What good is health food if no one is going to eat it?

Class Title The Slow Down Weight Loss Group
Instructor Jennifer Adler
Details
  • A revolutionary approach to enhancing metabolism that enables lasting weight loss, while enjoying food and increasing energy.
  • A seven-week weight-loss program.
  • We will explore how relaxed eating stimulates metabolic function and how stress hormones encourage weight gain.
  • Be empowered to fully enjoying each meal as a tool to promoting a healthy body.
Our modern culture revolves around fitting as much as possible into the least amount of time. As a result, most people propel themselves through life at a dizzying pace that is contrary to a healthy lifestyle. We eat fast, on the run, and often under stress, not only removing most of the pleasure we might derive from our food and creating digestive upset, but also wreaking havoc on our metabolism. Many of us come to the end of a day feeling undernourished, uninspired, and overweight.
Nutritionist and chef, Jennifer Adler M.S., C.N. will use the principles of The Slow Down Diet by Marc David to present a new way to understand our relationship to food, focusing on quality and the possibilities of pleasure in eating to transform and improve metabolism. We will discuss cutting-edge research on body biochemistry as well as success stories from her nutritional counseling practice. This group will spend seven weeks to explore our unique connections to food, helping with letting go of fears, guilt, and old habits so we can learn to treat our bodies in a dignified and caring way. We will cover the shortcomings of quick-fix digestive aids and fad diets and debunks common nutrition myths, such as "the right way to lose weight is to eat less and exercise more."
Drawing on years of experience as a nutritionist and adjunct faculty at Bastyr University, Jennifer Adler will provide practical tools that will yield life-transforming, sustainable results.
