This 4-page handout is an invaluable tool for dietitians to use when explaining the concept of intuitive eating to clients. It is a great starting point before reading the book with a client, as well as helpful in identifying for the client and practitioner if the client is ready to begin intuitive eating.

The handout includes these topics:

  • What is this INTUITIVE EATING thing I keep hearing about?
  • What they can expect on your journey to become an intuitive eater.
  • What the client can expect in regard to food cravings.
  • What will prevent clients from being able to develop the skills necessary to become an intuitive eater?
  • What skills/tools will help them on their journey to become intuitive eater.

Also, there is a 2-page questionnaire included which helps clients identify their vulnerability factors for beginning the journey to Intuitive Eating. By the end of the handouts patients will be able to answer this question: “After completing these questions, what have you found to be your main vulnerability factors (i.e. emotions, situations, etc.) in regards to trying new eating experiences and honoring your body?”

And YOU will have a better assessment of their readiness as well as more insight in planning for their future sessions.

  • Beautiful!

    I love these handouts and plan to use them frequently. I’m planning on starting an IE group soon, so these will be helpful to start off with. Just a heads up though — there are a few typos on the last page under the questions 5a (no question mark), 5c (“thoughts”), 5d (“that”), 5e (“to”).
