Santa Barbara's Expert Weight Loss Counselor, Author And Speaker
Healing Conversation #426
— “Becoming your own best friend and learning how to “mother” and nurture yourself will lead the way out of emotional eating.”
Valeria Teles interviews Petra Beumer — a Counselor and Self-Care Expert, and also the founder of Mindful Eating Institute in Santa Barbara.
Petra holds a master’s degree in psychology from the University of Hamburg/Germany and has helped thousands of clients make positive lifestyle changes. She has dedicated herself to empowering clients in taking better care of themselves, both physically and emotionally.
Petra’s specialty areas are weight management, emotional eating and self-care, and in her work she combines cognitive-behavioral therapy with mindfulness strategies. Her “prescription” for wellness is: To love yourself deeply, to honor your needs and not ignore messages from your body. The goal is to set an intention for finding inner peace and treating yourself with love and self-compassion.
She is very passionate about teaching a daily practice of self-nurturing and not using food as a mood regulator. Her focus is on creating new healthy rituals that are sustainable in everyday life.
— This podcast is a quest for well-being, a quest for a meaningful life through the exploration of fundamental truths, enlightening ideas, insights on physical, mental, and spiritual health. The inspiration is Love. The aspiration is to awaken new ways of thinking that can lead us to a new way of being, being well.
