Mindfulness-Based Eating Awareness Training
COMPLETE PROGRAM - $850
A twelve-week program designed to end the cycle of dieting by helping participants cultivate a real relationship with food that's healthy and sustainable. Backed by years of NIH research, MB-EAT is designed to address all forms of "mindfulness" eating through the application of mindfulness including: stress-related eating, emotional eating, disordered eating patterns, and obesity. Through mindful eating practices, participants learn to pay attention to what their bodies really need and why, in addition to releasing the guilt and struggle often associated with eating. The course format is an initial ten-week program with two follow-up sessions scheduled one month and six months afterward. This aids in accountability and allows for a strengthening of ongoing principles and practice.
