Health and nutrition advice is everywhere - and yet we’re becoming more confused and less healthy every year.

Despite the billions of dollars poured into all kinds of programs to keep us healthy, traditional approaches to food and body challenges simply don’t work.

There have been no clear answers to sustainable weight loss, or to the challenges so many people experience around body image, binge eating, emotional eating, endless dieting, constant food worry, or feeling trapped in a food prison.

An unbelievable 99% of those who diet gain back the weight they lose within a year…

And that’s not even the

worst part.

Nine out of ten women are unhappy with their appearance - and our children are developing the same body image and eating challenges as we are, with 80% of 10-year-old girls experiencing a fear of being fat.

We’re becoming more confused about what and how to eat, how to overcome our disordered eating, and how to heal nutrition-linked illnesses related to digestion, immunity, fatigue, and mood concerns.

Still, there’s no shortage of superficial, basic food philosophies that promise much and deliver little - and we just keep finding ourselves in the same old, frustrated place.

side-circle3

Our entire approach to eating challenges is seriously flawed

Because we’re focused on the food on our plate instead of our eating psychology.

IPE - TYRWF Sales Page Build V2-68
That’s where the Institute for the Psychology of Eating is

different.

Rooted in the groundbreaking field of Dynamic Eating Psychology, we recognize that eating challenges are intimately linked to nutrition, but they can’t be solved by nutrition alone.

Eating challenges are connected to all of what makes us human: relationships, family, work, sexuality, spirituality, and ultimately, our search for fulfillment - and it all starts with the mind. If we’re to truly heal our food and body challenges, we must focus on transforming the psychological patterns that cause these issues in the first place.

Through this Training, you’ll learn to understand concerns with food and body NOT as an indication that we’re broken, but as a powerful opportunity to grow and evolve. This is an eating psychology for everyone - and as a Certified Mind Body Eating Coach, you’ll be able to apply lessons from this field to help real people solve their food and body issues.

If you’re seeking an opportunity to make real, lasting change - in your life and the lives of others - our combination of valuable insights and outstanding student support will help you find it.

So...

Are you ready to transform your passion for nutrition and personal growth into a rewarding career as a Mind Body Eating Coach?

Why study

with IPE?

We don’t do COOKIE-CUTTER. 

When coaches focus on diet and nutrition without getting to the root of each client’s unique concerns, the same challenges will tend to present themselves again and again. That’s not our style.

The Institute for the Psychology of Eating is the only school in the world that teaches an eating psychology designed for everyone who eats - one that creates lasting transformation and healing in people’s lives.

We work with the secret ingredient missing from so many traditional approaches:

Dynamic Eating Psychology.

– Noun

A positive and transformational approach to our relationship with food that sees every challenge we face with eating as an opportunity to grow and transform.

In a

nutshell

It's a system of maps, tools, skills and protocols that are designed to help you understand your food story, and finally break free from unwanted eating concerns.

Eating Psychology is the key to conquering battles like weight, emotional eating, overeating, binge eating, body image, endless dieting, and all of the related health consequences.

IPE - TYRWF Sales Page Build V2_Right 05-68
side-circle3

Here’s a secret

that other health coach certifications won’t tell you:

You can’t fix eating challenges using nutrition alone.

Is nutrition important? Of course, and that’s why we teach our own unique approach called Mind Body Nutrition (MBN).

IPE - Mind Body Sales Page V3 - Mockups Full-10

But trying to transform food and body challenges with nutrition alone is a recipe for frustration. You can give your clients diet advice and nutrition protocols all day, but if you don’t address their psychology, they’ll never see real and lasting change. That’s because food and body challenges arise from the mind. They come from the thoughts, feelings, and beliefs we have about food, our bodies, ourselves, and the world around us.

It’s high time that we stop looking at the food on our plates to heal the issues in our mind.

The Mind Body Eating Coach Certification Training teaches you how to identify the psychological, emotional, and spiritual causes of your clients’ food and body challenges, and how to work with their unique eating psychology.

IPE - Mind Body Sales Page V3 - Mockups-02

With this approach (and over 35 years of research and clinical practice) as a foundation, we put current findings and research from neuroscience, psychology and nutrition into practice, and train our practitioners to catalyze much-needed breakthroughs with their clients.

Our groundbreaking Mind Body Eating Coach Certification Training is the most advanced certification training of its kind, including everything you need to build a dream career helping others overcome food and body challenges.

What’s more, the learning process our coaches go through is just as powerful as the one-of-a-kind education we deliver. Our team is here to support you throughout the training and make sure you get the full benefit of every piece of wisdom and information you consume, from the application of our eating psychology to the nuances of working with clients.

side-circle2

You’ll learn time-tested, results-oriented coaching techniques that will make you truly effective as a practitioner.

You’ll discover how to inspire your clients to follow through with your recommendations - how to uncover the root causes of their challenges and help them get unstuck.

And the results will be nothing short of

magical.

Who am I, and why should you listen to me?

My name is

Marc David.

I’m the Founder and lead faculty member of the Institute for the Psychology of Eating in beautiful Boulder, Colorado.

I’m a teacher and consultant in Eating Psychology and the author of the bestselling books Nourishing Wisdom and The Slow Down Diet, which have now been translated into more than 10 languages.

For over three decades, I’ve been an innovator in eating psychology and nutrition. I got into this work because, as a young child, I was profoundly unhealthy, to such an extent that I nearly died. This experience led me on a search to heal my body, which started my love affair with nutrition (at the tender age of 5!).

As a young man, I absorbed every piece of wisdom I could from the health universe, and went on to develop an extensive background in clinical nutrition, eating psychology, and different healing modalities.

Since then...

I’ve personally logged many thousands of hours working with people just like you over the last 35 years in a full range of nutrition and food challenges:

Weight concerns

Body image struggles

Overeating

Binge eating

Emotional eating

Endless dieting

Weight loss resistance

Eating disorders

Digestive issues

Mood concerns

Fatigue

Immunity

And more.

I founded the Institute as a way to channel my passion into an uplifting and results-driven approach to the increasing number of eating and nutrition-linked challenges facing us all. To this day, it's the only place you can find a solid education in these revolutionary approaches.

I’ve held senior consulting positions at Canyon Ranch Resorts, the Johnson & Johnson Corporation, the Disney Company, and the Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health.

I’ve also served on the editorial board of Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine and presented at a long list of professional settings, including Harvard University, the Institute for Functional Medicine, and The National Institute for the Clinical Application of Behavioral Medicine.

I’ve originated two unique new approaches –

Dynamic Eating Psychology and
Mind Body Nutrition

– and now I’m excited to share them with you as a future Mind Body Eating Coach.

Struggling to decide between health coaching and life coaching?

Now,

you don’t have to…

One of the unique aspects of our training is that it sits at the nexus point between health and life coaching.

What do we mean by this?

Well, if you’re currently a health coach, dietitian, nutritionist, fitness professional, or a medical professional, it’s likely you spend a lot of time coaching clients on what to do. Depending on your profession, this might include looking at the kind of diet they should be eating, the exercise program that’s best for them, or the type of medication regimen or treatment protocol they need. And that’s good and important work, but it can get pretty frustrating at times.

side-circle2

If you’ve been practicing for any length of time, you’ve likely found that clients struggle to implement the well-meaning changes you coach them through,

and for good reason:
IPE - TYRWF Sales Page Build-44

There’s a universe of thoughts, beliefs, feelings, and life experiences getting in your clients’ way.

IPE - TYRWF Sales Page Build-42

There’s also a constellation of other factors - including their career, finances, relationships, sexuality, stress, life obligations, and so much more - that can impede their progress.

IPE - TYRWF Sales Page Build-39

On the surface, these seem to have nothing to do with food and body.

IPE - TYRWF Sales Page Build-43

But when you look deeper, you'll find that so many seemingly unrelated things are actually closely interwoven with your clients’ eating challenges.

So in order to effectively transform eating concerns, we’ve got to look at the full picture. We must look beyond diet and nutrition to other areas of life.

Because when we do that, a whole new
world opens up for them.

Then...

what exactly is the workday of a Mind Body Eating Coach like?

As a Mind Body Eating Coach, you’re armed with the tools and information to address your clients’ nutritional needs as well as the wisdom to work with their psychology.

On any given day, you might see clients in a range of vastly different life circumstances.

Sales - Side-Elements_Snake 02 - 25

You might find yourself assisting a woman in her mid-50s to address metabolic dysfunction resulting from work-related stress and overwhelm.

That conversation might cover the gamut of meal timing and macronutrient balance, as well as her challenges with her boss and the grief she’s experiencing from her current divorce.

Sales - Side-Elements_Snake 02 - 50's

You might have a consultation with a 25-year-old woman with a history of trauma who’s been binge eating since her teens.

That could take you down any number of pathways, including working on her self-esteem and self-love, or exploring the parental neglect she experienced as a child. You also might work to help her identify strategies for nourishing herself well during the day so she’s less likely to binge at night.

Sales-Side-Elements-V3_Snake-03-60s-01-01

Or you might work with a 65-year-old who has been dieting for 40 years, and still wants to lose that last 20 pounds.

You might be to help her take a temporary break from dieting. Instead, you help her identify areas of her life that have gone unfulfilled and help her put more focus on the life she wants. You might bring in a conversation around eating more healthy fats and protein into her diet, and coach her through any anxiety around eating more calories, not less.

side-circle4

If you give me 100 different clients with the same eating challenge, there will be 100 different causes for it - and those causations lie in a rich tapestry of nutrition, biology, psychophysiology, emotions, and spirituality.

What does this mean for you as a

coach?

That your work is dynamic, deep, and profound...

That you get to go to all kinds of fascinating and varied places with your clients…

And that your clients have the benefit of the FULL complement of tools they need to finally transform their food and body challenges.

Which creates the kinds of breakthroughs they deserve, and empowers them to move past the prison they’ve been locked in, and on to a life they truly love.

So...

what do we cover
in the course?

You’ll get everything you need to transform your own relationship with food and establish a rewarding career as a Mind Body Eating Coach, including…

IPE - TYRWF Sales Page Build V2-61

Weight

Through the lens of Dynamic Eating Psychology and Mind Body Nutrition, you’ll learn our fascinating approach to weight and its loss - and, as always, it begins in the mind. One of our key principles for weight loss is that in order to ask the body to change, you have to first be in your body. This is embodiment, and it’s a core concept we teach in the Training. You’ll learn basic and advanced coaching and counseling techniques to shed new light on this complex challenge.

IPE - TYRWF Sales Page Build V2-59

Body image

Many of us privately battle with our body image and would be shocked to learn just how common body image issues are. With an inspiring, surprising, and results-oriented approach to body image and self-esteem challenges, you’ll help others see and experience their bodies in a healthier, more compassionate way. We cover the practical tools and strategies to help your clients finally have the breakthrough they’ve been looking for.

IPE - TYRWF Sales Page Build V2-60

Overeating, binge eating, emotional eating

This triad of eating challenges can have a number of physiological, psychological, and emotional causes. We’ll teach you how to evaluate the unique client in front of you, and help you understand the key patterns that perpetuate these challenges. With our truly holistic approach, you’ll be able to create life-changing breakthroughs using easy-to-practice tools and techniques that promote a positive and nourishing relationship with food.

IPE - TYRWF Sales Page Build V2-69

Endless dieting

If you’ve been working as a health coach or practitioner, you’ve likely worked with clients who are long-term dieters - to the tune of 10, 20, 30, 40 or more years of dieting! These are intelligent people who know, at some level, that gimmicky styles of dieting don’t work, but just can’t figure out what to do differently. You’ll learn to identify and work to solve chronic dieting, a hidden contributor to deeper emotional pain and compounding health symptoms that is frequently misdiagnosed or incorrectly treated.

IPE - TYRWF Sales Page Build V2-62

Energy and fatigue

While many common strategies to battle fatigue leave us feeling even more exhausted, here you’ll master an integrative mind, body, heart, and soul approach to combating lack of energy and its long-term physical consequences. Using tools and protocols from Mind Body Nutrition and Dynamic Eating Psychology, you’ll learn a fascinating new way to work with this important challenge.

IPE - TYRWF Sales Page Build V2-63

Digestive health

In the quest to alleviate digestive distress, heartburn, bloating and discomfort, you’ll learn simple, effective strategies for increasing digestive power and function. Equally important, you’ll learn how to help anyone empower their digestive system and turn it into a powerful support for their overall health and weight.

IPE - TYRWF Sales Page Build V2-64

Mood concerns

As mood is a crucial health indicator, you’ll gain practical, holistic and effective solutions that show how fluctuations in mood are actually calling attention to the key lifestyle and metabolic changes our bodies are crying out for. Our mood can be powerfully impacted by food, and by our inner world. When you work on nutritional AND emotional levels with your client, mood concerns can finally be transformed.

IPE - TYRWF Sales Page Build V2-70

Immune health

A strong immune system is both a gift and a rarity these days, so you’ll learn to navigate a toxic and challenging world with greater ease and pass that knowledge on to promote healthy immune function for all. Immune health is certainly influenced by food - and you’ll learn the best dietary strategies to boost immune function. You’ll also learn the powerful mind-body-immune connection, and how your client’s personal world influences their immune health.

IPE - TYRWF Sales Page Build V2-66

Coaching skills

You’ll learn tools, techniques, protocols and strategies that will make you a trusted practitioner, and one who truly makes a difference for your clients as you guide them into a new relationship with food. Our coaching and counseling tools are potent and results-oriented, and will give you the confidence you need to be a skilled practitioner.
