Mindful Eating Program
Before you change your eating, you have to change the way you think and feel about food.
We all know what we should eat and who hasn’t been on one, two, three or more “diets” over the course of time? Witnessing clients’ anxiety associated with eating and the universal frustration of failed diets, I developed the Mindfulness Eating Program to treat the stress of eating and develop the emotional and cognitive skills needed to be in control of your eating in an out of control toxic eating environment.
