03.01.2022 Hi! Im looking for up to 10 women between the age of 30 to 50 to become part of a pilot group for Project Health in Coffs Harbour NSW. If you would like to participate in a 6 week (1 hour per week) project discussing food, health and body image please contact me via text on 0414572097. The group may start later in November 2017. Allison Davidson.
01.01.2022 What is Project Health: A 6 week (one hour per week) intervention which promotes healthy, lasting, lifestyle changes to dietary intake and activity. Project Health produced a 66% reduction in future eating disorder onset over 2-yr follow-up. The intervention is the outgrowth of a 16-year program of research on the risk factors for eating disorders by Dr Eric Stice and his team at the Oregon Research Institute. Suitable for groups of young people (the research was primarily conducted with females aged 13-19) and offer interventions which demonstrate a significant reduction in risk for eating disorder and obesity onset. The interventions also show decreases in thin-ideal internalization, body dissatisfaction and psychosocial impairments. Keep an eye out for upcoming events for groups planned by our ACFED Approved Prevention Facilitators.
