News Release: It's Never Too Late A Three Day Seminar to End Emotional Eating
April 8 th, 9 th, and 10th 2005 from 10:00 am to 7:00 pm, The CEDRIC Centre, (Community Eating Disorders and Related Issues Counselling), is hosting its 3 day New Perspective Seminar , $374.50, at The Sandman Hotel Board Room, 2852 Douglas Street, Victoria, BC. To register: 1-250-383-0797. Aileen Pickard, 55, of Salmon Arm attended a CEDRIC Centre weekend workshop in April 2004, to end her fifty year struggle with emotional eating. Aileen says, "As a very young child I used food to escape. It was my best friend in a very unhappy, abusive childhood." "I found it very hard to trust and believe in what the counsellors at The Centre, said at times," says Pickard. "But I have not binged for months now, and that in itself is amazing. The weight is now sliding off." According to Michelle Morand, Founder and Director of The CEDRIC Centre, Aileen's story is a typical one. "Many of our cleints have spent years trying to treat their unblanced relationship with food by using diets, only to find they gain more weight, and become more unhappy with their bodies." "At our three day Seminar," says Morand, "we help women get to the root of their emotional eating. We help them see that food is not the problem. And we help them deal directly with what is. This seminar is a perfect fit for people who identify they have issues with food, but don't necessarilly fit into the categroy of a clinical eating disorder." The CEDRIC Centre specializes in the treatment of clinical eating disorders and related issues such as anxiety, depression, and distorted body image. They also work with men and women of all ages who have food and body issues that don't meet the clinical criterion for eating disorders, but nevertheless, negatively impact the lives of thousands of men and women.
