The re-certification exam encourages clinicians to review many of the new activities and worksheets in the Craving Change® Resource Library. This private practice dietitian is very excited to use the ‘Distraction-Free Diet’ worksheet. Here’s what she says:
“I love this resource! I have not yet used this tool, however can totally see the value of this approach. There are so many distractions that can occur during a meal time. I think of my pediatric patients, and one of the fundamentals we teach parents is to help their children learn to eat without the use of distractions (i.e., toys, TV). I also plan to use this resource with adult clients as we are all often unaware of the distractions at meal times in our busy lives. Being aware is the first step! Then, it will be up to the client/clinician to formulate a doable action plan to work towards distraction-free meals.”
