  • Food Significance: Lesson Plan and Handouts for Eating Disorder or Intuitive Eating Groups

    By Denise Coventry on

    I was so grateful for the lesson plan and handout. I used two hand-outs in a group medical appointment with the two minute video and I added a food demonstration. The participation was meaningful, the patients were involved, entertained and left seeming very empowered. Thank you for putting this resource together!
