The Rule that May be Sabotaging Mealtimes

The Rule that May be Sabotaging Mealtimes

In this episode, I am reviewing the 1-bite rule and how it impacts your child’s decision to eat at mealtimes.

We’ll look at the psychology behind their reactions and give you a game plan to help them choose to eat the healthy foods you make, regardless of the rules you decide to use.

Your child’s struggles with food are often about so much more than the food itself. When we understand the nervous system beneath the resistance, we know what to do next to change that resistance into calm bites.
