Compensare con il cibo quando si è stressati è una tendenza di molti. Avere i sensi di colpa per aver mangiato troppo e/o male lo è altrettanto. Avere un corpo da modella non e´ l’obbiettivo, piuttosto mantenersi sani e sentirsi in armonia con il proprio corpo. Come risolvere questo circolo vizioso che col tempo porta ad un maggiore stress e malsana nutrizione?

In questo incontro si parlerà di MINDFULNESS e MINDFUL EATING, un approccio pratico ed efficace per far fronte a questo tipo di difficoltà` che integrato dalla pratica di yoga e meditazione porta ottimi risultati!

Dalla ragazza sportiva alla donna in menopausa, da chi ha problemi con insulina a chi soffre di PCOS, e chi di problemi non ne ha affatto, c’e´ qualcosa che spesso accomuna tutti questi casi: trovare conforto nel cibo.

Se hai provato tante diete ma sei insoddisfatta dei risultati, se non ti piaci/accetti ma ti rifiuti di metterti a dieta perchè ti piace mangiare allora questo workshop fa per te!

La biologa e nutrizionista specializzata Monica Antoniucci e Martina Trabucco, istruttrice certificata a livello internazionale di yoga zen e meditazione, vi guideranno mediante esercizi pratici ed interattivi, per ritrovare una connessione con il proprio corpo e riconoscere i segnali che ci invia. Lo scopo e´ quello di imparare come raggiungere il vostro benessere.

Nello specifico si parlerà di:

Accettazione e consapevolezza del proprio corpo
Cibi buoni vs Cibi cattivi: i sensi di colpa
Senso di fame e sazietà, come riconoscerli
Raggiungere il proprio peso/forma mangiando intuitivamente con esempi di un’alimentazione bilanciata e cucita su di te.
Tra un argomento e l’altro faremo degli esercizi di yoga e meditazione per imparare a gestire lo stress nel modo più salutare possibile. Dulcis in fundo, concluderemo il nostro seminario con una pratica di rilassamento guidata!

Fai pace col cibo e con te stessa/o, saremo liete di mostrarti come!

La dott.ssa Monica Antoniucci è una biologo nutrizionista formatasi a Roma presso l’università di Tor Vergata con il massimo dei voti nel 2012. Successivamente ha frequentato un master in dietetica e nutrizione ed aperto il suo studio privato nel 2014 a Roma. Da poco ha aperto una studio a Berlino dove ora esercita regolarmente. Monica è specializzata in diete personalizzate per la perdita di peso, situazioni cliniche quali squilibri ormonali, tiroiditi, insulino-resistenza, disturbi gastro-intestinali e nutre una passione particolare per la nutrizione sportiva. Si è avvicinata al mondo del Non-diet approach e mindful eating proveniente dagli stati uniti negli ultimi 2 anni, constatando che di fatto la dieta non può portare ad un successo concreto e duraturo se si hanno problemi di relazione col cibo. La fame da stress o emozionale è un problema che riguarda la stragrande maggioranza dei suoi pazienti e con i quali lavora molto per portarli ad uno stile di vita di sano, mantenendo la forma fisica, dove tutto è concesso ma con consapevolezza di quello che fa veramente bene non solo allo stato fisico ma soprattutto a quello mentale.

Compensating with food when stressed is a tendency of many. Feeling guilty about eating too much and / or badly is just as usual. Having a top model-body is not the goal, but rather to stay healthy and feel in harmony with your own body. How to solve this vicious circle that over time leads to a greater accumulation of stress and discomfort?

During this seminary we will talk about MINDFULNESS and MINDFUL EATING, an effective practice to cope with this type of difficulty that integrated with the practice of yoga and meditation brings excellent results!

From the sporty girl to the menopausal woman, from those who have problems with insulin to those who suffer from PCOS and those who have no problems at all, there is something that often brings all these cases together: falling back into compensating with food.

If you have tried so many diets but are dissatisfied with the results, if you do not like / accept and refuse to go on a diet because you like to eat then this workshop is for you!

The specialist biologist and nutritionist Monica Antoniucci and Martina Trabucco, internationally certified yoga and meditation yoga instructor, will guide you through practical and interactive exercises, to find a connection with your body and recognize the signals it sends us. The purpose is to learn how to reach your well-being.

In details, we will talk about:

Acceptance and awareness of one’s body
Good foods vs Bad foods: feelings of guilt
Sense of hunger and satiety, how to recognize them
Achieve your weight / shape by intuitively eating with examples of balanced nutrition and stitched on you

Between one topic and another we will practice yoga and meditation exercises to learn how to manage stress and anxiety in the healthiest way possible. Last but not least, we will conclude our seminar with a guided relaxation practice!

Make peace with food and meet yourself at ease, we will be happy to show you how!

DURATION  3hours

COSTS 40€ per person, if you bring a friend the second ticket is 20€

Monica Antoniucci is a nutritionist biologist trained in Rome at the University of Tor Vergata with honors in 2012. Subsequently she attended a master’s degree in dietetics and nutrition and opened her private studio in 2014 in Rome. She recently opened a studio in Berlin where she now practices regularly. Monica is specializds in customized diets for weight loss, clinical situations such as hormonal imbalances, thyroiditis, insulin resistance, gastro-intestinal disorders and nourishes a particular passion for sports nutrition. She has approached the world of the Non-diet approach and mindful eating from the United States over the past 2 years, noting that in fact the diet cannot lead to a concrete and lasting success if there are problems with the relationship with food. Stress or emotional hunger is a problem that concerns the vast majority of its patients and with whom it works a lot to bring them to a healthy lifestyle, maintaining physical fitness, where everything is allowed but with awareness of what it really does good not only in the physical state but above all in the mental state.
