THE ART OF INTENTIONAL EATING
Overcome Emotional Eating and Heal Your Relationship with Food through Mindfulness and Intuitive Eating
WHAT IS THE ART OF INTENTIONAL EATING?
The Art of Intentional Eating combines mindfulness and practical skills to teach our community to breakdown diet myths and nurture a positive relationship with food and the body. We offer several formats to learn mindful eating, including a 10-week educational group series; a full-day experiential intensive; and community education workshops.
Our signature series is a 10-session educational and interactive group incorporating mindfulness, meditation and nutritional planning skills to assist participants in resolving emotional and mindless eating patterns thus improving their relationship with food and themselves. The group is designed with evidence-based interventions that have been shown to effectively reduce overeating and increase ability to normalize eating. Participants will have the opportunity to learn and practice skills in a group setting and then take additional materials home to further improve their progress.
