Wellness Minneapolis: Emotional Eating Explained
2022-02-09 18:00 - 19:00 (America/Chicago) | Virtual
Take home some strategies from this virtual class with Jesse Haas, CNS, LN for breaking the emotional eating pattern in loving, joyful ways.

About this event

Why is it that boredom, grief, anger and even joy stimulate the desire to eat?
The truth is, emotional eating is an effective tool for relieving stress. Yet, while that cookie may make you feel better in the moment, it’s not truly a solution to your emotional strain. Food can never fill the void of hard emotions. Instead, it soothes us, putting a band-aid on the wound.
There are biochemical explanations for why you crave certain foods or have an increased appetite when you’re facing emotionally challenging things. AND there are alternatives to eating that support healing mind, body and spirit. Join us for a virtual conversation with Jesse Haas, functional nutritionist and co-founder of Wellness Minneapolis and take home some strategies for breaking the emotional eating pattern in loving, joyful ways.
This class will not be recorded.

About Your Instructor: ​Jesse Haas is a licensed functional nutritionist, health coach, and co-founder of Wellness Minneapolis. She has a keen interest in the mind-body-heart connection and brings this perspective into every class and client interaction to empower authentic and healing self-care.
