We hit the gym every day...until we miss one afternoon...and then another...and then another. We deprive ourselves of our favorite foods only to be invited to a holiday party where resisting temptation is nearly impossible... Join Erin Jewell as she introduces a new <span class="gmail-il">approach</span> to your <span class="gmail-il">health</span> that focuses less on militant <span class="gmail-il">diet</span> and exercise and more on actively connecting with your body. Learn how to reframe your focus from negative thoughts about <span class="gmail-il">eating</span> and exercise to finding satisfaction with some of your favorite foods and enjoyment of how your body moves.
