In today’s changing and challenging environment, health equity in the community remains an unaddressed crisis with fewer resources and tools to empower communities. This Mindful Eating for the Beloved Community book signing event hosted by BCA Global provides diverse communities with a thoughtful and engaging way to understand how and what we eat. The event will include an introduction to mindfulness and meditation, a mindful meal, Mindful Eating Book Q&A and book signing with authors.
Mindful Eating is a transformative program that uses powerful storytelling and culinary exercises to highlight the positive impact of mindfulness and nutrition. Created by a diverse group of chefs, nutritionists, and food activists, the program offers pragmatic strategies to rebuild the connections between diet, culture, faith, the environment and community well-being, with a focus on the deep connection between mindful eating, social justice and sustainability.
Please check our Mindful Eating for the Beloved Community website for more information.

The end goal is supporting diversity from a social-economic perspective.
