SLIM TALK was started by two women who decided they wanted to help people losing weight by learning WHY they overate. Many people begin gaining weight after a traumatic event such as an accident where they are in bed for a long time or a bereavement when they feel they can't cope. One of the founders ran a slimming club for many years in Kent and found that creative visualisation helped many of her members let go of the weight. The other founder in a hypnotherapist and counselor who had clients coming to her with emotional problems connected with food and their weight. Both these ladies have a great deal of experience with helping people with weight issues. Together they have developed a course that helps people to get in touch with their relationship with food and their body.
