Play with your Food: An Integrative Approach to the Most Difficult Feeding Challenges

In this dynamic and interactive course participants use a variety of tools to navigate the complex issues that prevent a child from engaging in that most basic of self-regulating survival skills, eating. Rather than focus on deficits, the course presents a paradigm shift that links neuroscience, positive psychology, and body’s innate ability to heal itself through play, eating, sleeping, learning, and social bonding. Nutrition has an enormous impact on performance across all areas of a child’s function, and the course will explore how food affects both physical and emotional development.
