This 10 week program uses mind-body practices (meditation and yoga) and the principles of intuitive eating as the foundation for learning how to create a healthy relationship with your food, mind, and body. If you have a history of chronic dieting, have rigid “healthy” rules about eating, or find yourself eating when you’re stressed, bored, or unhappy, this may be the program for you. Orientation: Monday, Feb. 9 at 5:30. Classes on Mondays starting Feb. 16 (5:30 – 7:00 pm). Please note that the flyer attached last week had the wrong time. There is a $40 fee, $20 to be refunded if you attend 9 of 10 classes. CLASS SIZE IS LIMITED. Contact Hannah Bush at Hegx88@mizzou.edu to enroll.
