A Two-Day Workshop for Women
By attending these workshops, I can help you to:
- Stop dieting forever and instead, adopt a sane, balanced
approach to food and eating

no matter what shape or size you happen to be
- Let go of food and weight preoccupation forever so
that you can focus your energies on the exciting and fulfilling
things you want to do instead

“I struggle with feeling
beautiful, and have spent most of my life comparing myself
to images of women that have been airbrushed, surgically
altered and digitally enhanced. Not only have I bought
products sold by the beauty and weight loss industries,
I have also internalized that unattainable, nonexistent
image of beauty.
Esther’s workshops helped me gain
a better understanding of my relationship with food,
and gave me useful tools to refocus my energy onto more
important and life-affirming things, improve my mood,
and make peace with my body.” |
| “I recently attended Esther
Kane's 'Making Peace with Food' workshops and found Esther
both honest and easy to listen to. In this weight-obsessed
world of ours, I found the information provided in the
workshops both thought provoking and extremely helpful.
Esther’s approach to making peace with food and
our bodies is applicable to all women, no matter what
age or size. I do not 'love my body' yet, however, I
find myself remembering things Esther taught us on a
daily basis and with time, I am confident that I will
learn to accept and love myself for who I am... she teaches
you how to do that.” |
Each of these informative, fun, and life-changing workshops
will cover a different aspect of healing from problematic relationships
with food and body image. In the two weeks, you will
learn:
- Why diets don’t work
- How to practise mindful eating
- How to improve your mood without food
- How to change your thinking about how you see and treat
food and your body
- How to transform self-hatred into self-love and
appreciation for the gift that is your body
“I got so much peace
of mind from attending Esther’s workshops. As
a busy working mother of two young children, it was
such a treat to do something just for me.
Being surrounded by other women with the same issues
I’d been
struggling with for so long was comforting because
I learned that I am not alone in this.
Esther helped
me realize that so much of what I struggle with has
very little to do with food and the size and shape
of my body; but is more about how I treat myself and
allow others to treat me. I gained valuable tools to
help me be kinder to myself, let go of having to be
perfect, and dealing with my emotions in healthy and
productive ways.” |
| “I enjoyed the workshops
because of the humour that Esther brought to what can
be a very serious subject for many women. I learned
to listen to my body. I now have a better understanding
of why we do what we do with food
and our bodies as women, and also how to
stop engaging
in those negative thoughts and behaviours.” |
