ONLINE COMMUNITY GATHERING
The Conscious Dining Circle
An online gathering in a virtual circle once a month around the time of the new moon where we gather to connect to our bodies, to our nourishment and to each other. A space to meet with the community from wherever you are and connect around our food and the way we nourish our bodies in ritual.
The time of the new moon is the time of new fresh beginnings and a moment to reconsider how we have been doing things until now and change it. A time to reframe the way we treat our bodies in relation to our nourishment.
We come together to practice body meditation, body and food connection practices, gratitude for the food we have available everyday on our table, food blessing rituals and conscious eating practices.
We practice conscious connection to our nourishment and to our bodies while awakening our senses to receive the information from the food in front of us.
We turn the moment of nourishment into a sacred ritual where we intentionally and consciously choose what to give to our bodies.
How often do you …
… watch a movie or scrolling on your phone while having a meal?
… listen to music, talking or reading while being distracted from truly connecting to your nourishment and your body?
… feel disconnected from the food you are eating and by the end of the meal you still feel ‘empty’ and unsatisfied?
… consume your food while being distracted by thoughts in your mind?
… feel overwhelmed and distracted by different emotions (such as annoyance, anger, frustration, sadness while consuming your food?

Why conscious eating is important?
+ STRESS RELEASE
Eating consciously in a gentle sanctuary sends messages to the brain that you are safe and your parasympathetic nervous system that is about rest, safety and digestion is activated.
+ IMPROVED DIGESTION
The digestive track functions better when the body is relaxed. It secrets more enzymes, hormones, stomach acid, aids the absorption of nutrients and allows better blood flow around the digestive track and organs.
+ IMPROVED CHEWING
Reduced digestive discomfort like bloating, constipation or chronic gut inflammation.
+ REGULATES BODY WEIGHT
Conscious eating can help you regulate your food intake intuitively tailored to what your body truly needs. Also slow eating helps you regulate your hunger by allowing time for the signals of fulfilment to reach the brain before eating more than what your body needs. This can regulate your weight organically and naturally.
+ BODY CONNECTION
Conscious eating helps you come back to the body and listen to how your body needs to be nourished resulting in food choices that are aligned to your special and unique design while respecting your body.
+ RECEIVING PLEASURE FROM FOOD
Conscious eating helps you connect with your nourishment through all your senses and consciously enjoy every sensorial detail of it. Notice the flavours, the textures, the shapes and scents as well as the energy that the food carries within.
WHEN
One evening per month around the time of the new moon.
