Mindful Eating Workshop
According to foodinsight.org more than 1 in 3 Americans are following a specific diet even though the success rate for dieting for weight loss is somewhere around 3-4%. Out of the people that lose weight most people will gain it back (and then some) within 3-5 years. I’m here to help change this story and teach about the practice of Intuitive Eating—A non diet approach to nutrition that helps women heal their relationship with food forever.
As women we place so much of our identity and self worth on what we eat and how we look and it affects how we show up in the world and in our workplace. In my Mindful Eating Workshop I help open up the floor to talk about these issues and give insight on how to accept the bodies that we have, while also feeling empowered around food.
About the Workshop
An hour lunch and learn, tailored to your organization’s needs, or a series of workshops that build on each other.
At a Mindful Eating Workshop participants learn how to change their unwanted habits with food, through the practice of Intuitive Eating.
When we tune out everything we’ve ever learned about nutrition and start listening to our bodies we will never struggle with food or negative eating habits, again.
What to expect
I share my story of overcoming a six year battle food and my body
We do a hands on practice with real food, where the participants will learn about the ‘hunger and fullness scale’, a number system to help them understand what hunger and fullness feels like in their bodies and how to honor the most natural cues near food without an ‘eating plan’.
Participants get an increased ability to navigate food at birthdays, holidays, and other people’s eating habits in the workplace and beyond.
When the participants walk out the door they come away with a budding confidence in their bodies to manage any situation with food without being on a diet. Even ice cream and cookies!
"Collaborating with Soshy Adelstein for my May Goals Hike was a beautiful mix of nature and real talk. Soshy spoke to the hikers with clear intention and actual tangible tools to explore that day on the mountain and later that day back in our real life. She was prepared, she was excited, and everyone loved the content. So much so that I had her back again the year to follow for a second collaboration! Give this woman a platform, you will love what she has to say to your mind and your body."

Body Image For Female Leaders
According to dosomething.org approximately 91% of women are unhappy with their bodies and resort to dieting to achieve their ideal body shape. Unfortunately poor body image is directly connected to low self esteem, confidence issues and affects how women show up in the world. It’s time we change that narrative.
"Body image" is the way that someone perceives their body and assumes that others perceive them. This image is often affected by family, friends, social pressure and the media. In this workshop we discuss the core reasons of why we have body image issues and what we can do about them so it doesn’t rob us of our full potential in life.

"It’s both my pleasure and honor to acknowledge Soshy for presenting a talk on positive body image and Intuitive Eating to a group of teen girls and their mothers. Soshy’s relaxed style and empathetic nature created a safe space for all the attendees to share openly and several women stayed after the event to share how her message personally impacted them in a positive way. She’s honest, genuine and someone I was proud to have at my event. I look forward to having Soshy at future Free To Be events as a speaker and highly recommend her to others looking for a positive influence for women of all ages."
