About Our Approach

To succeed at your eating and weight goals, and keep your sanity in the process, you need three things

1.  A Way of Eating that is sustainable. It’s not rocket science to realize that if you are starving your body of its important nutrients your body won’t function well. It may even cry out in the form of cravings, out-of-control feelings and disease.  Additionally, your Way of Eating has to work with, not against your lifestyle.  BodyWay is not a cookie-cutter approach.  We don’t advocate any one right way to eat.  We help you to find a Way of Eating that works for your body’s optimal health and your lifestyle.
                           
2.  A Way of Living that Nourishes You. Challenged by busy lifestyles, most of us get by with little emotional and spiritual nourishment.  It’s no wonder we fall back on the only form of nourishment we know—food!  BodyWay teaches strategies that, when applied daily, take us back to our most reliable source of nourishment—our heart.  As you learn to become quiet and listen to the wisdom of this amazing organ, trusting and following its guidance, your self-confidence and faith in your ability to be nourished by life will increase.  Hence, your reliance on food for emotional and spiritual nourishment will diminish.

3.  A Way of Thinking that Supports Success. Studies have shown that individuals with optimistic attitudes enjoy greater success and happiness than those without. Emotional eaters tend to suffer from negative and critical outlooks.  Without strong and regular intervention, the negative mind will wreck our best intentions and efforts.  BodyWay teaches a multitude of mental strategies for putting the critical mind to rest, allowing participants to benefit from the outcome of harvesting a strong positive outlook. 

While you may have worked with one or more of the above at one time or another, my guess is that you probably haven’t yet incorporated a way of integrating these tools into your life in an ongoing and consistent fashion.
 
BodyWay provides you with a practical step-by-step system for incorporating your Way of Eating, Living and Thinking consistently into your life.

How exactly does BodyWay work?

If you are like most of the women who enter BodyWay you have tried to fix your problems with your eating and weight by dieting, exercising more, or experimenting with some form of mindful or natural eating approach.  You may have tried therapy or a twelve step program or two, as well.
While the work you’ve done has most likely helped somewhat, the problem may be lingering because treatment programs for food-related issues while teaching strategies to change behavior, still keep us problem focused. They don’t get to the underlying cause—the very reason you began down this road to begin with!

BodyWay is a wholistic, mind-body-spirit approach that will take you to wholeness through the pathway of your food and weight struggles

We, at BodyWay know that talking or thinking ABOUT the problem won’t solve it. Life problems can’t be resolved with the mind. You can’t talk yourself into solution, fix yourself into solution or discipline yourself into solution. Why? Because the body won’t go along with what the mind says if the body doesn’t agree. The only way out is through the wisdom of the whole feeling-body.

But I hate my body!

What you may not realize is that your body holds unconscious patterns that are blocking you from becoming all that you can be. If you think you’ve tried everything, yet are still struggling, you may be missing a key piece of the puzzle—your body wisdom—because your body holds the key to your release.

A note about weight loss

Overweight is caused by biochemical imbalances and overeating due to emotional reasons. Emotional eaters must deal with their emotional eating patterns and their biochemical imbalances. BodyWay addresses these two causes of overweight without focusing on weight loss. Focusing on weight loss is a distraction and will ultimately sabotage your weight loss efforts.
