Practicing mindful eating is tougher than it looks!

Because if you're in a constant fight or flight state (stressed, anxious, worried, etc), your system is mobilized into action and this may show up as having many food thoughts, cravings, and an overwhelming need to eat... in a rushed, distracted, binge-y kind of way.

And slowing down this type of eating may seem impossible in the moment.

⭐ Because mindful eating requires our bodies to be in a regulated and safe state.

This is where we have access to the body’s ventral vagal nervous system, otherwise known as the Safe & Social system.

⭐ This is the state where our bodies feel calm, alert, and connected inside.

⭐ Here, we can get curious and truly satisfy our body’s needs.

Want to learn more about this safe and regulated state?

🙌 Join my Mindful Eating Mondays group! Every week, I'll guide you through different activities to support your nervous system into more safety and connection.

This helps make eating easier and less stressful.

⭐ There are so many different tools to support nervous system regulation - AND having a more regulated system supports our capacity to eat food.

Especially if there's a food you feel worried about eating or feeling out-of-control with eating.

⭐ In my Mindful Eating Mondays group we practice using all of these different grounding tools and more!

And one incredibly important "tool" that isn't mentioned here is co-regulation.

⭐ That's one reason why I love facilitating groups - because being in a group is a powerful way to support regulation.

And I keep groups small - between 6-8 participants so that you feel supported.

⭐ Instead of viewing binge eating as a lack of willpower and beating yourself up, consider it as a signal from your body. Try asking: What do I really need right now?

💛 Maybe your body is exhausted and craving rest.
💛 Maybe your mind is overwhelmed and needs calm.
💛 Maybe you’re feeling disconnected and need comfort.
💛 Maybe… you actually just need more food!

Mindful eating helps you slow down, tune in, and meet your body’s needs with kindness.

✨ Want to practice this with support? My 10-week Mindful Eating Mondays group starts March 31st—join us!

✨ You’ll practice slowing down the urge to eat and checking in with your body's needs. I’d love to have you.

✨I'm running a new group starting March 31st!

Mindful Eating Mondays is an opportunity to practice mindful eating skills so that you can feel satisfied by the foods that you eat.

Yes, that's right, that means we'll eat together in a small online group setting.

Each week you'll be guided into different practices (with different food) so that you can slow down the pace of eating and engage your 5 senses.

I offer suggested ideas on what food to bring: we'll play around with comfort foods, nourishing foods, fun foods, desserts, etc.

And you get to turn your camera off during the mindful eating portion of the group so you don't have to worry about anyone watching you.

By practicing mindful eating together, you'll...

✨ Become more aware of your hunger and fullness cues
✨ Feel more satisfied by the foods that you eat
✨ Explore patterns around stress eating and food cravings, and
✨ Attend to your body with kindness

AND I have an earlybird offer for you if you register by March 10!
