Mindful Life Weight Loss, a White Plains-based holistic weight-loss center, will launch a special program—a hybrid of education and support group—four Saturdays in May at Wainwright House in Rye, NY. Experts in the field of behavior change and mindfulness will guide participants through gentle, holistic weight-loss strategies designed to facilitate lifelong weight management.

Located along the Long Island Sound, the nonprofit Wainwright House is the oldest holistic healing center in the United States. “The beautiful setting is perfect for the spirit of our program, as we integrate mindfulness meditation and nature,” says Kim Gold, founder of Mindful Life Weight Loss. “There are also other healing modalities available at Wainwright that can dovetail with what we offer.” To register, visit Wainwright.org.

Mindful Life Weight Loss focuses on sustainable, gradual weight loss through small changes in daily habits—not just diet. “Mindfulness is a foundational component of the program and the key to unlocking lasting habit change,” Gold says. “The program was created in response to the fact that most people who lose weight ultimately regain it back. We connect people to their most authentic self and link that to their health goals. This provides them with a continual source of motivation.”

Mindful Life Weight Loss also offers group programs at their location in White Plains, NY, at FitPro Medical Weight Loss in New Rochelle, NY, and through individual sessions in person or online. For info, contact Steve Kanney at 914.648.0492 or visit WeightLossWestchesterNY.com.
