Eating Disorders in Sport

Hosted by: Fiona Sutherland & Shane Jeffrey

It’s widely understood that eating disorders are a significant issue within the athlete setting, across ages, sports and genders. Yet, Dietitians and other health professionals often feel ill-equipped to tackle some of the tricky presentations or situations which may arise.

By the end of this course, our aim is for you to leave significantly more confident in your ability to assess, educate, support and provide leadership to promote effective communication channels within your sporting setting, so you can effectively communicate & address eating disorders.

The course features 8 experts speaking about their specialist areas and 20 hours of videos, audios and downloadables you can take into your practice right away.

Body Image: The Missing Piece of Whole Body Healing

Hosted by: Fiona Sutherland & Marci Evans

NEW AND UPDATED 2022

As clinicians, we know that dieting and constantly driving to change the body harms people, and keeps them stuck in the merry-go-round of body-hating hell. Even well-intentioned and highly trained clinicians can do harm if they’re not sure of what to do, and can be drawn into people’s body distress and find ourselves backed into a corner. We also know that diet culture, Dr Google and the latest round of “wellness experts” can be noisy, and very seductive.

If you are looking to enhance your nutrition counseling skills and confidence when working with eating disorders, chronic dieting, and any condition that impacts how someone feels about their body, this is definitely the training you’ve been waiting for.

Mindful Eating Essentials

(Part 1 of Food-Body-Mind Series)

This webinar will step you through the core principles of Mindfulness and specifically how it relates to food & eating.

Objectives

• Develop a solid grounding & understanding of core Mindfulness principles

• Understand the how, when and why of Mindful Eating

• Identify what gets in the way - for our clients, and US!

• Identify how mindfulness principles intersect with the eating experience

• Participate in a Mindful Eating practice, & build confidence in taking it into practice

Exploring Appetite

(Part 2 of the Food-Body-Mind Series)

Many clients and patients struggle with their ability to understand and respond appropriately to their own natural body signals. This webinar will explore various ways you can discuss the ideas of hunger, fullness and satiety as 3 distinct, separate processes, and support your clients in taking charge of their response to honour their natural needs with respectful, individually-appropriate nutrition. This course is skills-based, with activities and resources that you can take into sessions straight away, if you wish.

Objectives

• How to present ideas of hunger, fullness and satiety to your clients as separate but interlinked processes

• How to use resources as an aid to support your clients to cultivate greater connections with their intuitive signals

• Looking beyond the "1-10" scale to more complex presentations and tricky situations

Food Cues

(Part 3 of the Food-Body-Mind Series)

It is common that people find themselves in cycles of blame, shame, guilt and self-criticism when it comes to food, and eating behaviours.This webinar/mini-workshop aims to support you to build skills in helping your clients shift long-held narratives around eating in ways which can enhance curiosity and compassion rather than shame and judgement. We will move through deepening your understanding about both internal and external cues, as well as how to facilitate these conversations with your clients. You will be stepped through from setting the foundation and starting the conversation right through to specific skill building for “stickier” longer-term change.

Objectives

• To support your clients to build confidence in understanding how food cues influence food choices, in ways which build compassion rather than blame.

• To build skills yourself in navigating tricky conversations around food cues without perpetuating diet culture ideas.

• To enhance your ability to “join the dots” and support clients to do the same in ways which facilitate healing.

Introduction to Health At Every Size (R) & Non Diet Approaches

Developed by Fiona Sutherland & Sarah Boykett

This course is perfect for anyone new - and curious - about weight inclusive paradigms and approaches. Stepping you through from research to practice, we highlight the most common tripping points and offer a ton of learning opportunities.

You'll see places where you're invited to pull out your pen and paper for some reflection, or notes, and other sections where you can sit back and just listen to the audios, or listen to the videos….

You may be feeling ready. Or totally confused. Wherever you sit, this is a course designed for you - the Dietetic student or new grad - in mind. This course aims to set a foundation from where you can have informed choice - either to pursue the next level of training (as live or online learning) or to press pause for now.
