Nearly Shabbat on the Hill with Dr Anna Colton

To book please click here.

Dr Anna Colton, Clinical psychologist and eating disorder specialist. Anna has just published her first book *”How to Talk to Children about Food”. A new approach to managing food issues, fussiness and eating disorders for ages 0 – 16.

Were you ever told ‘you can’t have dessert until you eat all your vegetables?’ Or to ‘be grateful for your meal’? Or perhaps you yourself have said ‘Mummy’s on a diet so she can’t eat that’ or ‘Daddy is fat, you don’t want to be like me’. We may not realise, but we are constantly communicating our thoughts on food to our children.

Anna will guide us through a judgement- and shame-free journey from pregnancy to a child’s adolescence with accessible scientific and psychological understandings. She will show us how we formed your relationship with food and gives you the practical, evidence-based tools to instil in children a positive relationship with eating.
