Food and Fitness for Comfort and Health

We are body positive here at the store. We love every shape, every size, and the big heart inside. Also, we know that in the process of caring for oneself, sometimes there comes a time when you want to fit back into your favorite pants again, or get around a little easier. It’s a natural part of the ebb and flow of feasting and fasting. In this class we will explore many strategies, and eat plenty of delicious foods, that can help with the fasting side of the equation. Our focus will be on nourishment and healthy, flexible approaches that promote satisfaction, feelings of food security, and gut health.

The class will be co-taught by BFC employees Jeremiah (Wellness Manager) and Lisa (Educator), who have learned a lot from trial and error… especially error! Often it only takes one or two new habits to change the trajectory of one’s experience. Come survey a menu of potential new habits. If you don’t love the first one you try, just move on to the next one on the list. Everyone starts somewhere, with ups and downs and some dead-ends. Armed with some new tools and realistic goals, you too can learn how to fail your way forward.

Dietary restrictions are accommodated with advanced notice. Early registration is recommended to reserve your spot; classes often fill up. Registration closes on Thursday, September 17th.
