We eat every day. For some it is a simple necessity, for others a moment of pleasure - for most it is simply routine. But what we eat and especially how we eat has a direct impact on our well-being and our health. Conscious, mindful eating proves to be beneficial. But how does that work?

We invite you to join us for lunch, accompanied by a mindful eating exercise. Led by Jil Herker, psychologist and employee at the Institute for Integrative Healthcare and Health Promotion (IGVF), participants will be introduced to eating with all their senses. In contrast to the often unconscious intake of food in everyday life, food should be consciously perceived, seen, smelled, heard - and of course tasted!

Those interested can also look forward to a very special experience: the summer field kitchen will set up its tents on the university campus on this day and will be waiting with colorful, freshly harvested vegetables straight from the field. A wonderful opportunity to break the routine and take a closer look at the health-promoting aspects of food.

The event is free of charge. It is not necessary to register in advance.
