"I tried a million different things before. This was literally LIFE CHANGING." - Kathleen, MI

You don’t need more willpower. You need to understand why the plans haven’t worked. (read about why nothing has worked)

If you’ve made it here, you probably already know how to eat healthy.

You’re likely pretty well-versed in it.But for some reason, you keep falling into the same cycle: eating well for a while, then falling off track.

You start to wonder,“Why can’t I figure this out? What am I missing?”Here’s the truth: it’s not your fault.

You’re relying on a strategy that may have worked temporarily, but is no longer effective and taking away your self trust.

People are coming to realize that knowing how to eat healthy isn't enough.And studies are backing it.

Research estimates that 85–95% of diets and nutrition plans fail long term. (1)So we’re told that we just need more discipline to stick to it.

But more discipline never comes.

The real path forward isn’t about restriction, writing down everything you eat, or having accountability partners...

Because knowing how to eat healthy is only a small part of what drives your food choices.

How this is different (read about this new approach)

While most programs focus on controlling what you eat and trying harder, we take a different approach. Instead, we focus on deepening the relationship with your own body to learn how to work with and trust its signals.

The techniques are from the Mastering Mindfulness™ Methodology. This is an inside-out approach that empowers individuals to transform their relationship with food, health, and themselves. It focuses on using the power of mindfulness and self awareness as a tool to build self trust. We also provide a deeper understanding of why conventional approaches haven’t worked.

These techniques have been featured at academic universities, world renowned health spas, and well respected global conferences.

Trusting yourself with food starts from within.

Meet Your Guides

Hi, I'm Gina Worful, MS, RD

I'm a classically trained registered dietitian with a masters degree in human nutrition.

For a long time, I followed all the traditional rules around food and health, but something wasn’t clicking for me or my clients. I was trying so hard to be healthy, but it felt like something was missing.

That’s when I started digging deeper into human behavior and how our relationship with food mirrors the relationship we have with ourselves. What I discovered changed everything.

Now, rather than giving people food rules, I teach a new approach that helps people experience confidence not by forcing change, but by building a better connection with themselves and their bodies.

Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to teach these methods at universities, global conferences, and some of the world’s leading health centers.

It’s been a journey, but I’m so excited to share what I’ve learned and see how it transforms the way we approach health.

Frequently Asked Questions

I've tried so many programs already, how is this program different from other health or diet programs?

This program is not about following another plan or set of rules—it’s about shifting the way you think about food, your body, and your health. Most programs focus on what to eat; we focus on why things feel hard in the first place and how to create a lasting sense of ease and alignment. This approach works from the inside out, helping you address the root causes of what’s kept you stuck.

What if I’m too busy to keep up with the program?

This program is designed to fit into your life, not overwhelm it. With weekly live sessions and simple at-home practices, you’ll have the flexibility to go at your own pace. The tools you’ll learn are ones you can use every day, even in small moments, to create meaningful shifts over time.

What if I can’t make it to every live session?

Don’t worry! All live sessions are recorded, so you can catch up whenever it works for you. Plus, the at-home practices and community support ensure you stay connected and on track, even if you miss a session.

What if I’m unsure about making the investment?

This program is designed to give you more than just short-term results. It’s an investment in learning skills and mindsets that you can rely on for the rest of your life. We also believe so much in the quality of this course that we are happy to take all the risk and offer a money back guarantee.

Will this program require me to share personal things with others?

While this program invites you to explore your relationship with food, your body, and yourself, you’re always in control of how much you share. The live sessions are supportive and focused on learning and reflection, and you’ll have private at-home practices for deeper self-exploration.

Does this program include meal plans or food rules?

Not at all! This program isn’t about restriction or dieting. Instead, it’s about learning to trust yourself with food and make choices that feel aligned with your body and your needs—without guilt or fear.

Do I need to have experience with mindfulness to join? What if I'm not good at it?

Not at all! This program is designed to meet you where you are. Whether you’re new to mindfulness or have some experience, you’ll be guided step-by-step to develop tools that feel accessible and practical in your daily life.

What if I don’t struggle with cravings or emotional eating?

This program is about much more than cravings. It’s designed to help you develop a stronger relationship with yourself, uncover patterns you may not even realize are holding you back, and approach health with ease and confidence. Whether cravings are an issue or not, you’ll learn tools that can benefit every area of your life.

Will this program be emotionally overwhelming?

This program is designed to feel supportive, not overwhelming. While it invites you to explore deeper patterns and beliefs, everything is done at your own pace and with gentle guidance. You’ll always have the tools and resources you need to feel grounded and safe throughout the process.

How do I know if this will work? What if I'm afraid I'll fail?

This program isn’t about achieving perfection—it’s about learning and growing. There’s no way to “fail” here because every step of the journey offers valuable insights about yourself. If something feels challenging, it’s simply an opportunity to uncover patterns, beliefs, or habits you may not have noticed before. This program is designed to meet you where you are and give you the tools to move forward in a way that feels meaningful and right for you. As long as you’re willing to show up and explore, you’ll experience progress in ways that last.
