How to Balance Inner and Outer Wisdom for Weight Loss Success

"Eating with awareness is the most important and powerful tool to transform your relationship to food and the body." — Marc David

Women who struggle with their weight and constantly yo-yo diet are often looking for answers OUTSIDE of themselves.

Saying things like:

I just need someone to TELL ME...

...what I "can" and "can't" eat

...how many calories I need

...what meal plan I should follow

...what my macro split should be

...what the "best" protein sources are

And while all of this information can be helpful to guide you in the right direction,

👉 It will never take the place of developing more awareness of your needs, wants and habits.

Struggling dieters often find themselves lost in a sea of conflicting nutrition advice and jumping from one fad to the next, because they haven't taken the time to develop the awareness that's needed to identify what works for them and what doesn't.

This is where the balance between INNER and OUTER wisdom comes in.

Outer wisdom is valuable because it gives factual information about nutrition and guidelines for where to begin when making changes to your eating habits.

But most dieters get caught up in outer wisdom, thinking it’s where their answers to health, weight loss and happiness lie...but the truth is that outer wisdom is just a piece of the puzzle.

👉 Only YOU know what your mind and body needs.

No one can TELL you:

• How hungry you feel

• When you’ve eaten enough to feel full

• What foods make you feel crappy

• What foods you enjoy eating

However inner wisdom on it's own can only get you so far because you also need an understanding of principles like energy balance and nutrient density in order to lose weight.

✨ The magic happens when Inner and Outer wisdom work together.

When you COMBINE Inner wisdom — awareness of hunger, preferences, needs and cravings,

With Outer Wisdom — knowledge of nutritional science and eating strategies,

You’ll be able to make wise, yet flexible, decisions for your health and your life.

Which will not only free you from the rigid mindset of dieting AND help you lose weight,

👉 It will EMPOWER you to live your life with confidence and joy.
