Join Arlaina Waisman, Registered Dietitian with OASIS, a division of Vancouver Coastal Health, to learn about mindful eating for better health in this two-part series. 
 
Do thoughts or emotions affect your eating? Living with a chronic condition can affect your mood and coping skills too. Understanding why you eat, also known as mindful eating, can help you change your relationship with food. Mindful eating is learning about HOW and WHY you eat, and less about WHAT you eat.
