REGISTRATION IS OPEN FOR WINTER 2025
20 week online education & support group
MARCH 5 - JULY 16, 2025
Weekly on Wednesdays 6:30 PM PST
Let Us Eat Cake
Let Us Eat Cake is a 20 week education and support group focused on the Intuitive Eating book by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch.
In these weeks we will be reading the book together one chapter at a time, discussing the concepts within it and applying them to our daily life.
We wanted to create a group that can be:
a consistent and reliable gathering place, hence the 20 weeks group duration
intentional space to show up - we are all here to learn something and look toward a way beyond diets
oriented toward communal and collective processing and action, because this work can be lonely if you are doing it by yourself.
Whether you know a lot about Health At Every Size (HAES) and body liberation, or are just beginning to dip your toe into this work, we welcome you to join us to learn and, more importantly, unlearn together.
Details
We will explore:
intuitive eating principles
relationship with food
relationship with our bodies
reshaping our thoughts about movement
reconnecting to the pleasure of eating
body trust as it relates to intuitive eating
honoring our hunger in the diet culture we live in
self-compassion, self-awareness, and self-care
social justice as it relates to food and bodies
and more!
