Raising Healthier Teens (Course 11708) Tuesday, March 21, 2023 7-8:30pm

Westchester Reform Temple, Scarsdale, NY

When our kids were little, we had more control over what they ate. Once they become teens, the allure of junk food, fast food, and sugary drinks is often too much for them to resist. In their quest for independence, they make food choices that sometimes go against the best advice or encouragement from their parents. What can we do as parents to help our teens sail through this rite of passage to a place where they ultimately make healthier food and lifestyle choices?

Dissecting Food Labels (Course 11709) Mondays: April 24 and May 1, 2023 1-2:30pm

Westchester Reform Temple, Scarsdale, NY

Does it matter that we can’t pronounce most of the ingredients listed in our meals or our kids’ snacks? What exactly are “natural” flavors? Why are there over 60 names for sugar? Confused about which cooking oils are good to use? You’re not alone. In this eye-opening course, we’ll dissect the food labels of our favorite products to learn what we’re really feeding ourselves and our family. We’ll uncover why we crave certain foods, learn about chemical ingredients and how they affect us, and dig deep into the quality of our food and the food industry. Come with an open mind and a willingness to participate.

Reduce Food Cravings, Lower Stress, and Increase Energy Without Dieting (Course 11707) Wednesdays: April 26, May 3, May 10 7-8:30pm 

Westchester Reform Temple, Scarsdale, NY

Have you ever heard of anyone being addicted to chicken or broccoli? No, never. But, cookies, cakes, and salty snacks, 100%. Why do these foods have a grip on us, especially when we are stressed? Learn practical ways to make new habits and reduce those cravings. Discover how to improve your sleep so you can wake up feeling rested. Learn techniques to increase your energy and live your best life, all without ever dieting. Spend your free time enjoying life, not recovering from it. Understand the relationship between lifestyles and food choices, how to lower stress and anxiety, and find more balance in life. Participation and class discussion are encouraged.

 

WEIGHT LOSS WITHOUT DIETING 

Wednesday, April 12 • 6:30-8:00pm 

Horace Greeley High School, Chappaqua, NY

Sick of dieting? Tired of the restrictions, rules, and expensive meals and powders? They might work for a while... but then they don't. The weight returns leaving us feeling disheartened and frustrated. There's got to be a better way. Rather than being constrained, limited, and burdened with a list of "off-limit" foods, you'll learn how abundance is key in shedding pounds and inches. You'll discover how stress is linked to weight gain and learn which foods sustain and nourish you without compromising on taste. Wouldn't it be great to never feel deprived or say "I'm on a diet" again?

 

 

Looking Under (and Beyond) the Label

June 6, 13, 20 • 10:30-11:30am

Westchester Community College

Does it matter that you can’t pronounce most of the ingredients listed in your meals or your kids’ snacks? What exactly are “natural” flavors? Why are there over 60 names for sugar?
