The Role of the Nervous System in Family Feeding: An Interview with Anna Lutz

Feeding Humans

Today we learn all about the role of the nervous system in our experience and struggles with food and feeding. Registered dietitian Anna Lutz shares her knowledge of the nervous system and a relatively new understanding of our somatic experience known as Polyvagal Theory, bringing a whole new layer of insight and understanding to our experience at the dinner table with our families. This interview is extremely powerful in better understanding our kids' experience, and our own as well, of meal time struggles and some perhaps unexpected ways to address those challenges in ways that not only make meals more peaceful but also promote health and optimal nutrition.
