PRA Well-being: Emotional Wellness Part 2

Policy Research Associates, Inc. is committed to the well-being and wellness of individuals with behavioral health conditions. To help spread information about the importance of the Eight Dimensions of Wellness in recovery, we created a podcast series to address each pillar of wellness. In this podcast, you’ll hear from Dr. Crystal Lee Brandow, Senior Project Associate at PRA and Betty Vreeland, as Dr. Brandow questions Ms. Vreeland to get down to the basics of mindful eating. Ms. Vreeland details topics like the ways in which a mindful approach to eating can help with weight management, decreasing risk factors for diabetes or high blood pressure. Betty has her Master’s of Science in Nursing and is an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse. She’s offered workshops on Mindful Eating at Rutgers and to the Society of Psychiatric Advanced Practice Nurses.
