​Ready to ditch the diet rules and finally trust your body? Work with a Registered Dietitian to embrace Intuitive Eating, a non-diet approach to wellness that helps you reclaim food freedom and nourish yourself with confidence.

​

If you're ready to break free from dieting, heal your relationship with food, and reconnect with your body, our one-to-one Intuitive Eating Intensive is here to support you.

 

At Aterra Nutrition®, our Registered Dietitian and Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor offers compassionate and down-to-earth support to help you break free from the mental and emotional toll of dieting. This weekly program offers personalized, non-diet guidance rooted in practical and sustainable habits. Together, we’ll explore how to honor your hunger and satisfaction, let go of food guilt, and build a compassionate, trusting relationship with your body.

​

No more counting, tracking, or rigid rules, just real, down-to-earth support to help you nourish yourself with confidence and joy. If you're committed to leaving the restrict-binge cycle behind and embracing food freedom for good, this is your invitation to make peace with food once and for all.

​

Intuitive Eating is not a diet. 

​

Intuitive Eating is a journey back to your body—its instincts, emotions, and wisdom.​

​

You don’t need to love your body to begin. It’s normal to struggle with body image in a culture that equates thinness with worth. Through personalized coaching, you’ll build self-compassion, confidence, and sustainable habits that support true wellness.

​

Once you experience food freedom, you’ll never want to go back. Intuitive Eating isn’t just about how you eat, it’s about how you live.

​

Intuitive Eating is for anyone ready to:

​

• Break free from diet culture and finally stop dieting

• Stop stressing over whether food is "healthy" enough

• Improve your relationship with food and feel at peace with what you eat

• Enjoy celebrations, holidays, and meals without guilt or stress

• Say goodbye to the endless cycle of yo-yo dieting

• Live a life where rigid food rules no longer control you

• Get the tools to advocate for yourself through a non-diet approach

• Feel confident in your food choices, without the uncertainty

• Challenge those "food police" thoughts that keep you stuck

• Make peace with your food, your body, and your mind

• Experience true satisfaction in eating, without the guilt

• Embrace body neutrality and appreciate your body for what it is

• Begin to heal from disordered eating behaviors

• Respect food and recognize how it nourishes us

• Discover how nutrition can be gentle, nourishing, and beneficial to your life

​​

 

Real-world effects of Intuitive Eating:
 

1. Less Stress Around Food

You stop obsessing about what you “should” eat.

• No more guilt after meals

• No more mental math of calories/points/macros

• No more loud "food noise"

• Freedom to enjoy eating again

​

2. Fewer Binges and Overeating Episodes

When food isn’t restricted, the “urge to binge” decreases.

• You stop swinging between "being good” and then overeating

• You feel more in control around previously “triggering” foods

​

3. More Consistent Body Shape/Size Over Time

IE supports weight stability, not yo-yo dieting.

• No repeated lose–regain cycles

• Body naturally moves toward its comfortable range

​

4. Better Body Image

You learn to respect your body instead of fighting it.

• Less negative self-talk

• More confidence and comfort in your body

​

5. Increased Enjoyment of Food

Because all foods are allowed, you:

• Actually taste and enjoy your meals

• Feel satisfied after eating

• Stop eating when you truly want to, not when “the diet says I can”

​

6. Improved Hunger and Fullness Awareness

You reconnect with the cues your body already has.

• Trusting your body's cues instead of overthinking them

• Eat when your body says you need to

• Stop when you’re comfortably full and content

• Avoid extremes of feeling ravenous or overly-stuffed

​

7. Reduced Emotional Eating

You learn emotional coping skills outside of food.​

• Turning to food for stress of comfort less often

• Using rest, social connection, or stress reduction instead

​

8. Better Physical Energy

Without restriction:

• More stable blood sugar

• More concentration and focus

• Fewer energy crashes

• Better workout performance (because you fuel properly)

​

9. Healthier Relationship With Exercise

Movement becomes something you do to feel good—not punish yourself.

• More consistency

• Less burnout

• More joyful activities

​

10. Long-Term Sustainability

Unlike diets, IE can be maintained forever.

• No “falling off the wagon” or "get back on track on Monday"

• Works with your lifestyle

• Adaptable during holidays, travel, or changing seasons of life
