We often think of back to school in terms of supplies: pencils and binders, backpacks and tablets, too often relying on the schools to provide adequate nutrition to fuel those hungry little minds.
I have a special guest for today's Philosophy Friday, Heidi of mindfulyoumindfulme.org, a mindfulness educator and occupational therapist stoped by to chat with us about how to integrate mindfulness around mealtime. Good nutritional choices begin with awareness, when we teach kids how to be present they are more equipped to handle what Heidi calls 'big feelings' allowing them to identify when they are eating for comfort or for nutrition. Attention is a skill and when children are taught you to notice things like how certain foods affect their mood, they can begin to develop a palate for wholesome nutrition foods that fuel their minds and body. When a kid is nourished they are more alert, less distracted and better able to focus on the task at hand. And this doesn't just pertain to growing minds and healthy attitudes toward food in our children, but to us adults whom they look to for modeling. Heidi offers some very specific exercises that we can all practice to bring more awareness into our mealtimes. Back to school is a perfect time to integrate new choices and eating habits into mealtime.
