Understanding How Eating, Health and Weight are Connected.

Hosted by Shiri Macri, MA, LCMHC and Heather Wolfe, MPH, RDN, LD, CHC

Stress eating is a common, ongoing issue with which people deal. During the COVID-19 outbreak when stress is at a high, people find themselves turning to food even more.

In this series, participants will develop strategies of success:

  • Understand why people turn to food in times of stress (or eat less) and how to manage eating behaviors
  • Review the current research about the healthy eating that contributes to health and healthy weight including how to rethink food using “gentle nutrition”
  • Learn mindful eating tools and the skills to manage stress eating, cravings and feelings of food addiction
  • Learn how to measure success and motivation for long term health
