Psychology, Biology, and the Politics of Food

Yale University offers Open Yale Courses on a variety of topics and I was thrilled when my friend Lorrie sent me the link to this course

The Psychology, Biology, and Politics of Food

The course is taught by

Kelly D. Brownell is Professor of Psychology, Epidemiology, and Public Health, and Director of the Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity at Yale, where he also served as Chair of the Department of Psychology and Master of Silliman College….Time magazine listed Kelly Brownell among “The World’s 100 Most Influential People” in its special Time 100 issue featuring those “…whose power, talent or moral example is transforming the world.” Taken from the Open Yale Courses website

The 23 class sessions are each about an hour long and available in audio and video formats.

And they’re free.

I’ve done extensive continuing education in the field of  Mind-Body Medicine and often talk about health, food, and wellness issues as a therapist.  I think this course will be enlightening and I hope you join me in learning more about The Psychology, Biology, and Politics of Food.

A big Thank You to Yale University for its commitment to expand access to education.

Take care,

Cynthia
