Most of the research on Mindful Eating has been done with women, and most practitioners and teachers are most experienced serving females.
Attend this session to learn how to make your content more gender inclusive and relevant to all people.
We’ll review what the research shows, and where further inquiry is needed, as well as consider practical tips for connecting with ALL people.
Learning Objectives
- Articulate the gaps in knowledge regarding how to serve people of all genders regarding Mindful Eating.
- Specify the reasons why we must ensure our content can resonate with men and non-binary people.
- Develop additional skills for how to ensure ME teachings can be relevant for all.
