Held Online
For those struggling with disordered eating, the idea of normalizing behaviors around food may seem like a significant challenge. Our bodies are driven by physiological, psychological and even social needs around eating; when these patterns are disrupted, it can be difficult to identify hunger cues and be present at meals.
This webinar, led by Samantha Goss MPH, RDN, LDN, Regional Nutrition Manager for The Renfrew Center and Alejandra Guerrero, RDN, LDN, Registered Dietitian at The Renfrew Center of Florida, will explore how our eating habits are developed over time and identify specific influences that may impact them. Disordered versus normalized eating will be defined, and attendees will receive tips to dismantle rules around food using the three P’s to get back on track—prioritizing, planning and preparing.
