Wellness & Nutrition Education

Eating well is a critical aspect of staying healthy for people living with a mental health disorder. Many people find it challenging to eat a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean protein all the time. However, not getting enough of these foods can affect your energy level, your mood – and your symptoms. Your weight is also directly related to your diet, and obesity affects a multitude of health and mental health problems. Lower self-esteem, self-confidence, depression and other negative feelings are associated with obesity.

The program is designed to address:

• Healthier eating
• Weight loss
• Heart disease
• Gastrointestinal disorders
• Eating disorders

Since each person’s health needs and concerns are different, our program is very personalized for each person. It takes a little effort, but eating a healthy, nutritious diet will benefit you in many ways. You’ll feel better – and your mood will likely improve — and that starts with a healthy diet.
