The session begins at 6:00pm with a welcoming introduction to mindful eating concepts. You will watch a demonstration of almond flour ginger cookies together, a naturally gluten-free, refined sugar-free treat that’s as nourishing as it is satisfying, before engaging in mindfulness-based tasting exercises exploring different flavours and sensations.
