Understanding food cravings: Tools for a healthier relationship with food

Do you ever feel a strong, sudden desire to eat? Whether it's late-night snacking, mid-afternoon sugar urges at work, or an irresistible craving for crisps — you're not alone. In this interactive workshop, we will deepen our understanding of food cravings, and explore their various triggers, from physiological ones like blood sugar dips and nutrient imbalances to emotional drivers, stress responses, habits and environmental cues.  You will learn practical strategies to respond with awareness instead of impulse.

Through reflective discussion you'll learn:
