Discussion Workshop Signup
Join Dr. Duane in the step-by-step transformation process of living gracefully with food allergies. We start by identifying ideologies on several fronts that make life challenging. The first two chapters discuss broad global constraints impose by religion, the government and other institutions. As we dig into future chapters, we'll learn how global beliefs translate into our interactions with friends and family, and with the way we think ourselves. By gaining a deep understanding of these "truths" or "beliefs," we can challenge them, re-strategize our responses, and ultimately transform and empower ourselves to live our best life with new "truths."
Participants will be asked to apply new concepts between workshops. Ultimately, participants will be equipped with ways to navigate the gluten-free, food sensitive lifestyle. Workshops are designed to help you take the concepts from the book and apply them to challenging social situations. Group sizes are limited to encourage enriching discussions. To prepare for the workshop discussions, please:
1. Read the chapter(s).
2. Think about examples from your life that you might want to share.
3. Consider what ideologies from the chapter(s) apply to your example.
4. Plan to ask questions.
5. (PS - don't worry if you don't have examples, or can't decide which ideologies apply -- it will all be addressed in the workshop!)

Need More Time?
If you feel you need more than the discussion workshops, you can book one-on-one time with Dr. Duane to discuss a situation and work out applied ideologies and mitigation strategies. One-on-one time provides you with an opportunity to work on specific social situations that may be impeding your ability to thrive while living the gluten-free/food allergic lifestyle. We'll work together to develop strategies to experiment with, so you will have a good idea of how to handle troublesome situations. The best way to address a problem is to have a plan beforehand! Please purchase a 50-minute timeslot for $149.00 (regular price $199) and Dr. Duane will reach out to coordinate schedules.
