About this event

WAEDOCS Eating Disorder Masterclass Series for Dietitians presented by My Ly and Nikki Cummings.

Health at Every Size® (HAES) can help individuals with binge eating disorder by promoting a weight-inclusive, non-judgmental approach to food and body image. It emphasizes intuitive eating, which encourages individuals to listen to their body's hunger and fullness cues, rather than adhering to strict diets or food rules. This approach can help individuals with binge eating disorder develop a healthier relationship with food and their bodies, reduce feelings of shame and guilt, and improve their overall well-being.
