Live and Learn with Rachel Packer
Tues. Jan. 31 (10:30am)

LET’S GET “NOSH-TALGIC” – Our Deep Jewish Connection to Food 

Jewish traditions and food have always gone hand-in-hand from celebrating holidays to life cycle events. The slogan-Taste of a Memory conjures up visions of Bubby at the helm, or Shabbat/holiday dinners, because food and what it represents has always been the fabric of the Jewish/cultural narrative. As a health coach, Rachel regularly observes people experiencing complicated relationships with food.  

In this seminar, we will explore food holistically from its nutritional benefits along with its emotional, spiritual (according to the Talmud) and culturally Jewish aspects (shtetl food, poverty cuisine etc.)-to provide a well-rounded blueprint to ensure a successful wellness journey.  Nosh will be provided, of course!
