Weight Loss and Emotional Eating Specialist Catherine L. Taylor

Catherine L. Taylor is a weight loss coach and emotional eating specialist, Self-realized spiritual teacher, writer, artist, and inspirational speaker. She is certified by The American Council On Exercise as a Lifestyle and Weight Management Consultant.

Catherine also has training, education and or certifications in nutrition, hypnotherapy, guided imagery, meditation, life coaching, and personal training. She has taught mind/body healing workshops for Kaiser Permanente.

Catherine is the creator of The Weight Loss Master's Club, a mindfulness based weight and life mastery program. It is a unique synthesis of East/West: blending the ancient wisdom and insights of The East with discoveries in neuroscience and positive psychology to help create optimal brain/ body balance. It is this state of balance that leads to permanent weight loss.

Catherine herself struggled with compulsive overeating, chronic dieting, distorted body image and binge eating disorder, alternating with periods of bulimia and over exercising for 15 years until she found a way out of the insanity.

She has 20 years of recovery and has successfully maintained her weight during that time. She has also been a spiritual truth seeker and meditator for the past 25 years. She brings her keen insight, wit and wisdom into her work with weight.

Catherine is very upfront about her former battles with life:

“The consequences of addiction and eating disorders are serious and deadly. In my case, my eating disorder, and the anxiety and depression that went along with it, destroyed my health. I became seriously ill with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. It was a long journey back to health and wholeness.

Through regular time in nature, solitude, art and meditation, I was able to develop a relationship with my authentic Self. In time, this connection became so strong that I knew I could trust the wisdom that lived inside of me. It guided me to create a way of being in the world that nourished my soul and truly sustained my Being.

Three years ago, after a dark night of the soul, I experienced spontaneous spiritual awakening. In a powerful epiphany, my mind gave way to reveal the exquisite truth and diamond clarity of reality. In a flash, I realized I was what I was seeking all along!

The past three years of my life have been devoted to deepening the insights from that awakening, and living from the deeper awakenings and awareness that have followed it.

My work, writings, teachings and calm, penetrating clarity are all a direct transmission from the awakened or universal mind that connects all of us at the heart level. My work will resonate with you at that level, if you choose to open to it.

Truth is an experience. My work is an invitation to experience the deep truth that we are all connected at the level of the Oneness, the underlying truth of reality. It is this universal truth, love and compassion that provides the vehicle of teaching and healing that I offer to others.

People who struggle with food and weight are especially hungry for this divine reflective presence in their lives. This is the heart of the hunger at the core of the obesity epidemic. As a living bodhisattva, or awakened one, it is my spiritual and life mission to help end the emotional hunger and suffering that I see in this world."

Catherine is also a firm believer in the power of art and creativity to heal a life. "Creativity is a direct portal into joy and light," says Catherine. She expresses her creative talents in writing, photography, cooking, crafts and jewelry making.

Catherine is a graduate of The California Institute Of Jewelry Training. She sometimes offers jewelry making workshops through community colleges. Her photography, which refects her love of nature, is featured throughout this website.

“My greatest work of art is healing my own life!"

Catherine has been involved in the beauty and health industry for over 30 years. She started out as an esthetician/make-up artist, and model. At 16 years old she was told she to lose 10 1bs. for modeling. That was the beginning of her descent into the world of disordered eating.

She is owned by two cats, Jack and Jewel. She lives on the water in San Mateo, California.

Catherine is available for workshops and speaking engagements. Catherine speaks on weight loss, emotional eating, eating disorders, kundalini awakening, spiritual enlightenment, health and fitness topics. She is available to speak to groups, schools, and organizations.
