Befriend Food & Body Online Group
Do you struggle with stress, emotional, or binge eating? This group is all about practicing mindful eating skills to support a healthier relationship with food & body. Learn strategies to support your nervous system to help you feel calmer and more regulated inside. What Is Mindful Eating? Mindful eating is the practice of eating with present-moment awareness, engaging your five senses. It’s the opposite of distracted eating – like eating while watching TV or scrolling your phone – which can disconnect you from your body’s cues. This disconnection often makes it hard to recognize when you’re full or truly satisfied, leading to overeating or a sense of something “missing” at the end of a meal. Mindful eating helps slow down the process, so you can stay connected to your body’s signals of hunger, fullness, and emotional satisfaction. It can help you better understand your body’s needs.
