About this listen
Making and maintaining lasting changes in nutrition and fitness is not easy for anyone. Yet the communication style of a health professional can make a huge difference. This audiobook presents the proven counseling approach known as motivational interviewing (MI) and shows exactly how to use it in day-to-day interactions with clients. MI offers simple yet powerful tools for helping clients work through ambivalence, break free of diets and quick-fix solutions, and overcome barriers to change. Extensive sample dialogues illustrate specific ways to enhance conversations about meal planning and preparation, exercise, body image, disordered eating, and more. Reproducible forms and handouts can be downloaded and printed in a convenient 8 1/2 x 11 size. Instructors requesting a desk copy from Guilford will be emailed a link to supplemental PowerPoint slides and exam questions.
This audiobook is in the Applications of Motivational Interviewing series, edited by Stephen Rollnick, William R. Miller, and Theresa B. Moyers.
Motivational Interviewing in Nutrition and Fitness is wonderfully narrated by Kathleen Godwin. All figures and handouts referenced in the audiobook are included in the supplementary PDF, which is available for download with purchase of the audiobook.

Story
When it was first published, Intuitive Eating was revolutionary in its anti-dieting approach. The authors, both prominent health professionals in the field of nutrition and eating disorders, urge listeners to embrace the goal of developing body positivity and reconnecting with one’s internal wisdom about eating—to unlearn everything they were taught about calorie-counting and other aspects of diet culture and to learn about the harm of weight stigma. Today, their message is more relevant and pressing than ever.

“Coaches rely far too much on asking open-ended questions,” says Marcia Reynolds. But questions only seek answers — inquiry provides insight. When, instead of just questions, clients hear their thoughts, opinions, and beliefs spoken by someone else, it prompts them to critically consider how their thinking affects their goals. Reynolds cites the latest brain science to show why reflective inquiry works and provides techniques, tips, and structures for creating breakthrough conversations.

Read for a class on nutrition
This book is good for anyone who helps people by motivating them. Some sample conversations felt a bit unnatural to me but you can take out what feels natural for you and forget the rest. I think it will be useful in more than just nutrition and exercise counseling. it was nice to have the paperback book for reference in addition to the audio.

As an RDN I love this training!!
I have 2 and 1/2 year of experience as an RDN in the outpatient setting. I did get trained on MI in undergrad, but a lot of the concepts were hard to apply so early on before having more experience with working in the field. I found myself struggling to help the people I am working with find internationally driven motivation that lasts. Many of the people in my program retuned with shame and “failure” to follow the plan they agreed to try. I am SOO glad I picked up this book. The many examples throughout were so incredibly helpful and so different than how my sessions were going. After finishing the book I have to say IT WORKS! In two major ways. 1) my clients are soo much more responsive and motivated to set their OWN goals fairly soon within the sessions 2) I feel so much less pressure to solve all their problems but still feel positively impactful. I highly recommend this book for all people in the health and wellness field of care. I’m about to start the book over again to help drill the principles in. I never want to forget what I learned. Thank you to the author!!

Paradigm Shifting
I'm in a health coaching course that prepares graduates to sit for the National Board for Health and Wellness Coaches. The facilitator highly recommended this book. She has no affiliation with the authors.
This book, especially the audio version, is life-changing. Professionally and personally, I have improved relationships with clients and loved ones. In a nutshell, the compassionate communication skills of Motivational Interviewing applied to Nutrition and Fitness help anyone be a better human being. I don't think that's hyperbole. I feel like a better human being for being able to support fellow humans in their life's quests.
The narrator does an excellent job. The accompanying PDF is quite useful as a quick reminder of the book's concepts.
