The Approach
Keeping It Fun Excerpt from a live interview about my education at Integrative Nutrition; click here to hear the interview Max Sense of Self offers a program uniquely different from any diet you may have encountered in the past. The program is designed to meet your personal interests and individual needs. No one diet is suited for all: There is no single way of eating that is right for everyone. We will focus on finding the healthiest food and lifestyle choices to suit your specific needs. Most diets today do not recognize the individuality of our bodies and lifestyles. Your age, your level of physical activity, the rate of your metabolism, your body’s natural size and shape, even your ancestry plays a role in your bio-individuality. This is why we look at all diets; taking out of each of them what may be true and right for you.  Excerpt from a live interview about my education at Integrative Nutrition; click here to hear the interview Taking it slow: Unlike other programs, you are not expected to change your eating habits all at once. Sudden deprivation and denial does not work. Applying drastic shifts is difficult to sustain because they cause food cravings and eating habits to be repressed. The more these cravings are repressed, the more powerful they become; eventually causing people to “fall off the diet wagon.” Quick fixes do not help you achieve life-long health and happiness. Based on your needs, we will gradually introduce new and healthful foods and activities into your lifestyle. As you start to feel better, these healthy habits will naturally remain with you, and will crowd out the less healthful ones. Everything is food: In our holistic approach to health, body and soul are linked. Fun, excitement, a love of life; these are the driving forces of well being. With that, food becomes secondary. If you are depressed or your self-esteem is low, you may adopt unhealthy habits to alleviate or suppress your true hungers in life.You eat, but are not satisfied. We often look in the refrigerator when all we really want is a hug or someone to talk to. The primary foods nourish us, but they don't come on a plate. Finding greater spiritual purpose, being inspired by your career, enjoying physical activity, feeling fulfilled in your relationships _ these are the primary foods. If you are unsatisfied, you may be eating in unhealthy ways to alleviate or suppress your true hungers. When the mind suffers, so does the body. But a healthy body can also help alleviate the suffering of the mind. Once you start to feel more vitality and health, other areas of your life improve such as relationships, career and creativity. You will naturally begin to crave the foods and activities that make you feel better, and you will discover more motivation to make time for the truly important things in life.

I have unsuccessfully tried many weight loss programs in the past. Daniel has supported me in turning my attention towards living a healthier life rather than fighting my weight. Once I learned how to let go of the fight, the weight has been steadily coming off. --JP Within three months I have stopped craving sweets, my energy levels are higher than ever, my relationships have improved both at home and at work. I hadn’t realized how much these realms were taking a toll on my diet and energy. Daniel has helped me address the core issues rather than just address the symptoms. --James Within two months I've stopped thinking of unhealthy food as a comfort in times of stress or sadness. I've finally made the connection between what I eat and how I feel. If I'm feeling bad about a hard day at work, the last thing I want to do is eat food that will make be feel tired and unwell. Unlike other dietary changes I have made in the past, I am confident that I'm making life-changing choices and forming life-long habits.  I am making choices that will make me healthier and happier and being guided all the time by Daniel, who is fun, forgiving, comforting, honest, knowledgeable about food and cooking, and incredibly wise. --Erin R
