Description:
Fondazione Edmund Mach offered a chance to live an experience of mindful eating. FEM organized a meeting aimed to sensibilize the people about the theme of the healthy food, teaching them which kind of meals are considered fundamental and which dangerous. It has been explained as the type of food and the ways it can be cooked might change our body and affect our brain.The innovative part of this good practice has been the way in which such topic has been linked to the psychological sphere of the human being. The participants have been trained how to keep in touch and understand the signals of our body, for example those of fullness. Another interesting part of the activity has regarded the conscious tasting activity and breathing exercises to calm both mind and body, in order to live the meal as a well-being ritual.

Highlighted as a good practice:
Physical activity is not an isolated condition. It is connected with healthy food habits and understanding how our body function. Educational events are really interesting for participants and make them realize how much can be achieved by balanced lifestyle, connected both with physical activity and sport and healthy lifestyle. Can be implemented in organization or educational institution.
