Read what Online Member’s have told us about their experiences with our online program for eating disorders:
“There isn’t a day that goes by that you and your wonderful centre don’t enter my mind! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! I really like the teleclasses. It is so nice to hear your voice. I love that we start each class with the 4-7-8, it is so relaxing and creates such a great atmosphere. I don’t feel nervous or afraid to share at all! I love how much I learn through others experiences.”

“I really appreciate how the calls are recorded so I can listen to them again and again. So much gets shared in the hour and the recordings allow me to just relax and take part knowing that I can download the calls and listen and take notes any time I want, if I want!”

“Thank you for all the brilliant and effective tools you provide in the online program. You are truly saving my life.”
_____________________________________________________________________________________
There truly are so many resources and so much great material in this program, there is no way I can’t be successful! Thank you!

“I have been searching for the key that would help me “get it” and voila you presented it. I was astounded at how simple the answer was. I’m just getting started with this process but I have already felt a huge weight lift off my shoulders and this past week I have been absolutely amazed at the difference in my outlook and interaction with food.”

“I really like receiving these emailed Daily Centering Exercises as they are short and a good reminder of the tools. They alone are worth the price of the course and then some!”
_____________________________________________________________________________________
“I listened to your natural eating CD from the online program today, and it is so helpful and encouraging. I like the more human touch to it with your voice to listen to. I had a few “ahah” moments and can see where I get stuck. Very insightful. Thank you”
____________________________________________________________________________________
“The cd’s are amazing! It is so easy to understand where I’ve been going wrong and how to relate to food in a peaceful way. The peace I’ve gained from just listening to these cd’s is worth the entire program fee in and of itself. What a great resource!”
____________________________________________________________________________________
“This course is so versatile: you really can do as little or as much as you want. If you need to stop in the middle of an exercise, there is no consequence. You can read, watch a dvd, or be hands-on and work on ‘assignments’.” 
______________________________
“I get so much out of hearing the other member’s sharing and from talking about our experiences.”
______________________________
“I highly recommend this program to anyone who wants to stop stressing about food once and for all!”

Michelle, I know that I am still the same person as I was two years ago, but I sure don’t feel that way!
I had been using food to cope for at least 35 years without realizing that that wasn’t actually how a life should be. The media images; the Weight Loss programmes; the general chat around the office – it was all so normal, or so I thought. The event that propelled me to actually acknowledge that something wasn’t right was traumatic and I wish it hadn’t happened. And yet I am so thankful that it did, and that in seeking some relief from the pain, your name and your work were mentioned.
The book, the tools, the opportunity to share experiences with others going through similar experiences, the bi-weekly calls, the handouts, the recordings of your calm voice; everything was fantastic and resonated so deeply with me. It was amazing to read the book and feel that it was written just for me! How did you do that?
My life is so different now. I am so much more open to others. So much braver in the risks I am willing to take and the situations I happily expose myself to. I am excited about the prospect of what lies ahead instead of feeling locked away in a self-made dungeon. I am in love with Yoga!
I am so grateful for everything that you have done for me. I hope that you will continue your wonderful work so that others may also benefit.
Love Lesley

Hi Michelle,
I just have to thank you SO much! You do not know how much you have changed my life in the less than 2 short month since I have found your website and on-line program. Since I learned that I use food to cope (I never noticed that, I had always labeled myself with an eating disorder) I have not binged unconsciously. I have used to food to cope, but I have been aware of it, permitted myself to do so and then stop using food to cope before I made myself sick. Tonight’s call was so helpful! I am thrilled that I got to ask you questions and that I now understand the Drill Sargent and myself so much better. I will do my best to use the tools that you provide to help me even more. For the first time in my life I do not feel like a victim that can not change. I do not feel hopeless, but I feel hopeful. Thank you so very much for the Cedric Centre!
Have a wonderful night!
Thank you, Rachel

“I feel so lucky to have had the education from Michelle,this site and all of the wonderful participants that when hearing a story as yours, I know we are all so much further along in our education on using food to cope.”

“It’s only been one day on the online program but already I am feeling so supported. The program is well set up and laid out and it looks like there is lots to be done! I am eager to get started. I also appreciate you offering it at such an affordable price, this makes healing possible for so many more! Thanks so much Michelle!

“I really appreciate that you can work on this program discretely on a computer, instead of worrying about who may see you with your nose in the brightly coloured orange book.”

“This is so good, and there are more good times in my future, sweet. I know that life is what it is and there will be down times and that’s cool too – I can take it, because now I’ve got tools! It’s the easiest work I’ve ever had to do.”

The daily centering exercises really do keep me on track with my new tools. Even when I don’t have the time or energy to do anything in the program, these brief quotes remind me of key points and I feel supported and my day just goes better!”
_____________________________________________________________________________________
“I just want you to know that you have helped me more than my words could ever say. The day I went online and looked up overeating or something like that … I will forever be grateful that Cedric Centre popped up and that you are the person behind it all. I think of you so often. I know we don’t ‘know’ each other but with a sincere heart, a thankful mind, a grateful partner (that has the woman back in his life he knew was there), kids that are just sooooooooooo happy ’cause well you know the reason….. THANK YOU just isn’t enough.”

“This course is a blessing. Thank you for holding healing space for me / us / others. It is much appreciated. I am so happy! I feel like the person I knew existed inside is finally out!”

“Wow!! I can’t even remember the last time I even thought about using food to cope.”
_____________________________________________________
“O.K. so I just started the course and I was reading the stuff about the Drill Sergeant (inner critic) and I didn’t actually walk though the entire process. I kept saying “Yah, Yah, that makes sense” and putting off putting pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard). So then when I started lesson 3 it said to do it before I go any further. So I did it and WOW that was powerful!!! Really, really powerful.”

“A concept from your book that filled me with great hope was that of Natural Eating. I know a few people who eat this way. I have always felt jealous of their “innate ability” to have such a free and easy relationship with food. I thought people were either “born” with the power, or not. I was relieved to discover that I could consciously change my relationship with food by learning new skills and dealing with demons. The ultimate goal is indeed a more peaceful existence around food and exercise. That is what I am creating for myself. Thank you.”

When this Online Program was first launched, I procrastinated against joining, and felt hesitant to enter into something that I felt would lock me down – I am a perfectionist, and hate starting something I can’t master. I did not fully engage in this program until I moved out of the country. Now that I am far away from family and friends, and starting new relationships, I realize how helpful the online program can be.”
