  • I have stopped swallowing my unease

    “Rouba has changed my life. I have stopped swallowing my unease and can cry out my emotions. I feel as though I woke up from a really nasty nightmare and I’ve been finally learning what it means to live and be free.”

    — Wren, USA

  • Rouba’s “Food for Thought” call really blew my mind

    “I am an experienced coach and have good levels of self-awareness but the things I learned about myself during my conversation with Rouba were nothing short of eye-opening.”

    — Dee, Thailand

  • I am able to connect inwards

    “Rouba has taught me to connect to every part of my body, helping me find my sources of energy. I never listened to my body before, I am now able to connect inwards. Using her soft and flexible approach, Rouba helped me get rid of my body pain and recharge from within.”

    — Marlene, Lebanon

  • I've become more present

    “Rouba’s guidance has helped me become more present, self-aware, and conscious in my body. Moving forward, I will pay more attention to my stress level, slow down, and identify what I am feeling before putting food in my mouth.”

    — Bonnie Davis, USA

  • I now listen deeply

    “Rouba has taught me to listen deeply and somewhere along the way meet myself again, truly, fully and purely.”

    — Khalil, Ghana

  • Revelations, reflections and aha moments

    “Working with Rouba has been a very profound and impactful journey filled with revelations, reflections and aha moments. Rouba gave me tools to keep in my arsenal for processing adversity and trauma in a positive and constructive manner that I will probably draw on and utilize for the rest of my life. I'm very grateful to her and recommend that everyone works with her.”

    — Zeynab, UAE

  • I've learnt new strategies

    “I enjoyed expressing my issues among a supportive group. Rouba’s guidance helped me handle intrusive eating thoughts. Techniques like the hand meditation and breathing out have become my go-to strategies for releasing stress instead of immediately turning to food.”

Beyond the emptiness:
How I found fullness outside of food

Rouba Chalabi author of Beyond the Emptiness

I wrote “Beyond the emptiness: How I found fullness outside of food” to spread hope among overeaters. My memoir describes my pain growing up and living 40 years as an overeater and the circumstances that kept me in this vicious cycle. I share how I transformed on a physical, emotional and spiritual level to lose 1/3 of my weight and sustain it for 7 years.

Amazing book. Grab yourself a copy. It is a short read, yet profound, deep and beautifully written by a beautiful soul.

— Lara

Hello you,
I’m Rouba Chalabi

I blend breathwork with food addiction counseling to help you find harmony within and transform your body-food connection

I have been a workaholic and overeater myself for 40 years. You are learning from a recovering food addict, who has successfully lost 1/3 of her weight and sustained it for over 7 years. 

Everything I do comes from my personal experience healing my relationship with food and reconnecting with myself, my training in biodynamic breathwork and trauma release and the food addiction recovery model.
