Do you ever feel overwhelmed by thoughts about food, cravings, or the feeling that you should have more willpower?
Join Erica Thomas, LMFT, for a free, one-hour experiential workshop exploring a kinder approach to emotional eating and food noise.
Through gentle reflection and guided journaling exercises, you'll learn how to create a compassionate pause, better understand what's happening beneath your urges, and begin responding to yourself with curiosity rather than judgment.
No writing experience necessary. Just bring yourself and a willingness to explore!
