Giving up dieting is like walking into the ocean and beginning to swim, trusting that eventually you will get to another shore you can’t yet see. Intuitive Eating is that other shore and I assure you, it’s there. You’re smart, accomplished, well-liked. A productive member of society. A model citizen, good friend, stellar parent, […]
So I screwed up the free Chat with an IE Pro this past Tuesday. I miscommunicated, sent out the wrong information, and there you have it. I sincerely apologize. What can I say? I’m an imperfect human being. Like a lot of us, I’ve been carrying a lot lately so something was bound to fall […]
A new study published in PLOS Biology found that the bacteria in our guts tell us what to eat in order to maintain a balance in their various populations, thereby keeping us in working order.

I couldn’t pick up my son on his first birthday. We were in Sicily celebrating with his grandparents and cousins, aunts and uncles. It was a joyous occasion in every way except for the stabbing pain that extended from my middle back to beneath my left shoulder blade and the dull ache I felt down […]

Have you ever heard this before? I guarantee you have if you’ve ever taken a flight anywhere in the US or abroad. The airlines are clear: if an emergency occurs, please make sure your own oxygen mask is in place before attempting to help others. Translation: you won’t be much help to others if you […]
Recently I wrote a post entitled “The truth about sugar addiction” in which I likened the newfound certainty around the dangers of eating sugar to my own misguided (but never unsure) youth. Over the years, we have rotated our focus on what foods are saintly or evil. Whereas the cholesterol and saturated fat found in […]

The other day a friend posted a video on Facebook. It’s the story of a disabled veteran named Arthur who transforms himself through a yoga practice.
