Mindful Eating

Mindful Eating

Mindfulness-Based Eating Awareness Training has been developed over the past decade by Jean L. Kristeller, Ph.D., Indiana State University; C. Brendan Hallett Psy.D., Department of Psychology, Indiana State University; Ruth A. Baer, Department of Psychology, University of Kentucky; Ruth Quillian-Wolever, Center for Integrative Medicine, Duke University. Integrating elements from Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), cognitive behavioral therapy, and guided eating meditations, the program draws on both traditional mindfulness meditation techniques and guided meditation to address issues pertaining to weight, shape, and eating-regulated behaviors like appetite and satiety. The field of study also includes other perspectives on dysfunctional eating patterns, notably: the chronic dieting model, affect regulation models, and the escape model. For decades, nutritionists, behaviorists, and other scientists have studied this phenomenon. Our goal is to integrate all of their findings into a practical system of daily behavioral modification that anyone can practice to achieve a healthy, grounded relationship to food and eating and thus accomplish their weight loss and optimum health maintenance goals.
