In this session, we will explore how emotion, thoughts, and behavior are interconnected and affect our eating. We will spend some time reflecting on and identifying emotion(s) that trigger eating.  We will explore comfort foods and discuss the role of mindful eating in helping manage hedonic hunger.  

*Please note. This session was previously session 2 of the Busting Barriers module.

Preparing meals for one person can present some unique challenges, some of which include: food waste, dietary fatigue from leftovers, difficulty altering calculations for recipes, decreased motivation, and lack of resources/support. In this session we will explore strategies for working through these barriers to make meal planning more feasible and enjoyable as a single person. 

This module is for registered participants only. If you have successfully registered for Session 1, your spot is secured for the rest of the module. 

Lack of nutrition knowledge can pose a significant challenge when it comes to practicing healthy eating and sustainable weight management. In this new 6-week course, we will help you develop a better foundation of nutrition principles as we explore the role of diet in the management and prevention of chronic medical conditions, the unique role of carbohydrates, protein, and fat as fuel sources for the body, as well as skills to help decipher misleading nutrition labels and make informed choices at the grocery store. Our goal is to help you build nutrition and food literacy skills that will empower you to develop your best diet.
