Specific Food or Drink Elimination Session
When you are genuinely ready to let that one thing go
You can know that something is not helping you, decide you want to stop having it, and still find yourself thinking about it, craving it or reaching for it almost automatically.
Sometimes it is not simply hunger.
There can be emotions, habits, associations and subconscious patterns connected to a particular food or drink.
My Specific Food or Drink Elimination Session is a focused session designed to work with those emotional and subconscious patterns, with Emotion Code at the core of the work.
The purpose of the session is elimination rather than simply cutting down, so it is important that you are genuinely ready to let your chosen food or drink go.
Who is this session for?
This session may be suitable if you:
-
Feel strongly drawn towards one particular food or drink
-
Regularly crave the same thing even though you have decided you no longer want it
-
Feel that a particular food or drink has become an automatic habit
-
Associate it with comfort, reward, stress, boredom or certain situations
-
Find yourself thinking about it far more than you would like
-
Feel genuinely ready to remove it from your life
It may also be useful if you are reducing or coming off GLP-1 medication under the guidance of your prescriber and are concerned about old cravings, food noise or previous eating patterns returning.
This session does not change or replace your medical treatment. It focuses specifically on the emotional and subconscious response to a food or drink you have chosen to eliminate.
Choose exactly what you are ready to eliminate
This session focuses on one clearly defined food or drink at a time.
It is designed for non-essential foods or drinks that you feel are not supporting your health, wellbeing or goals.
The important part is that we clearly define exactly what you are choosing before the session begins.
If you choose one particular drink, we work specifically with that drink.
If you choose chocolate as a whole, you need to be ready to let chocolate go as a whole category, including foods containing chocolate.
This is an elimination session, rather than a session designed simply to help you cut down.
It is not designed to eliminate nutritious foods or essential food groups.
Most importantly, you need to feel genuinely ready to let your chosen food or drink go before we begin.
You might choose something very specific, such as:
-
A particular energy drink
-
A specific fizzy drink
-
A particular chocolate product
-
A certain type of crisps
-
A particular snack or sweet
Or you may decide that you are ready to eliminate a wider category, such as:
-
Chocolate
-
Crisps
-
Sweets
-
Biscuits
How does the session work?
At the beginning of the process, we establish your current response to your chosen food or drink.
We may look at:
How strong the urge or desire currently feels
What tends to happen before you reach for it
How you feel while eating or drinking it
How you feel afterwards
Emotional triggers or associations connected to it
You will rate your current urge or desire so we have a clear starting point.
I then use Emotion Code to explore and release trapped emotional energy and emotional patterns that may be connected to your response.
Where appropriate, I can also explore wider emotional associations and patterns that come forward during the session.
We then retest your response and incorporate positive emotional integration around the change you have chosen to make.
What is Emotion Code?
Emotion Code is an energy based technique used to identify and release what practitioners describe as trapped emotional energy.
Rather than approaching the problem purely through willpower, the session explores whether emotional patterns or associations may be contributing to the pull towards your chosen food or drink.
The conscious decision comes from you.
You have already decided that you are ready to let it go.
My role is to work with the emotional and subconscious patterns that may be sitting underneath that response.
Working with a blank canvas
Integrity is incredibly important to me, and I am known for working with a blank canvas.
I do not need your entire life history before we begin.
I will ask enough to understand what you have chosen to eliminate, what you currently experience around it and what you would like to change.
From there, I follow what comes forward during the session rather than trying to make the work fit what I have already been told.
For me, this is an important part of keeping the work clear, neutral, honest and authentic.
Face to face or remote proxy sessions
This session is available face to face in Desborough or remotely through proxy work.
If we work face to face, we will go through the questions, urge rating and emotional patterns together as part of the session.
If you choose a remote proxy session, I will ask you a short series of questions beforehand so I have the information I need about your chosen food or drink, your current response to it and what you would like to change.
I will then carry out the Emotion Code work remotely and provide you with a written summary afterwards.
Whichever option you choose, the focus remains the same:
One clearly defined food or drink that you are genuinely ready to eliminate.
Over 20 years of understanding food behaviour
I have worked within the weight loss industry for over 20 years, supporting thousands of people through the practical, emotional and behavioural side of changing their relationship with food.
And one thing those years have taught me is this:
Knowing that you want to stop something and actually feeling free from the pull towards it are two very different things.
For some people, there can be much more sitting underneath a particular craving or habit than simply liking the taste.
This session allows us to focus specifically on that.

One focused session
This service is designed as a focused one-off session rather than a programme of multiple appointments.
Every person responds differently and no particular outcome can be guaranteed.
If, at a later stage, there is another food or drink you genuinely want to eliminate, that would be treated as a separate focus and a new session.
Coming off GLP-1 medication?
If you are preparing to reduce or stop GLP-1 medication with your prescribing clinician, it is completely understandable to wonder what may happen if previous cravings, food noise or old eating patterns begin to return.
This session can provide an additional layer of emotional and mindset support by focusing specifically on a food or drink that previously felt difficult for you to manage.
It does not replace medical care or your prescribed medication plan.
Are you ready to let it go?
This session is for someone who has reached the point of saying:
“I am ready. I don’t want this to have a hold over me anymore.”
Before booking, we can establish exactly what you would like to eliminate and make sure we are completely clear about the focus of your session.
