Intuitive eating isn’t just for those who are visibly struggling — it’s for anyone whose relationship with food or their body has been shaped by diet-culture's external control, pressure, or fear.


Q: Who is Intuitive Eating for?

A: Everyone harmed by diet culture!


1. People who feel they have an uncontrollable appetite

Because intuitive eating helps rebuild body trust and calm biological drivers caused by restriction, stress, or reactive eating cycles.

🔁 It’s not that your appetite is broken — it’s trying to protect you.

2. People who have controlled their eating well in the past — but find it’s getting harder

Because appetite regulation changes over time, especially after years of suppression. Intuitive eating offers a more sustainable, body-led approach that doesn’t rely on willpower.

⚠️ If “what used to work” no longer feels manageable, your body may be asking for a different way.

3. Athletes who have had to cut weight, maintain a certain physique, or push through hunger

Because performance-focused eating can disconnect you from hunger, fullness, and satisfaction cues. Intuitive eating helps reconnect you to your body’s needs when the sport is over — or when burnout begins.

🏋️‍♂️ Your body deserves recovery, not just performance.

4. People in appearance-driven industries (e.g. fashion, acting, dance, fitness)

Because when eating is driven by external pressure or aesthetics, it can lead to disordered patterns and body mistrust. Intuitive eating supports long-term wellbeing and self-worth beyond appearance.

5. People with a long history of dieting

Because chronic dieting disrupts natural hunger and fullness regulation, increases food obsession, and creates rebound weight gain. Intuitive eating offers a path out of the restrict–binge cycle.

⛓️ The more diets you’ve done, the more likely this is the real answer.

6. People recovering from disordered eating or eating disorders (with clinical support if needed)

Because intuitive eating restores a safe, flexible, non-restrictive relationship with food and body signals — essential for full recovery.

🧠 It’s not just about stopping behaviours — it’s about healing your thinking.

7. People living in larger bodies who’ve experienced weight stigma

Because intuitive eating shifts the focus from weight loss to wellbeing, and helps undo years of shame, medical bias, and social pressure.

❤️ You deserve health without judgment — and care without conditions.

8. People who feel addicted to food or constantly thinking about it

Because food obsession is often driven by unmet biological or emotional needs. Intuitive eating reduces “food chatter” by meeting those needs instead of suppressing them.

🧩 It’s not addiction — it’s unmet need.

9. Parents or caregivers who want to break the cycle for the next generation

Because modelling intuitive eating helps children grow up trusting their bodies and feeling free from food shame.

🌱 Your healing becomes their protection.

10. People who feel exhausted by the mental load of managing food

Because intuitive eating simplifies eating — it restores clarity, reduces decision fatigue, and frees up energy for life beyond food.

🧘‍♀️ Peace is possible — and it’s not about perfection.
