Tasting Mindfulness

“Eat for Life” that was developed by Dr. Lynn Rossy and Hannah Bush, M.A. and is offered to faculty and staff at the University of Missouri, as well as members of the community. It incorporates mindfulness, the intuitive wisdom of the body and mind, and educational components that support our efforts to be more healthy and conscious about our actions and behaviors. Dr. Lynn Rossy expanded this philosophy into the Tasting Mindfulness community, which uses social media to support people across the world in their quest for a healthy relationship with their food.
