SUMMARY:Make Peace with Food - Wellness Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join our October VIA Wellness Workshop with Cassie DeFeo.\n\n\n.\n\n\nIt’s time for you to make peace with food. Avoiding “Bad Foods” won’t fix your food cravings.\n\n\nMost women\, when dieting\, will unknowingly cause their own food cravings by avoiding the foods they LOVE.\n\n\nWhen you restrict the foods that you love\, it simply heightens your focus on them and your desire for them. Instead start focusing on how to make peace with food\, and learning to cope with your emotions.\n\n\nThe holidays are quickly approaching and for some that may be causing you to worry. Eating a meal and spending time with family and friends shouldn’t be stressful.\n\n\n.\n\n\nCassie DeFeo is a Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist (RDN/LDN) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). After completing her Master’s Degree in education and working in community based counseling programs\, Cassie began to understand the importance of nutrition and wellness and its impact on mental health. At which time\, she returned to school to obtain a BS in Nutrition and Food Science\, going on to complete her RD through internship. This experience has allowed her the opportunity to work with a diverse group of people in both outpatient and inpatient settings. Cassie believes in a person centered\, holistic approach when helping others with depression\, anxiety\, trauma and life’s challenges. In her free time\, Cassie enjoys spending time with husband and pups\, riding bikes\, relaxing on the beach and of course anything that has to do with food.

DESCRIPTION:This gathering is a space where women share entrepreneurial journeys\, uplift one another\, and grow. Empowering\, inspiring\, and transformative\, this is the space for connection and support. Let’s build success\, together. \nHost: \nJo Feng\, Licensed Acupuncturist & Herbalist\nNatural Choice Acupuncture & Wellness\nTopic: Seasonal Rhythms and Health: Understanding Spring in Chinese Medicine — As spring arrives\, many women become more aware of changes in their bodies and daily rhythms—from how they sleep and move\, to how they handle stress\, focus\, and transitions. Traditional Chinese medicine looks closely at how seasonal shifts interact with the body and how these changes may show up differently for women. In this session\, we’ll explore spring from a seasonal and physiological perspective\, using Chinese medicine concepts to better understand the body’s natural patterns and how supportive practices\, including acupuncture\, may help during times of change.\nDate: Wednesday February 25\, 2025\, 5:15 – 6:15 pm\nLocation: 1600 Gloucester Street\, Brunswick \n$5 donation welcomed. \n#VIAEntrepreneursNetwork #WomenInBusiness #CommunityMatters #VIAConnectsUs
