve to love your body just as it is 💛

When we lean away from diet rules, media pressures, and societal expectations, we can embrace a positive and joyful relationship with food. 🍓✨
Food becomes more than just fuel - it’s pleasure, connection, and nourishment.

By trusting our bodies and tuning into what we really need, we create space for food to enrich our lives in a healthy and balanced way 💛.

✨ Did you know we’re all born as Intuitive Eaters? ✨ (part 1)

When we’re babies, we naturally know when we’re hungry and when we’re full. But over time, diet culture, social influences, and media can pull us away from this innate ability.

It’s never too late to reconnect with your body’s wisdom and rebuild that trust! 💛 By listening to your hunger and fullness cues, you can develop a more peaceful relationship with food – one that’s free from restriction and guilt 🤗.

Hope you find these videos useful (look out for part 2 coming tomorrow), please feel free to reach out if you have any questions, anytime ❤️.

By giving yourself unconditional permission to enjoy all foods, taking any foods down off a pedestal, you make them emotionally equal. This will help to reduce cravings for foods that have been forbidden, and leave space for you to truly listen to your body. 🍕🥗💫
