February 22, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm
$35This workshop will apply an intersectional lens to the factors that increase vulnerability to binge and overeating, and the disparate risk and effects across race, class, gender, and ethnicity. Drawing from their intervention research, the presenters will share strategies for adaptive self-care and coping, awareness of present-moment experiences of hunger and satiety, and decreased reliance on food-based behaviors for distress tolerance.
