Most of us know how we should eat in order to lose weight, but we don’t always understand why we are eating. We often choose unhealthy foods based on emotional cues rather than hunger. Mindfulness increases self-awareness about the feelings that drive our eating patterns. Intuitive eating can help you make peace with food and listen to what your body tells you it needs.
Join Inova dietitian Lauren Trahan, MS, RD, for an interactive discussion on health and weight loss that focuses on your relationship with food rather than obsessing about calories and the scale.
Why it matters: Losing weight can lower your blood pressure, reduce your cholesterol levels and decrease your chance of developing diabetes – all of which are risk factors for heart disease and stroke. The easiest way to lose weight and keep it off is to adopt healthy, long-term eating habits.
Your next step: Register for our Feb. 27 webinar to learn more about ditching the dieting mentality and shifting the focus toward mindfulness and intuitive eating.
