Claudia Vega Me.D.

Cuando trabajamos la nutrición pediátrica, en específico los problemas relacionados a la ingesta excesiva, o deficiente y monótona de los niños y adolescentes, necesitamos entender las costumbres y creencias del sistema familiar en torno a la alimentación. La alimentación consciente (Mindful Eating) puede permitir a los niños reconectar con la sabiduría natural de sus cuerpos para tomar decisiones adecuadas en torno al comer. También puede ayudar a los padres a recuperar la confianza en que sus hijos pueden comer sana y equilibradamente, sin necesidad de tantas reglas y restricciones alimentarias.

The Five Precepts of Mindful Eating: Ethical Considerations on the Path

Ronna Kabatznick, Ph.D.

Mindful Living isn't just a way of eating, it's a way of living. Mindful Eating actually exists in a much wider context that includes the ways in which we may harm ourselves both physically and emotionally. Additionally we will examine the ways in which we speak about our food that may be ungrateful and even morally incorrect. How honest are we about how we use food to dampen emotions or use food as a weapon against ourselves? And of course, there are the ways in which we may use food as an intoxicant.

Establishing a Mindful Eating Practice

(1 CE/CPE)

Sharon Theroux, Ph.D. Establishing a mindful eating practice, and moving away from the diet mentality is life affirming. However, cultivating such a practice in our fast-paced society can be a challenge, requiring a shift from using external guidance about what, when, and how much to eat (e.g. diets, provided portion sizes, dress size, the bathroom scale) to internal guidance (e.g. using your taste buds, your hunger/satiety cues). A daily formal practice is essential. Given March 14, 2017.
