Welcome to the Center for Mindful Eating
Welcome to The Center for Mindful Eating (TCME). TCME is a forum for professionals who are interested in understanding the value of mindful eating. TCME identifies and provides resources for professionals who wish to help their clients develop healthier relationships with food and eating, and to bring eating into balance with other important aspects of life.

Mindfulness practices have been shown to have a positive impact on many disease states and health concerns, and mindfulness approaches are being increasingly applied to eating and food intake. The benefits of mindful eating are not restricted to physical health improvement alone. Practitioners may find that mindfulness and mindful eating can affect one’s entire life.

The Center for Mindful Eating does not promote one single approach to mindful eating, but is committed to dialog and the sharing of ideas, clinical experience, and research.
