My T sent me this. No pressure to sign up. I emailed them asking if it was for people with Bulimia. They have not responded yet.

THE NO-DIET WEEKEND WORKSHOP
Repair Your Relationship with Food and Your Body
with Therapist & Educator
September 27 – 29, 2013

This experiential workshop, held in a serene, natural setting, is a supportive opportunity to rediscover what you innately know -- when, what and how much to eat. You will learn mindful-eating skills for recognizing hunger and fullness, distinguishing between nutritional and emotional hunger, and learn to feed yourself with greater ease and enjoyment.

 You will learn to trust your body’s innate ability to eat when you’re hungry and stop when you’ve have had enough.

 You will learn to enjoy eating with greater awareness, confidence and pleasure.

 In addition to learning the difference between nutritional and emotional hunger, you will learn how to nourish yourself without deprivation.

 You will reach a deeper understanding of why you stuff your feelings with food as well as how to develop compassionate alternatives.

Time: Fri., 6:30–9:30 p.m.; Sat., 9 a.m.–4 p.m.; Sun., 9 a.m.–3 p.m.
Cost: $320, plus $50 audio companion

When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
