Workshop: Rewrite Your Eating Story:
Start Your Mindful Eating Journey
By Daniela Simionescu
Brussels: 22 March 2023
*** Please note new venue below ***
Have you ever thought that each of us has a unique and complex eating story? We use food some times to soothe ourselves, to cope with stress, to numb difficult emotions, or as pleasure or reward.
In this experiential and informative workshop, you are invited to power up your curiosity and discover emotional eating as a fascinating story about what makes us human: our needs for love, connection and belonging. It sounds counterintuitive, but when it comes to food, also, we do not need more control, we need more self-love and kindness, and less self-judgment.
We will explore, in particular:
- A different way to frame our relationship with food.
- Our current eating stories using visual, intuitive tools.
- Setting yourself free from the old stories using mindfulness tools and setting clear boundaries around food.
- A simple, personalised, toolbox to help you start a mindful eating journey.
We will learn to decode our ongoing emotional eating stories so that we can create mindful eating boundaries for ourselves in a compassionate, sustainable way.
About Daniela Simionescu
Daniela Simionescu works as a translator and as a life and health coach. She has had for many years a complicated relationship with emotions, food and diets. Her personal story and the health issues pushed her to learn more about the bigger picture of eating. Back in 2020, when COVID hit, she started training with the Institute for Integrative Nutrition to be able to factor in nutrition and lifestyle as resources in her coaching sessions. Following an Emotional Eating Psychology advanced course was a natural next step.
Daniela offers individual and group coaching to help busy people untangle unhelpful eating habits, make better lifestyle choices and develop personal ecology habits. She is currently writing her first digital Emotional Eating 101 course.
She is also very passionate about animals and is finalising this year a Master degree in Ethology and Human-Animal Interaction at the Faculty of Animal Science and Biotechnologies in Cluj-Napoca, Romania. She loves her life in the Belgian countryside with her rescued cats and dogs and three ponies will join soon her family.
