Is there too much on your plate: too many responsibilities, obligations, commitments? Do you feel like you have more things to do than time to do it? Do you feel like time for self-care is in short supply? When your ‘plate’ is too full, it can lead to seeking comfort, distraction or reward with food. In this episode of The Wellness Spotlight, I discuss how to identify what’s on your plate, how you’re using food to cope, and how to move some of those things off your plate so you can add in self-care.

Is working from home wrecking your weight loss goals?

A lot of us are now working from home due to the pandemic. This has probably caused major changes to your routine - when and what you eat, your exercise schedule, even how you interact with the people you live with, especially if they are also home all day. 

All these changes can have a negative effect on your weight. It's incredibly easy for the pounds to creep on. Add the enormous stress we’re all feeling and you have a recipe for disaster – and weight gain.

That’s why it’s critically important to develop and practice habits that will keep you healthy and on track with your weight loss goals. 

The webinar will teach you the best strategies for managing your weight while working from home. You’ll learn:
- Meal planning tips
- Exercise routines
- Stress management skills
This webinar is highly interactive with great tips so take notes!
