Have you heard? We have an Essential Series event coming up: Eat by Design – Kids! – a special seminar based on the original Eat by Design series, created especially for moms!
Here is my promise to you, as your Modern Mama Director: I will never create an event that I would not want to attend myself. As you may know, my professional background is in health, fitness, and wellness, and this upcoming workshop is a reflection of my values.
Eat by Design – Kids! is a seminar designed to teach you – mom – the principles of Eat by Design so that you can apply it to your own and your kids’ diets.
Eat by Design works in harmony with our body’s genetic make-up and design. It is not a diet, but instead an approach to fulfilling the nutritional requirements of the body for optimal function.
Based on the ground-breaking work of Loren Cordain, PhD, Eat By Design teaches people how to eat to create health, instead of eating to alleviate a symptom or to treat a disease. This seminar will include a discussion on how to make healthy snacks and lunches for your kids!
In the interest of full disclosure: I am currently a vegetarian, but I am always open to learning about new nutritional theories. I am totally aware that this workshop may just blow the socks off my current eating practices, but you know what – bring it on. I need to hear “the other side”.
Like you, all I want is to do the best for myself and my family. As moms, we are ultimately in charge of what anybody who lives under our roof eats.
Having a textbook “picky eater”, I’ve come to grips with the fact that things will never be perfect (I was an extremely picky eater myself as a child, and I actually remember hating eating in general). I’ve attended all sorts of workshops, discussed the issue with our pediatrician, and even got a referral to a Registered Dietician at the Glenrose who specializes in picky eaters.
So trust me – I know that at the end of the day, the kids decide what to put in their mouth (as it should be). But we as mothers decide what we spend our money on, and what food to bring into our house.
Dr. Karen Osburn, co-owner of Synergy Family Wellness Centre will be presenting for us on Wednesday, November 6, from 1:00 – 2:00 PM at Java Mama. Plus, child minding will be available! Reserve your spot now!
All participants will be emailed the extensive Eat by Design Manual including recipes and website links to start practicing what you learn at the seminar!
It is my hope that this workshop will be of service to you and your family so that you can make a more informed decision about your diet.
