Workshop on ADHD and Sensory Processing – food / behavior connection
Workshop on ADHD and Sensory Processing
Many sensory processing issues and related problems begin in your grocery cart!
Did you know that the brand of ice cream, cookie, and potato chip you select could have a direct effect on how you feel, or how your children behave, or their performance in school? Most people pay high prices for low quality food — and then they pay again in the form of behavior, learning or health problems!
By learning some of the tricks of the food industry and making simple changes in the products that go into your grocery cart, you can enjoy food that costs less, tastes better, and could very well make a difference in your child’s schoolwork.
Jane Hersey will take you on an entertaining safari through the supermarket jungle, and will show you how to find the foods your family enjoys, but without the worst of the additives.
Jane is the author of Why Can’t My Child Behave? and the director of the Feingold Association of the United States, a non-profit parent support group that has been helping families since 1976. See www.feingold.org.
The free workshop will be held at the James City/Williamsburg Community Center
