  About the Event

  On the surface, it may seem like meal planning and mindful eating are incompatible. How can one pre-plan AND practice present moment awareness with meal choices? But the reality is, lack of planning often doesn’t foster satisfying, joyful eating experiences either and can lead to stress and frustration around figuring out how to nourish your body. There is a middle path that exists between totally winging it and rigid control when it comes to making meal plans and that middle path is one of flexible, supportive, and mindful meal planning.

  
  

  

  Learning Objectives

  1. Explain how mindful meal planning differentiates from typical approaches to meal planning
  2. Identify the principles of supportive, mindful meal planning
  3. Describe the different ways in which one might approach meal planning to create simple, satisfying, and nourishing meals

  About the Event

  Having a difficult relationship with food and our bodies and practicing mindful eating sometimes can be very challenging for some of us. Developing a compassionate mind can help us act from a compassionate mindset before we address these challenges. Learning how our evolutive brains work, the different emotional regulation systems, and the importance of soothing to generate self-compassion can be very helpful, particularly to help us deal with our emotions.

  This webinar will move from a theoretical frame to satisfy our mind hunger into a self-compassion practice to feed out heart hunger.

  
  

  

  Learning Objectives

  1. Explain the need for self-compassion around food and eating.
  2. Understand our emotional system and the benefits of a compassionate approach
  3. Developing a compassionate mind: Activating the soothing emotional regulation system
