Amy Bondar
I think the main obstacle that people have is that for so many years, we've approached nutrition for weight loss. And we really just thought about using food as a way to use lose weight. And I believe that food is so much more than that, right?
Amy Bondar
what we're missing is that exploration, we go into shaming, guilt about eating it, and veering off our nutritional path, but we're not doing the work. We're not doing the work to resolve the stresses and conflicts so that we're not constantly repeating that pattern of going back to food.
Amy Bondar 29:43
I just think food is meant to be enjoyed. And it's really here to give us the energy and vitality to do what we love every single day of our lives. And when we can get to the place where we're nourishing from there, then will forever change our relationship with food.
