The first step in understanding your relationship with food is getting to know yourself—your habits, emotions, and the patterns that guide your eating. Over the next four weeks, we’ll explore emotional eating, recurring food behaviors, family and cultural influences, and the way you talk to yourself about your body.
This part of the course is about awareness, not judgment. By observing your habits and thoughts with curiosity and compassion, you’ll begin to uncover the hidden influences on your eating and body image. Journaling and buddy exercises will help you reflect and share insights, laying the foundation for mindful, intentional choices in the weeks ahead.
Now that you’ve explored your personal food habits and body relationship, it’s time to uncover what drives them. In these four weeks, we’ll identify the triggers that prompt eating—emotional, environmental, social, and cultural—and examine how stress and situations influence your choices.
The goal is awareness, not restriction. By noticing your triggers and understanding the patterns behind them, you’ll gain the insight needed to respond thoughtfully instead of automatically. Journaling and buddy exercises will help you reflect, experiment, and begin to shift habits in ways that feel manageable and empowering.
In this final part of the course, you’ll focus on turning awareness into action and making sustainable changes. You’ll learn how to build healthy habits, respond to cravings mindfully, practice self-compassion, and integrate what you’ve learned into your daily life. Each lesson includes practical strategies, journaling prompts, and buddy exercises to help you apply the concepts, reflect on your progress, and continue your journey beyond the course. By the end of this section, you’ll have the tools and confidence to maintain mindful eating, support your wellbeing, and celebrate your growth.
