In this course you will learn how to:
* Make intentional food choices
* Reduce mindless eating
* Increase the use of all your senses (not just taste) when
experiencing food to make eating a more joyful experience
* Acknowledge your body’s responses to certain foods without
judgment
* Become more attuned to your body’s hunger and satiety cues to
guide when and how much to eat
* Identify what barriers and obstacles prevent mindful eating
The course will begin with an assessment which will help participants
to gauge their current level of mindfulness related to eating habits.
In each group meeting, we will explore different mindful eating
principles and then practice one or more mindful eating techniques and
reflect on the experience. Participants will be provided with
additional resources to practice in between sessions. At the end of
the course, we will revisit the assessment completed in week one to
measure improvements in participants’ mindful eating habits.
