Sometimes what we call being ‘hungry’ is really feeling ‘not full’ and there’s a difference I’d like to explore with you. If, when you sit down to… Continue reading Making Room for Life
Bringing Yourself to the Table
When you eat, do you bring all of yourself to your meal? Or, do you think eating takes up time that is already in short supply so you eat at your computer or in your car while en route to somewhere? Perhaps you forget to eat entirely and only stop momentarily to grab a little… Continue reading Bringing Yourself to the Table
Can You Relax in This Moment?
Is there anyone alive who can say this hasn’t been a challenging year? I don’t think so. Every day it seems like something comes along that we didn’t expect, didn’t invite, or aren’t inclined to welcome into our life. But, here it is anyway. What can we do? Breathe. It might sound like a cliche… Continue reading Can You Relax in This Moment?
Love is an Ingredient
How many times have you carefully prepared a meal – washed and chopped vegetables, sauteed or steamed them, and served them to your family all while being angry or stewing over a situation? Have you then noticed that while your family was eating they became a little testy, perhaps an argument arose out of nowhere?… Continue reading Love is an Ingredient

If this is the case for you, here’s a tip you might find helpful. When you find yourself standing in… Continue reading Awareness Around Food

Embodiment – Are You In or Out?
You have a beautiful body – are you living in it or are you hanging out nearby? Many of us don’t live in our bodies, especially those of us who have experienced abuse or trauma of some kind. We have learned that it’s safer not to. But, because our bodies are meant to be lived… Continue reading Embodiment – Are You In or Out?
