This webinar will provide a thorough introduction to mindful eating for people new to the idea and practice. Mindfulness is the capacity to bring full attention and awareness to one’s experience, in the moment, without judgment. Mindful Eating brings mindfulness to food choice and the experience of eating. Mindful eating helps us become aware of our thoughts, feelings, and physical sensations related to eating, reconnecting us with our innate inner wisdom about hunger and satiety. Through this webinar participants will learn what mindful eating is and is not, the benefits of eating mindfully, and tools and techniques for practicing mindful eating.
Learning Objectives:

She is passionate about helping people make peace with food and to (re)learn how to nourish themselves in ways that are kind and caring, rather than restrictive and punishing.
She holds a three year Dip in Nutritional Therapy, certifications in mind-body medicine and Mindful Eating. She is one of three directors for the board of Nutritional Therapists of Ireland and a board member and the current secretary of The Centre for Mindful Eating.
