Why try this no sugar challenge?
Get your brain back: stop the food ruminations and the addictive cycles and find inner peace and calm.
Have more energy: after an initial detox period that’s going to feel weird, you’ll find you have more energy more consistently.
No body shaming: this is not a get-slim-quick scheme. This is slow, trauma-informed, empathy and compassion-based wellness.
Lessons you can apply to all areas of your life: emotion regulation, communication, habit change, and more.
Feel accomplished: we feel good when we accomplish hard things! Set your mind to it, join the group, and wait to see how good you feel in 8 weeks when you did it!
Feel supported: this group provides positive coaching and facilitation by Alison and positive community support by the group.
Try something new: it’s an experiment—see what happens! See how you feel!
Get the motivation to get back on track with healthy habits after a stressful pandemic.
