What Mindfulness Dieters say…

"When I eat mindfully I enjoy and notice the flavors of the food more and ultimately eat less. I found this true particularly when I have 'sweet' cravings! Thank you so much!"

"I'm seeing huge progress in reconnecting to my body and what it feels like to have eaten too much."

"I've lost about 10 pounds without of lot of pain – just making healthy choices."

"There have been several days now that I'm mindful and choosing not to overeat! I've also been making more of a connection with how my body feels – and noticing how much better it feels without the cookies."

"The Mindfulness Diet has slowed me down and I feel like preparing dinner in a more leisurely way, and am able to eat more mindfully. Consequently, the evening snacking is lessening."

"I am getting more patient and mindful in my approach to myself and my relationship to food."

"My wife told me that since I began The Mindfulness Diet, the sizes of my portions have been cut in half and I eat much more slowly."

"I lost 7 pounds and changed my views about eating in a very stress-free, beneficial way."

"Each Mindfulness Diet exercise brings something new."

"I have not eaten the same way since learning to eat mindfully."

"The Mindfulness Diet course was a life-changing experience! For five decades I have craved and eaten far too many sweets. My weight and self-esteem suffered. I would eat fabulous whole foods, grown by local, sustainable farmers at every meal. Yet, for some unexplained reason, I would eat large quantities of sweets, regardless of how full my tummy was! The Mindfulness Diet has enabled me to focus on the moment, to be present with my feelings. I am recognizing the reasons I crave sweets and no longer crave them. For the first time in my memory I do not think about food! I have a sense of calm and peacefulness as I go about my day. I feel engaged in my daily activities and am fulfilled by them. In short, I feel happy, peaceful, calm and satisfied."

"Doug, I'd like to say that I think you are a wonderful teacher. It is truly a gift to teach others any discipline. So many people in life may be content experts and/or exhibit enthusiasm for an area—but being able to teach it to others is indeed rare."

What students in Doug's live mindfulness classes say:

"It has begun a transformation in my life that I did not expect."

"[Doug] exudes a peaceful mindfulness that inspires me to continue practicing."

"Doug is very knowledgeable on the topic but is great at explaining to novices."

"The course has, already in significant ways, changed me. I see myself more clearly; I am, for the first time, hopeful (even confident) that I can learn to be an effective meditator, and I can see that my perceptions of others are deeper and more helpful to me in my dealings with them. I loved this class. Doug is an outstanding teacher."

"The best and most important class I have ever taken."

"Please continue to offer this course, it has been thoroughly enjoyable and unbelievably informative. It is definitely one of the best classes I have ever taken."

"Doug's guidance in meditation was great."

"Doug really pushed for self-discovery through the course material and openly welcomed discussion. I never felt like I was being judged for what I had to say."

"I loved this course and felt that I grew a lot personally and spiritually."

"The strongest aspect was the knowledge gained about myself and the world around me that was found by being present. The experiences and discussions in class and the time spent in meditation were extremely helpful to finding this all out, and would not be traded. I have learned a great deal."

"The most influential class I took this spring, and the most relevant to life. This is what a learning environment should be."
